Lead guitarist? Song guitarist!

Yes, they do exist, the numerous and sometimes also known German lead guitarist. Genreübegreifend they are nationally and internationally active. Whether as strings runabout of tougher gaits, sideman in the studio or textbook author. If we examine this mass of musicians on additional vocals competence reduces the amount drastically.

Both combines this likeable man from East Westphalia, and there is even an increase: All items are presented in German and thus the pun has song guitarist versus lead guitarist fully justified. As a song guitarist I interpret a musician who makes his talent and skills on stringed instrument at the service of the song and not just limited to his solo part.

In all 11 songs, mostly originals Schröder plays a very relevant song rhythm and lead guitar. In epic and sweeping solo runs will happily waived, I personally recognize influences here and there a Steve Lukather.

Listeners who should expect from the disc solo work without singing in the style of Joe Satriani or Steve Vai check advance from Oliver Schröder is the right supplier for this fraction.

Lyrically (lyrics in the line notes) fires Schröder already one or the other tip against some elites our society (out tip: A Few Good Men), but like it very much. Bissig, but not the do-gooders. I could already hear Oliver Schröder live as part of regular sessions, now I hope he possibly promoted the studio material with a small tour of northern Germany.
