About Guitarist Jens Mayer
See Jens' newest Pop Project JCT here:
Known for his work with Moerlen's Gong in 2000, Jens Mayer has established himself as a tasteful guitarist. Always playing from the heart,
delivering great tone, incorporating soulful bendings and never overplaying, Jens just knows what is right for a song.
Yet when it is time to burn, he uses his virtuoso liquid playing style to transport strong emotions no matter which music genre (Rock, Fusion, Jazz, Funk, Soul, Country, R'n'B, Salsa etc..)
In 2008, Jens released his first self-titled album "Steppin'up" which features among oters a guest appearence from Jean-Luc Ponty/Chick Corea guitarist Jamie Glaser.
Jens has recorded and played privately with Jack Thammarat and has studied and played privately with guitar giants Tom Quayle and Alex Hutchings.
Jens has also studied with Greg Howe, Bruce Bouillet, Jack Gardiner, Marco Sfogli and Josh Meader and attended numerous workshops with Frank Gambale, Mike Stern, Andy Timmons, Nick Johnston and many other guitar greats.
In 2019 Jens performed together with Jack Thammarat on his composition "Waiting for Jack".
In March 2019 Jens joined Martin Engelien's GoMusic for Martin Engelien's GoMusic Tour 03/2019. Due to the huge success a follow up GoMusic Tour was made in April 2022.
When not gigging or producing for his own label JC music in his studio, Jens is constantly working on evolutionizing his playing style.
Jens is Zoom Creator and plays Furch guitars.
You can catch Jens live with JCT, Go Music, Katie Grant, Mind of Blue, and many other artists.
