Ty Oliver-Made Of Memories
..
Heartstrings-the sophomore release from Guitarist Ty Oliver takes the melodic, emotion filled stylings of 2005's "Healed Through Time" and injects them with a tighter, more dynamic, and confident blend of from the heart melodies, Pop/Rock Songwriting, and Guitar Flash. Featuring guest solo's from some of the underground guitar scenes most talented prospects, Matt Cafissi, and Neil Rambaldi, as well as an appearance by Matt Sotelo of Decrepit Birth. This is Modern Rock Guitar at it's Finest!!

"HEALED THROUGH TIME"
The debut from guitarist Ty Oliver, is a ten song collection of instrumental compositions, ranging from driving melodic rock, to soulful, heartfelt ballads. Inspired by Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, as well as late 80's and early 90's "pop" metal shredders, the Northern California native guitarist has created a collection of music that captures thoughts and feelings, and expresses them without words. While most guitar albums are focused on an overdose of shredding, Ty aims to deliver guitar based music that will please more than just guitar fans. "One of my intentions with this music is to make each song give the listener a particular feeling when listening, happy, sad, reflective, or possibly inspiring, I strive to make music that a person can hopefully relate to, and throw in some flashy guitar work while I'm at it".
"...There are many, many great Artists out there of varying styles and techniques. Ty Oliver not only has total mastery of the instument but delivers "from the heart". Listening to his music is like watching a beautiful dream unfold...you are drawn into it...totally immersed and captivated. It is one of the purest "expressions of the spirit" you will ever experience. Ty is a truly gifted Artist and words fail to express our pride in having such an incredible Talent as part of "our little family". We are truly honored."
-Mills Acoustics - MillsAcoustics.com
"...Ty is one of the most exciting new rock players to hit the scene in years and he is clearly a guitarist that will make his mark. Healed Through Time should be among your top five music purchases this year and for good reason--you're guaranteed to be blown away."

-WChristine Atkinson - RawkGrrl.com
