Robin Trower, David Gilmour and Stevie Ray Vaughan have had the most impact on me. I like and respect so many guitarists and other musicians from all genres such as BB King, McCoy Tyner, Mato Nanji, Joe Bonamassa, Steven Wilson, Porcupine Tree, Derek Trucks, Robben Ford, Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, Earth Wind and Fire, Billy Gibbons...and many more.

Hi, and thanks for checking in. My name is Brian and I write atmospheric, experimental music. I stopped playing guitar in my early teens and never picked one up again until several years ago. Now all the music that has been bottled up in my head over the last three decades is slowly starting to come out. I started this page as an outlet for my music and future projects.
I love the Blues and basically anything to do with guitars and gear. My favorite guitarists are David Gilmour for his unimaginable phrasing and note bending, BB King for his sweet vibrato and Stevie Ray Vaughan for the raw energy and emotion he poured into every note he played. I also enjoy many other genres of music. I grew up listening to everything from Bluegrass, Jazz, Funk, Gospel, Rock and of course the Blues.
My own music is a combination of those many different styles and influences. I try to make music that is from the heart in hopes of creating a peaceful and atmospheric experience. I just try to play soulfully, with all the emotion and feeling that I can draw upon, hoping it is conveyed to the listener. I am also guided by a "less is more" philosophy, concentrating on the notes that are not played, to allow a song to have space and breathe.
The songs on my player are all work in progress tracks. I am currently in the process of finishing them as well as writing new material. I will be adding new tracks periodically so keep checking back.

It has recently been confirmed by Roger's manager, Mark Fenwick, that Roger is "considering" touring The Wall in 2010 and 2011, though there is yet to be a concrete answer on the matter.
I said a prayer for you today, And know The Creator must have heard. I felt the answer in my heart, although He spoke no word. I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind. I asked Him to send treasures, of a far more lasting kind. I asked that He'd be near you, at the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings, and friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you, in all things great and small, But it was for His loving care, I prayed for most of all. Hugs, Peace, Love, Light..."MorningStar"
I Pray all is well with you and your loved ones. I am very grateful for your wonderful friendship. So, I am sending Angels to watch over you.
Yesterday is but a dream, And tomorrow is but a vision. But today well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
