Richard Koechli is a professional roots-musician from Switzerland. He has played with many well known artists such as Larry Garner („I'll never forget your slide-guitar!“), Philipp Fankhauser, Hank Shizzoe, Blues Max, Lilly Martin, Jens Krüger, Yvonne Moore, Polo Hofer, Max Lässer, Reto Burrell and many more. He is a regularly sought after studio musician and has also been engaged as producer for ceveral Swiss artists. Richard is also internationally known for the successful guitar-books he has written and released under AMA Publishing; “Slide Guitar Styles”, “Best in the West” (translated in English and distributed by MELBAY) and the award-winning release “Masters of Blues Guitar” (BEST GERMAN EDITION 2011, translated in English and distributed by MELBAY).
In 2002, Koechli had the creative vision to combine Celtic-Folkmusic with the Blues. He went on to produce the album “Blue Celtic Mystery” (MARA Records, AMA 626635). “Highly recommended!” (Glen Clifford, celtic-musicians.net). “He takes the myths of our lands and adds music that retains a hint of the ancient but is truly 21st century in style. He concocts new tales for our timeless times!” (Nicky Rossiter, www.rambles.net ). ??Koechli was a guitarist and instrumental-composer for a long time, but now he definitely seems to be on his way as a Singer-Songwriter. Together with his solid and brilliant backup-band “Blue Roots Company”, Koechli recorded the album “laid-back” (MARA Records, AMA 626668) in 2008. This album presents Richard in his best Singer-Songwriter manner and as a master of Slide guitar. Roots music at its finest, in two languages (French and English). Koechli puts together the spirit of all his inspirations: from Blind Willie Johnson, Fred Mc Dowell and Elmore James to Hank Williams, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, from Gary Rafferty, Zachary Richard, Eric Clapton and Randy Newman to … his biggest influences: the laid-back-Masters J.J. Cale and Mark Knopfler.
Between 2008 - 2010, Koechli played more than 180 club-gigs in Switzerland and wrote his award-winning book “Masters of Blues Guitar”. In 2011 it was the right time to follow his Blues-roots and produce two real Blues-albums, dedicated to the pioneers of Afro-American Folk Blues: HOWLIN' WITH THE BAD BOYS (2011, Nation Music, NB 0262) and STILL HOWLIN (live, 2013, Nation Music, NB 0381). “Brilliantly delivered original compositions, deeply rooted in traditional blues - Richard Koechli bows before the legends and gets every blues-loving soul moving” (Guido Schmidt, Founder of Lucerne Blues Festival). Koechli won the SWISS BLUES AWARD 2013 at the Basel Blues Festival and the SWISS FILM AWARD 2014 (best soundtrack), produced the jubilee-song „Lucerne is a Blues Town“ for the 20th Lucerne Blues Festival 2014, where he played on the main stage (Grand Casino). 2015 he released a new double-album („Searching for the Blues“, solo concert-recording and soundtracks) – and finally published his first music-historical german novel „Dem Blues auf den Fersen“ (tredition Verlag). 2016, he released the new guitar-book „Die etwas andere Gitarrenschule“ (tredition Verlag), the music-audiobook „Dem Blues auf den Fersen“ and the new single “Six String Spell” (dedicated to Mark Knopfler). Actually, Richard Koechli works for a new singer-songwriter album.
