Thomas Blug - guitar player

I first discovered Thomas Blug's music in 2004. It was his soulful and tasteful guitar playing on the track 'Love Crimes' that immediately grabbed my attention. Thomas, with his faithful Stratocaster, is a player of skill and subtlety. His technique and tonal dynamics are an inspiration.

I had opportunity to say hello and have a chat with Thomas at the Wembley Guitar Show, London, in November 2006 - not only is Thomas a great guitarist, he's a friendly bloke too!
