Micah Atwell mixes nostalgic, brooding, ambient soundscapes with edgy, organic rock influence to define a new dimension of electronic guitar. His unique blend of emotive minimalist complexity is constantly making new impressions with listeners from all backgrounds and preferences.
Raised between bustling southern California and rural, spacious Kansas, Micah developed a dichotomous affinity for time and rhythm. At age 16, he began teaching himself guitar and spent his formative years writing blues-based hard rock instrumentals. Over time, he shifted his evolving sound and style towards the more experimental electronic and ambient genres. This has allowed him to tap into a much greater list of influences, technical experience, and creative freedom.
Micah produced and self-released his 2008 debut album, Temple of Unmanifest Dreams, an emotionally charged and meditative ambient/electronic guitar odyssey geared for audiences of such popular radio programs as the nationally syndicated Hearts of Space and similar regional broadcasts. This haunting, meditative compilation is an astounding testament to what a guitar can convey, and it continues to receive sweeping reviews at every turn.
Micah Atwell has received numerous positive critiques from legendary guitarist George Lynch and in 2008 secured a Top 40 ranking in the industry-sponsored international Guitar Idol competition. He has also scored music for video and animation and is active with artists in the US and UK, co-writing and co-producing some very eclectic compositions.
Micah uses Warmoth and Dean guitars, Line6 processors, and Yamaha keyboards.

"I've always loved listening to Micah's compositions because they're always so musically interesting. He has a lot of content and his soloing is never overkill. ... He shows a lot of room for growth and potential and has direction in his approach." -- George Lynch (Dokken/Lynch Mob), George Lynch Guitar Dojo

Seems I am the first to listen to Partake - the first to partake of a new work, even[!]
It's beautiful - has some of the slow, gradual development I am striving towards in some of the things I am composing just now - in fact, seems there's something in the ether just now, inspiring a few of us in this direction - whatever, it's good!

Your music is especially poignant and very soothing to me right now......i will be having another listen to my favourite track, 'Futility', later. Manyana around 3:30 UK time, Tons love tob xxxxxx
Since some people in poor countries cannot read without prescription or reading glasses, for every song of ours you download, you will be supplying a pair of glasses to someone that needs them and will appreciate the gift of sight. Please consider downloading from here, two of our songs, and with your help, we can provide more people with the gift of sight. Thank you.
