   About Derek Usher

Derek has over twenty years experience and has recorded on over 11 different albums and projects. Although Derek has Primarily spent his career playing lead guitar in a range of rock bands and continues to play with "She Says Electric" he has developed a sizeable repertoire of finger style acoustic songs and his fans who have heard it have demanded that he record a solo album. Dereks acoustic technique and style is inspired by artists ranging from Don Ross to Cat Stevens and springs from a creative and experimental seed. Combining unusual alternate tunings, flowing chordal melodies and harmonic tapping accents, Derek constantly pushes the boundaries of what his guitar can do and how he can entwine the haunting fingerstyle melodies with his emotionaly transperant lyrical soul.

Hello Derek,
Thanks for the request. I enjoyed your music. My favorite track is "Elijahs Cave". I see we have both been influenced by the great Don Ross. I hope you'll stop by my site, give me a listen, and let me know what you think of my tunes.

All the best,

Steven

Glad to be among your friends. Thanks for the invite. Great crisp sound, I'm assuming the recordings were made with the Parker. Nice song writing as well.
