Independent Guitarist/ Sessionplayer with NEW CD

About Me

Hi,
I..ve been working as guitarist/ recording artist for the last 18 years and just finished my 4th instrumental soloalbum Walkabout.
GET IT NOW!!!

I started playing guitar at the age of 11 and have been playing ever since then.
Took some classical lessons first for about 5 years.
After two years of playing I figured that it didn..t sound that good playing along all these bluesrecords on a nylonstring, so I had to get me an electric guitar.
Early influences only blues...Albert King, BB. King, Albert Collins, Otis Rush, John Mayall..s Bluesbreakers (feat. Peter Green, Mick Taylor, Eric Clapton).
Played in numerous bands and discovered players like John Scofield, Larry Carlton, Steve Vai, Jeff Beck.....
Spent a year in the US and discovered more players like Scott Henderson, Allan Holdsworth, Joe Diorio....
