In 2013 the 68-year-old said that he would not want to go on tour at 70. And yet, in the entire span of his career, he never appeared more at home anywhere than on stage. Especially now with his new album «Old Sock», which he himself says is his most relaxed recording, giving his fans some hope that this blues master might deliver a 20-minute guitar solo on stage. The Blackberry Brandies play American folk, which is an interesting concept, when you think that the duo consists of a former Swiss boxing champion and a former heavy metal man.

«Clapton is God», a fan once sprayed on the wall of an underground station back in 1966. Since then, his was a career with all the ups and downs of a superstar. But one thing was always clear: There are few guitarists in the world who have mastered the blues and the strings as extraordinarily, as soulfully, as richly and yet as lightly as he has. In comparison, Caroline Chevin from Lucerne may have a long road ahead, but the 39-year-old singer is well on her way with pop songs like «Hey World» on all the radio stations.
