ABOUT

My name is Anthony. I've been playing guitar for a total of 7 years. Music is the love of my life. It's my way of expression. My goal is to write music through this instrument and pave a new genre that people can enjoy.

I am very open minded so i'll always try something new and I have the technical skill to sweep, solo, etc. But I discipline myself to play with restraint and simplicity.

Influences

John Frusciante - Both in Red Hot Chilli Peppers and solo work

Beatles - more of the harmonies with Paul's musicianship with Harrison's restraint and Lennon's leads.

My Chemical Romance - developed a good distorted style but learned good use of octave chords to incorporate in a new style

Guns N Roses - Slash is what really got me into playing guitar. The rock in my exists from slash, as much as i'd like to say i have a bit of his style in my playing i do not, though He started it all.

Allen stone - Just recently added to the list. But he's so amazing, and is probably the direction im going for as far as music. but i dont walk in with a one track mind. Im open minded and can flex
Jimi Hendrix - Most of the people i've been influenced by have been influenced by Jimi. So he's probably more in my style than anyone.
Theres a lot more from different genres but that should be discovered as we go.
