Gene Schwartz & The G Force Bio
Hank Hess is a lifelong drummer who began his journey in high school as a member of the Unfortunate Sons band. In 1969, his drumming skills secured him a position with the northeast Ohio band Pig Iron, followed by the Mr. Stress band. In the early ’80s, he joined The Elm Street Blues band and continues to perform in the local music scene and at wineries around Cleveland and Madison, Ohio.
Charlie Christopherson demonstrates his fluid technical skill and heart-felt soul as a result of a lifetime of music. Christopherson’s technical proficiency derives from classical violin training from ages six through 12. He studied music theory at the Cleveland Institute of Music. As a natural transition from his formal training, at age 13, he was inspired by Jimi Hendrix’s music and began to play the guitar. His commitment and desire to play comes from an absolute love of Hendrix’s music. Christopherson also studied engineering basics at Beachwood Recording Studios.
