Jens Hausmann writes and sings clever songs from the heart with a more than solid musicianship there is no time where it's finished. This is vintage music: something that never goes out of style, joyful, playful made with lips & fingers. This doesn't mean being against new technical achievements, but isn't it great if it works without plugging things for half an hour? It's a much more intimate and personal thing, as life should be! So, if you're fed up with fast-food and still have an attention span longer than a few minutes stick around! ...

1. jason dennie
Jason Dennie grew up around acoustic music. The sound of acoustic guitar, mandolin, fiddle, and banjo were pretty common and familiar to his ears by the time he actually had an interest in playing anything himself. Guitar was what he chose and while early influences could be named; Tony Rice, Doc Watson, Stephen Stills and Neil Young, the music that would come from him would always be a unique combination of everything he'd heard.
His main references were from the Bluegrass world, after all, that's what most of his family played. He had a direct link to the heart of Bluegrass with his Grandfather being good friends with the man who had 'started it all' Mr. Bill Monroe, and an Uncle who filled the role of banjo player for Monroe's Bluegrass Boys in the early 70's. Jason can remember time spent at many Bluegrass festivals as a child and the sounds of Tony Rice's guitar and distinct voice filling the house...to this day Tony Rice is still his father's favorite guitarist.
After a couple of years of learning his way around the instrument, he discovered Leo Kottke and probably had the same reaction alot of people have..."all of that sound, feel, and emotion coming from one guitar... can that be done?" 'Instrumental' music was already coming out of his fingers...' songs without words' everyone would say. But realizing it was an art that could stand on it's own was a huge revelation and since then a constantly developing journey of what can be said through music coming out of one guitar.
At the time his first cd was released, COLLECTION OF SOUNDS, Jason had begun collaborating with other musicians, in more of a supportive role as a lead guitarist, and was developing another side of his playing. From soft and subtle accompaniment to all out blues or bluegrass oriented jams ....it could all be described as acoustic or folk music to a degree. It led to a lengthy partnership with Noah Hunt for 4 years. Noah is now the lead vocalist for blues phenom Kenny Wayne Shephard, but the two did not split ways before recording an album together. LONG BLACK TRAIN was a great effort to capture what Noah and Jason did so well together in their performances and continues to be a 'best kept secret album' ...

4. randy rhoads
Randall William Rhoads was born on December 6, 1956 at St. John’s Hospital in Santa Monica, California. With one brother (Doug) and one sister (Kathy), Randy was the youngest of three. When Randy was 17 months old his father, William Arthur Rhoads, a public school music teacher, left and all three children were raised by their mother, Delores Rhoads. William Rhoads would later remarry, producing Dan and Paul,... "half" brothers to Randy.
Randy started taking guitar lessons around the age of 6 or 7 at a music school in North Hollywood called Musonia (pictured), which was owned by his mother. His first guitar was a Gibson (acoustic) that belonged to Delores Rhoads’ father. Randy and his sister (Kathy) both began folk guitar lessons at the same time with Randy later taking piano lessons (at his mother’s request) so that he could learn to read music. Randy’s piano lessons did not last very long. At the age of 12, Randy became interested in rock guitar ...

Dodi Battaglia: guitar:
Dodi Battaglia nasce a Bologna il 1 giugno 1951 da una famiglia di musicisti, il padre suonava il violino, lo zio la chitarra, il nonno il mandolino e il pianoforte.
Inizia a studiare musica e a suonare la fisarmonica a cinque anni, ancora prima di leggere e scrivere. Studia questo strumento fino all'età di 14 anni poi un giorno, ascoltando un brano degli Shadows, decide che da quel momento in poi era la chitarra la sua vera passione.
Suona in vari gruppi locali fra cui i Meteors che accompagnavano Gianni Morandi, poi il grande incontro con i Pooh nel 1968.
Diventa così membro del più popolare e longevo gruppo italiano.
Inizia a suonare anche il pianoforte e a comporre sviluppando uno stile particolare che rispecchia due approcci strumentali diversi. Sua è la voce in molti brani dei Pooh fra cui Tanta voglia di lei; il primo vero grande successo del gruppo.
Ma tutto questo non gli fa dimenticare il suo grande amore per la chitarra; inizia cosi a studiare perfezionando uno stile fatto di gusto tecnica virtuosistica e di personalità.
Nel 1986 durante un tour in Germania ottiene il riconoscimento quale "miglior chitarrista europeo" insieme a Ella Fidgerald "miglior cantante".
Anche la critica italiana l'anno dopo gli conferisce il premio quale miglior chitarrista in assoluto. A tutt'oggi rimane un punto di riferimento nel panorama chitarristico italiano.
Molte sono le collaborazioni con altri artisti: Zucchero Vasco Rossi, Gino Paoli, Mia Martini, Raf, Enrico Ruggeri, Franco Mussida, Maurizio Solieri, Tommy Emmanuel e tanti altri.
La Fender, storica azienda produttrice americana di chitarre, ha voluto dedicargli una "Signature Model" una chitarra costruita e messa in commercio su sue specifiche soprannominata "Dodicaster" ...
