JAN PHILIPP MEYER e-guitar [vol. 1]

A man, an amplifier, a guitar - and a lot of music!

In Meyers music bulging life is.

His guitar tells, sings, growls, suffers, floats, rejoices.

Time powerfully orchestral, sometimes melodious tunefully.

Always excitingly, unexpectedly, full energy and inspirations.

Meyers music touches and ties up. Is well-spoken and completely of pressure at the same time. One feels involuntarily a motor activity.Music for the senses and the intellect equally. Jan Philipp Meyer listen makes fun!
