Henrik Freischlader is a German blues guitarist, singer-songwriter, producer, and self-taught multi-instrumentalist from Wuppertal. The German guitarist and singer has shared stages with B.B. King, Gary Moore, Peter Green, Johnny Winter, Joe Bonamassa, and the Tedeschi Trucks Band and has become an indispensable part of the international blues scene following numerous tours across Europe. He often blends musical styles such as rock, jazz, soul, and funk, although blues forms the foundation of all his songs.

In 2004 he founded the Henrik Freischlader Band and released his first album "The Blues" in 2006. The multi-instrumentalist has released eleven studio albums and seven live albums since 2006. Current band members are Theofilos Fotiadis (bass, backing vocals), Björn Krüger (drums, backing vocals), and Moritz "Mo" Fuhrhop (Hammond organ). The motto "KEEP PLAYING" makes every concert a unique experience, as each evening is different—improvisation happens, free jamming takes place, and the setlist is regularly expanded.

In February 2017, the cultural initiative Kulturinitiative Wermelskirchen e.V., a nonprofit association, took over Haus Eifgen and converted it into a "music, culture, and community center." Over 100 concerts annually have since filled the venue with life and made it one of the most popular live music venues in North Rhine-Westphalia.
