ABOUT
We are Varidian, a Swiss band consisting of three members - Simon, Jonathan and Cornel.
The music we create depicts our thoughts, feelings, experiences and everything else that comes along with it.
We would be honoured if you had a listen. It'll help us avoid the dreaded fate of actually finishing university. So that way, you'd be doing us a huge favor. Win-win, right?
Members
SIMON WEIBEL
Guitar & Bass
Simon began his music journey at the age of 7 after arbitrarily picking up a toy guitar on his brothers' birthday. Even though not having been love at first sight, the guitar eventually became a way of expressing emotions otherwise suppressed. As of today, Simon has created his own style inspired by genres such as neo-soul, gospel and rock.
JONATHAN LANDTWING
Vocals, Piano, Keys & Drums
Since he was 3 years old, rhythm has always been Jonathan's passion. He turned everything from spatulas to sofas into drums. Since the age of 6 he has been learning drums and piano, winning numerous competitions and has been active in many different ensembles reaching from classical orchestras, over choirs to rock- and Jazz Bands.
CORNEL FÖLLMI
Drums
After spending hours next to the drummer in his father's band, Cornel realized early on that he wanted to play the drums himself. His music career began at the age of 6 when he attended his first lessons. Since then, Cornel has played in various orchestras, big bands and bands. He has been playing with Varidian since 2025.
