Hans van Lier (born in Groningen, Netherlands 1961) is a versatile guitar player. His solo's are often lyrical, but he can also really storm. This always happens with great melodic sense. He masters various styles, and he is not afraid of rock 'n' roll. He is self-taught as a guitar player, and he began playing the electric guitar at the age of fourteen and he soon did learn a lot of chords. On a given day he discovered a nice 'run', which he soon began to use as a basis for his playing. It turned out that he discovered the blues scale on his own. In this same year he did his first gig in Appelscha (Friesland, the Netherlands).

Hans got a lot of inspiration from his direct environment where a lot of music was made. He studied the records of blues players like Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, Elmore James, Luther 'Guitar' Johnson and Stevie Ray Vaughan. After a few years as a rhythm guitar player, Hans went solo at the age of eighteen. During the following years he worked with various blues bands. In 1978 he entered the Dutch Guitar Championship in Paradiso and finished third.

Hans van Lier has done a lot of work together with female singers. He toured with Lia Ona in Denmark, and Gina de Boer (the Dutch Janis Joplin) has been in his band too. He has worked with Hanneke Kappen (recorded a CD with her), Inki de Jonghe (King Lier), Rosa King from Amsterdam and Tineke Schoemaker (well known from 'Barrelhouse', one of the most successful blues bands in the Netherlands) among others. Together with Tineke, Hans was the best during a jazz and blues festival in Friesland.

Hans has also done some work with male singers like B.J. Hegen, Lourens Leeuw, Hans Dulfer, Marcel Kapteijn (Ten Sharp), Eddie C. Campbell, as well as with Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon - more familiar as Double Trouble of Stevie Ray Vaughan - and guitar player Jan Akkerman.

Personnel: Hans van Lier (guitar); Marjon van Dijk (vocals); Bennie Timmer (guitar); Lourens Leeuw (bass); Harrie Groenewold (drums).
