Strat-O-Sphere by Granfelt Blug & Engelien, released 8 November 2024. This version of Strat-O-Sphere comes as a 1xLP. -

*Blug, Granfelt & Engelien: A Heavenly Guitar Match* The exceptional guitarists Thomas Blug and Ben Granfelt share a deep-rooted friendship that began at the Frankfurt Musikmesse in the late 1990s. Since then, they have frequently collaborated musically, with Thomas even featuring as a guest on Ben's solo album *Melodic Relief* (2012). In 2019, they were invited to tour as part of Martin Engelien's GO MUSIC, which turned out to be a tremendous success. Now, this captivating collaboration is set to continue! The pinnacle of their creative synergy from this extraordinary experience is embodied in a joint album titled *STRAT-O-SPHERE*, which not only showcases their impressive musical prowess but also their ability to craft harmonious jam sessions and create outstanding songs. The album is set to be released on November 8, 2024, right in time for their upcoming tour consisting of 16 concerts. Ben Granfelt, with an illustrious history of world tours with bands like Wishbone Ash and the Leningrad Cowboys, and 20 solo albums to his name, expresses his joy in collaborating with Thomas Blug. On stage, the harmonies of their guitars blend into a captivating soundscape, driven by intense musical dialogues. Thomas Blug, known as the Stratking of Europe (a title awarded by Fender in 2004 as the best Stratocaster player in Europe), has also released numerous solo albums and skillfully juggles his role as the founder of Bluguitar-a company specializing in guitar amplifier design-with his artistic endeavors. Whether performing with his band Blug Plays Hendrix or his power trio Rockanarchie, Thomas always finds a chance to showcase his virtuoso guitar playing. Martin Engelien, the creative force behind the GO MUSIC concerts, is a well-established name in the German music scene as a bassist, producer, and musician. His long-term collaborations with renowned artists such as Klaus Lage and Albert Mangelsdorff highlight his impressive versatility.
