| Alrighty,
just to get it right for information. Ben Granfelt is from Finland, he
is a great guitar player and more than 20 years in the business. His
Eighties rockband was named Gringos Locos. Later on he found his home
within the Leningrad Cowboys for quite a few years. And last but not
least, he played his instrument for Wishbone Ash for about six years.
Inbetween and now only the 44 year old guitarist does his solo stuff.
Exspecially here in Germany he established himself within insider
circles. However, he can look back at eight solorecords, three CDs with
Wishbone Ash, five with the Leningrad Cowboys and four longplayers with
the Guitarslingers. Currently he is still promoting his latest CD named
'Sum Of Memories', which is, like the name says, a sort of Best
of...album. A new album is in the works. Unfortunately the Munich dates ain't chosen very luckily, because on this very day, once again soccer is taking most of the attention of the Germans, due to an Champions Leage qualification match between Germany and Czechia. (Germany has won in the end - by the way) But however, you can realize this handycap for the gig, as there are only about 40 musiclovers at this club here to check Ben's finnish guitar philosophy out. He is accompanied by his longterm friend Miri Mjettinen on drums, who has also been with him and Gringos Locos then. And there is Janne Rajala on bass, the new guy.
