In 2024, German guitarist and singer Henrik Freischlader performed at the Megève Blues Festival in the French Alps. A respected figure of European blues-rock, Freischlader is known for his expressive guitar playing and a phrasing inherited from the great masters, from the Chicago electric tradition to British blues. Filmed in full, this live concert conveys a dense set in which long instrumental builds sit beside sincere singing and restrained ballads. Backed by his band, the artist unfolds the dynamics typical of live blues — tension and release, impassioned solos and deep grooves. This live concert film testifies to the good health of the festival blues scene in the mid-2020s, carried by musicians who uphold the heritage while stamping it with their own personality. For lovers of guitar and blues-rock, this full concert by Henrik Freischlader at Megève offers a generous performance, technically solid and full of emotion, captured in a mountain setting well suited to listening.
