Bruce McKenzie's "Aesthetic Melodology" project consists of Bruce McKenzie, who plays the guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, and drum programming. In addition, Bruce plays the Roland guitar synthesizer, which is a trademark part of his musical ingenuity. Bruce invited a close friend and guitar buddy, classical guitarist Felix Marin Jr, who played on track 8, "Aria of Reminiscence"! Look for Felix Marin Jr's first release in 2005! Bruce began playing the guitar at the age of 12 and has performed in many bands to include a jazz band in Dayton, Ohio called "Expressions". Although Bruce actually played bass guitar in this band, he was a major presence in the act that performed in the local Dayton area. Bruce moved to England and continued to play guitar and finally decided to record his own project with the help of a long time friend. At this point, Bruce was on his way to creating countless works of musical passion and creative melodic tunes that have became his signature. Aesthetic Melodology is already being requested at major radio stations in the United States and abroad in places such as Berlin, Germany and London, England. Smooth jazz guitar as good as gold from Mr. Bruce McKenzie! Look for more releases from him in the future!
