18. Grevenbroicher Gitarrenwochen - Rob Collins & Paddy Boy
The tube Rob Collins (born 1972) is at home in rock, pop & blues rock. He regularly toured with Martin Engelien’s (Klaus Lage Band, Bröselmaschine, …) "Go Music" sessions, stood and stands on stage with greats of rock history such as Mel Gaynor (Simple Minds, …) and is a permanent member of various bands in the Lower Rhine, with which he regularly makes the stages nationwide unsafe. His flexible and expressive voice captivates the listener, enchants them, but also equally lets the room roar. For several years, he has been the new frontman of the German blues rock formation "Hot & Nasty".
Guitarist Paddy Boy (born 1982) has been active as a guitarist in various bands of different styles since the age of 14. He works professionally as a studio and live guitarist and gives private guitar lessons in his own school called "Paddy’s Gitarrenunterricht" in Mönchengladbach. His guitar playing is influenced by blues, rock, folk, and fusion of his heroes Rory Gallagher, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Michael Landau, Neil Young, Robert Johnson, Lowell George, and Keith Richards. Live and/or in the studio, he has worked with and for Mars Saibert (Unter Uns, ZweiOhrKüken), Percival & Pamela Falcon (The Voice Of Germany), the soundtrack for the film "Ascension Day – Ausgelöscht", Bea Larson (WDR4), Miami Voice (Universal Records), the Blues Brothers Revival Band, Borussia Mönchengladbach, and Uli Haider (Gunter Gabriel Production). He also plays sounds for test reports of the musician trade magazine "tools4music" in the studio for equipment from well-known companies such as SPL, Rode, Shure, and Neumann. Paddy is an endorser for amplifiers from the company Roots and effect pedals from the companies Sweetspot Guitars and DanDrive.
