    Artist description
    Gunter was born in 1956 in Vienna-Austria (no, not Australia), which is a tiny country in Europe. He was introduced to music in a very young age because his father was an Opera Singer. When he was 6 years old he started to participate in the Opera “Tosca.” Well, it wasn’t a big role, but he was in. Having reached the school age he finally got some Piano lessons. ---------------------At the age of 14 he started to learn how to play bass. It wasn’t a wish from him to do so. His best friend, who was a year older than him had an electric guitar and he wanted to put together a band. Since he also had a Bass guitar but nobody who could or wanted to play Bass - only Gunter was left to do so. That’s when he started to play bass - and never stopped. -----------------------The next years went by in practicing and rehearsals. Finally in the age of 18 years he got his first professional equipment.After finding the right musicians, lots of rehearsals, etc. “Imagine” (that was the name of the band) was ready for the public. Within a short time “Imagine” had grown to a well known band in and around Vienna. After a while Imagine also went into the recording studio and recorded our first record. At that time one of Austria’s well known songwriters - Charley Kriechbaum - wrote the Lyrics to one of the songs. The other song was composed by “Imagine” themselves. Although the single didn’t make it to a gold record you still could hear it many times on the radio stations. Like it is with many bands, “Imagine” broke up after the success had finally arrived. -----------------After Gunters experience with “Imagine” he played with many good artists. He would not miss the times with Herbert Windisch (Austrian Songwriter & Singer), the Jam Sessions with Gunter Dzikowsky (Keyboard Player for Wolfgang Ambros), or the work in the different Recording Studios across Austria and Germany. For quite some time he also played with a top rated Rock’n Roll Band named “Cadillac,” which was originally from Yugoslavia. It was around 1985 when Yugoslavia wasn’t involved in any war or so, that the “Cadillac” hat a # 1 Hit titled "Walk away, Walk away." -------------------For many years now Gunter calls Las Vegas home. If you’ve never been here take your time and visit. Las Vegas offers a wide variety of music stars, bands and entertainment. All the big names are playing here and believe me there is always a concert to attend. ----------------Gunter has played on many stages in LasVegas, till he met James Quill Smith. ---------At the moment he plays bass in the James Quill Smith Band. ------------More Cappucino is Gunter Wolfram's newest Solo Project! ------ ENJOY!
