Hemke was born on October,28 in 1986 in a small town in northern germany called Husum.
Already in the very early age of 5 years his large interest in music became apparent. Above all the Songs from the band “roxette” (e.g. sleeping in my car, how do you you, etc.) seemed to have done it to him. With seven years (1993), he took his first classical guitar lessons at musicschool. First successes came already in the next year (1994) where has won the schoolown championchip. So he got the title “Studiomeister 1994”. After 3 ½ years of classical guitar he felt more and more the desire to play music on stage with a rock-band.
He quitted the classic-guitar lessons in the year 1997. In the next 3 years Hemke was teaching himself with books and guitar-instruction videos. Besides he still was on search for a suitable teacher. In 2000 he took his first lessons from guitar-instructor Bent Wolff. One of the best guitarists that the area could offer.
He teached Hemke on many music-styles and techniques.
Out of this knowledge Hemke could find his own style.
Above all guitarists as e.g. Andy Timmons, Thomas Blug or Joe Satriani shaped and inspired him very much and they do still. For his age Hemke worked and played with many bands and musicians. He also was hired for some studio-jobs.
Until today the biggest success was the participation at JEMfest germany (www.jemfest.com), which is the annual charity event of guitar-legend Steve Vai.
In 2007 Hemke took part in the "Pop Course" of the Hamburg University of Arts.
