Album Notes

After a few years of studying classical guitar -in my preteen years- I heard bands like: Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Santana, Led Zeppelin etc. And my music style took a dramatic change. I consider myself to be an acoustic guitarist but I also enjoy getting loud with the electric. As a matter of fact I collect vintage electric guitars, which I use on all of my recordings. My recording studio's walls are covered with vintage electric guitars; it is definitely my dream man-cave. My writing style is to lay down an acoustic guitar track - usually a picking style. Then I build on that acoustic, (almost classical), picking foundation by adding crunchy electric rhythm tracks, with one or more lead tracks using a vintage hollow body guitar to optimize the feedback. In many of the songs you will hear a synth transitioning you from bridge to chorus and then back to a pretty acoustic (but not too pretty) guitar accompanied by violin, cello or similar. The drums are manipulated in a very unique musical style by Al Dias while the songs are pulled together and wrapped up by our vocalist Maddy Streicek with her rich involving style.

Cheers!
