Axel Schultheiß - Free Mind

Axel Schultheiss‘ path to the acoustic guitar began with lessons with John Pearse and the notable recording of “6 & 12 String Guitar” by Leo Kottke. From there he went on to a musical acquaintance with the formerly popular guitar duo of Martin Kolbe and Ralf Illenberger. Nowadays, his mightily constructed sound constructions are both multifaceted and subtle at the same time. Those who know the music of Kolbe/Illenberger will delight in “Free Mind”, because Axel Schultheiss, in his most individual manner, continues their legacy of the flow of two continuously interweaving guitar lines. His compositions, made up of rhythmic layers and great meditative spreads, are a very special guitaristic experience.
