About Vincent Dellwig
-Bio-
Vincent Dellwig is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter from Germany, known for his powerful blues-driven riffs, expressive guitar solos, and unexpectedly intimate vocal moments. His music combines emotional depth with raw energy, blending blues, modern rock, and atmospheric soundscapes into a style of his own.
Inspired by legendary guitar players such as Joe Bonamassa, Gary Moore, Simon McBride, and Richie Kotzen, Dellwig blends blues, modern rock, and melodic guitar-driven soundscapes into a style of his own. His songs reflect past chapters of life — honest, emotional, and carried by a strong sense of authenticity.
In 2024, he successfully completed his Master’s degree in Popular Music with a focus on Performing Artist and guitar at the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg. Alongside his own project, he also works as a session and live guitarist.
Whether on record or on stage, Vincent Dellwig and his band deliver music that is loud, atmospheric, and deeply expressive — turning every song into a story and every live show into an experience.
