Band Members: Only me doing all the parts.
Influences: I have many influences to playing the guitar. Ill start off with Charlie Christian who influenced all jazz guitarists in the mid 1900s. I really like his way of improvising and soling. I was also influenced by Django Reinhardt, one of the greates jazz guitarists. Even after two of his finguers where dissabled during the mid of his carrer, he developed a new way of playing and improvising using three fingers in the fret hand, and still outstand his rivals. I really like listening to Steve Vai, i really enjoy the way he makes the guitar talk. I was greatly influenced by Paco De Lucia, an outstanding Spanish guitar player. He has been the most influential to what i do. I hope to reach his standards one day.
Sounds Like: My music sounds like everything in life, from nature to the everyday problems you face. I use the guitar as a way of expressing my feelings, or the mood im in. This way i have come up with different compositions and ideas. The guitar for me is like a way to relax, and let go of everything that is holding me back, or stressing me. I try to express and show all these feelings when i play a note or a chord, depending on how hard i strum, or what key i play in.
