Album: FUZZ UNIVERSE (CD)

Year: 2010
Media type: CD

FUZZ UNIVERSE is my third guitar instrumental album. Being a fan of pop music and rock bands, I am a reluctant convert into the art of instrumental rock music. But after touring with Joe Satriani's G3, I witnessed firsthand the power of the electric guitar to take center stage and rock the audience. Playing my guitar-driven songs live was a blast! This discovery led to a huge increase in my touring as a solo artist. In the last couple of years, I've played nearly 150 shows all over the world, with my guitar leading the way.

Being so immersed in the world of guitar made me realize that I live in a FUZZ UNIVERSE. Every generation of guitar players has their own terminology for the rock guitar sound: Distortion, Overdrive, Gain, Crunch, Saturation, Drive etc. For me, the word is FUZZ.
