"phenomenal ...breathtaking ...masterly""
They are fantastic!" (Tommy Emmanuel)
Almost overnight, the guitar duo “Hands on Strings” have elevated themselves to the international top class. At the same time both musicians shaped through their virtuosity and dynamic along with an exceptional sound richness a new definition of guitar music. STEPHAN BORMANN (the guitarist of the Cristin Claas Acoustic Band, also known for his collaboration with Volker Schlott and Nils Landgren) and THOMAS FELLOW (the other half of the European top duo “Friend ‘n Fellow”) create a musical highlight of a exceptional kind: a virtuosic Jazz guitarist and an acoustic ‘one man band’ meet in the middle of their musical worlds. World music, Jazz and European concert music are only few elements which are linked to a delightful ambience of sounds in the works of HANDS ON STRINGS. They masterfully perform their sensational interpretations of classics such as “Libertango” as well as their own works (“9 pm” – awarded with the Gellert Prize). Their latest CD “Offroad” was euphorically celebrated and critically acclaimed. Furthermore the guitar duo have been invited to prestigious festivals throughout Europe and the United States.
