Musicians on Acoustic Environment (Clockwise from top left): Mark Hillis, Jeff Hurt, Tom Griesgraber, Tiffany Modell. | | Influences | Half of my influences probably remain only in my subconscience and linger there to come out in my music, but I'll attemp to list those that I think have influenced me the most. I'm a strong believer that no matter how cool a riff you think you came up with, most likely there was something that lead you down the path- either a blatant influence, or a distant memory locked away that comes out through ones music unprovoked, in a twisted derivation that can be claimed as one's own.
Some of my influences are very appearant when one listens to my music, while others are more buried in the mix :-).......
