Ruben Hoeke Band

Ruben Hoeke started playing the guitar at age fourteen. His childhood dreams of being a professional Football player in the Dutch National football team soon disappeared when he heard the guitar intro to Guns 'n Roses classic `Sweet Child O' Mine'. That’s when he realized what he wanted to be. Inspired by this haunting guitar riff, he decided to trade his football for a guitar. It took about six guitar lessons to find out that he would be better off learning to play by listening to records.
