ABOUT

I am a full-time musician/guitarist. My background is rock guitar, but I'll play anything. I'm always interested in meeting high-level and motivated artists if not for anything other than networking purposes.

Please don't hesitate to contact me. Whether you need a guitarist to back you up, a last minute sub, or someone to join your band. I'm always looking for other musicians, solo artists, projects, gigs and opportunities. You can find me on social media, BrianRoberts30 and tyrannystudios

Influences

Everything that I listened to growing up, and everything that I've studied, which is a lot of stuff I'd like to think.

I'm from Kauai, and in my pre-teens, [embarrassingly] I played (and subsequently listened to) a lot of Super Nintendo.
In my early teens, I listened to and played pop punk (Blink-182, Sum 41, etc.).
In my later teens, I listened to and played thrash metal and power metal (Metallica, Iron Maiden, etc.)
In my early 20's I moved to Seattle. I listened to modern versions of the aforementioned thrash metal and power metal (Nightwish, Children of Bodom, etc.)

By my mid 20's, I went full time pro and did very little recreational study/listening. I found myself listening mostly to what I was working on for performances 99% of the time. This included (and was not limited to) Hawaiian Luau music, Reggae, Hawaiian Reggae (Jawaiian), Pop, anything Top 40's, Country, Jazz, Big Band, etc.

Nowadays I like to listen to and play any genre as long as it's "good."
