In the early 1990s, he gained a second foothold in music. He has since released several albums; he is a singer in the band The Screen, while Mick Rogers (Manfred Mann's Earth Band) and Thomas Blug are guitar players. The two ex-musicians of Gary Moore's band Pete Rees (bass) and Graham Walker (drums) are also represented.

Ochsenknecht stars in the television film series Der Bulle und das Landei, playing a police commissioner who was transferred to the rural Eifel area, at irregular intervals since 2009.
