Rollik
Hi - my name is Roland and I am mainly dedicated to acoustic music, but I play a little electric guitar too. To be honest I rediscovered acoustic guitarplaying 3 years ago after attending a concert of Tommy Emmanuel. Meanwhile I play often in open tunings like DADGAD or EADEAE and enjoy writing my own stuff.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
See above
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes! Acoustic only smaller venues, while I play all kind of venues with my band. Yeah - I love playing in front of people. Special moments - mmmhhh, once I played for some people and the women next to me started crying cause she was touched by the tune.
