Robert DiMaio

Music is infinite, and great musicians like Robert DiMaio know this. His approach to music is completely open, providing a forum for diversity and creativity to thrive. “My music is a reflection of numerous influences and inspirations… You will find rock, funk, soul, blues, jazz, gospel and classical influences in my music. I don’t approach these genres as a purist. I approach them as an inquisitive and excitable tourist.”This instrumental artist paints his expressions with his guitar, and realizes that his music is part of a bigger picture. Because music is the most important thing in the world to DiMaio, he concentrates his talents on portraying his stories and imagination into everything he creates. DiMaio is truly a musician that pushes the boundaries of genre and imagination. With musical tendencies toward the sounds of Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, DiMaio is still able to forge his own, unique sound within his instrumentals.DiMaio’s first CD was entitled Deepin the Mystery, released in 2003. His second, Robert DiMaio & The Beauty Junkies, came out in 2007, and is said to feature DiMaio’s best writing and playing to date. He was featured in Guitar Player Magazine and received rave reviews in various other magazines like 20th Century Guitar Magazine for this album. He will also be featured on a compilation from the Bohemian Productions label in the near future. The praises received are most likely due to the high standard that DiMaio holds his music to, as he believes “that music is sacred. It must be treated with respect and everything should serve that philosophy.”Robert DiMaio and his live band are currently performing around the Asheville, North Carolina area where they reside. DiMaio has been steadily building a local fan base, and has already begun working on the next album. To his fans and audiences, DiMaio says, “Let’s save the music together!” With DiMaio at the forefront, the future of music is promising.Ridin' Above

..-Hey there Robert, Dude, how'd you swing that whole deal with the devil thing? I've tried, and he just laughs and says "I already OWN you, so you can keep on sucking". I hope that's metaphorical for my guitar skills, and not foreshadowing my eternity... Anyway, however you swung it, it was a BARGAIN! You've got amazing taste, and an awesome tone. You've got serious range too - I dig the swampiness of Down That Devil's T (hroat/ Tuchie - whatever). The FUNK is where it's at for me though, so Tongue and Ridin Above get my nod as favs. (Although the Disco infected Imagine Your Lover (In Bed With Satan?) is a great groove too. Overall, you ROCK! (Hmmm, if the devil won't deal, maybe I should try the other side!) Please stop by sometime and let us know what you think of Postpunkpopfuncountryfunk. We'd love to hear from you! -Larry from Karma Generator I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts! Myspace Graphics
