Under The Radar, released in May 2000 is a combination of potent, driving guitar rock interspersed with evocative new age acoustic stylings, and further cements his place alongside such instrumental luminaries as Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Adrian Legg, and Jeff Beck.
"My goal on the new album is to combine sonic textures and memorable melodies to create an emotional impact on the listener.
I want to reach an audience that might not normally choose to listen to instrumental music. I also wanted to create songs that aren't based solely around technique as with many instrumental records."
Main guitar influences: Page, DeLeo, Gilmour, Townshend, Rhoads, Van Halen, Cantrell, Lifeson, Legg, Buckingham
Main electric guitar: 1990 fender strat plus with lace sensors
