After years of hard work Guy Verlinde is the Belgian blues pride. And even it may sound like a dusty cliché but he's by far he is "the hardest working performer" within the Belgian blues scene. In five years time: he released 6 albums; signed a record deal with the prestigious labels Parsifal (B) & Dixefrog Records (FR); in 2011 he won the Belgian Blues Awards and represented Belgium at the European Blues Challenge '12 in Berlin (D). Since a few years the European blues scene also discovered Guy Verlinde after several tours in Holland, Germany, France, Austria, Spain, Switzerland, Slowakia, Luxembourg, … Since he started playing the guitar, Guy Verlinde felt attracted to the slide guitar. First influenced by Chris Whitley and later blown away by Hound Dog Taylor it became clear that this was his path to walk. Even though he incorporated the soul of the traditional slide guitar players as Fred McDowell, Bukka White, Elmore James … he also got inspired by contemporary artists like John Mooney, Anders Osborne, Sonny Landreth, Ben Harper and John Butler.
