I grew up listening to 80s rock and metal, from Van Halen and Scorpions to Iron Maiden and Metalllica (when they were cool). In 1993 I fell into writing lead guitar (and lots of it) over my riff-heavy songs, so I became an instrumental guitarist, though I never listened to them much.
I picked up endorsements with Peavey, Alvarez Guitars, and Morley Pedals since putting out my first album, THE FIREBARD, and am gigging and recording the next album now.
I love to hear from people so drop me a line or join my friend list and post a comment!
RANDY ELLEFSON: Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid
Another round of over the top, high energy riffs and melodies!
RANDY ELLEFSON: The Firebard
Crunching riffs and melodic lead guitar like they used to do, with big solos and enough energy to power your day, this is hard rock and metal like you probably haven't heard in a long time.
