   About Nick Layton



Nick's debut CD entitled “Storming the Castle” is available now!! Inspired by the great artists and virtuoso guitarists of the late 70's and 80's, including Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, George Lynch , Michael Schenker, John Sykes, Dio, Queensryche, Savatage, TNT, Dream Theater, etc; Nick became obsessed with the guitar in 1987 and never looked back. Presently, Nick is involved in many musical projects, is a steady live performer, and still makes time to teach as many students as his schedule will allow.

Yo Nick. I've also been messing with your free arppegio lessons from Tom's site. I'm planning on getting the full version as well as all your other lesson products. Just gotta digest more of Tom's lessons first. I'm also hoping I can generate some extra cash once the next round of MCMP gets going so buying these types of things isn't just a thought but an action. Keep tearin it up!
