Roman Hampacher ()
Roman Hampacher started playing guitar as a teenager under the influence of listening to Pink Floyd and King Crimson. However, he was quickly captivated by the virtuosity of the guitar players that the 70s and 80s gave birth to – Steve Vai, Richie Kotzen or Greg Howe, but also Scott Henderson or John McLaughlin, are influences that you can't miss.
