MICHAEL SCHENKER: Audio Interview Available

April 5, 2009

On January 23, 2009, Jason Saulnier of the "GTMO" (Good Time Metal Oldies) radio show conducted an interview with legendary guitarist Michael Schenker. The 15-minute chat is now available for streaming below.

The SCHENKER BARDEN ACOUSTIC PROJECT's first album, "Gipsy Lady", will be released on May 19 via Inakustik.

Almost one year after his phenomenal comeback album "In The Midst Of Beauty" and follow-up tour, guitarist Michael Schenker has collaborated with singer Gary Barden to give the cleverly arranged songs just the touch of soul they need for full impact. And with Michael Voss, Schenker has an experienced producer, a second guitarist as well as a background vocalist on board, who delivers an outstanding performance. Kai Luennemann on percussion completes the team. Using a flamenco guitar with castanets in "Dance Lady Gipsy" conjures up a hot-blooded gypsy dancing before your eyes, while the fiddle and flutes in "Fight For Freedom" transport you to beautiful Ireland.
