One Man Bands

There has always been a tradition of one man bands stretching back years and the initial fascination is always how do they do it or an appreciation of their talent but on closer inspection I have been cynical enough to find faults in their delivery, song writing skills or arrangements to ultimately dismiss them despite their talent but I have recently found one guy who not only plays the one man band role perfectly but also could be an amazing solo artist in his own right.

His name is Bernhoft and he is an exceptional talent. A gifted guitarist and vocalist but also a guy who understands songwriting craft and song composition. It is all very well understanding utilising today's technology regarding samplers and echo pedals but to use them to create more than a just cheap gimmick requires someone who understands and can play music at the basic level we still crave for.

Here is Bernhoft:
