Guitar Breaks news & blog
What a wonderful opportunity to spend quality time with great musicians, witnessing them in their own environment creating and performing original music to such a high standard. That was our experience a couple of days back. The Masterlink Sessions is a community of like-minded creatives.
The brains behind Masterlink, Stefan, Leo and James, create live in-the-studio music videos and host live streams out of Masterlink Studios near London. The nucleus of the studio band is the battle-hardened Redtenbacher’s Funkestra, including legendary drummer Mike Sturgis. On the day we visited the studio we were delighted to discover Scott McKeon was sitting in on six string duties. Scott is such a tasty player with tone for days! The Masterlink Session team have produced videos and recordings for Grammy Award winning artists, UK Voice winners, multi-national companies, legends of the UK music scene and support seriously good upcoming talent from all around the world.
