About Featured On Fridays
What happened to all the guitar, bass and drum solos in the songs of today??? Don't you remember going to concerts back in the day, and discussing with your friends the intricacies of the way the guitar solo was played? Or how about watching a concert DVD of Rush, and the whole crowd performs an "air drum solo" in unison with Neil Peart?
A funny thing transpired sometime during the 90's era, when the solos went by the wayside, and the Media decided that generic, predictable, pre-fab music was the way to go. And band by band, solos quietly vanished into obscurity......perhaps thought of as a musical interlude filler? This was the 'anti-technique' movement!
Well, the solos are back, baby!! And so is the growling raw power of avant-garde progressive rock/metal shred with a bluesy-fusion flair, sure to please any hardcore rock lover!!
Featured on Fridays is a salute to all the cool "tunage" & musicianship from the 60's, 70's & 80's!
Our sound is as varied as our influences, so don't expect to hear the same style with each new tune...we like to keep it fresh & unpredictable, yet still deliver a sense of familiarity to the listener.
To keep our chops up to speed, we practice daily, studying various odd-meter time changes, scales & modes, cool jazz charts.
Alot of our inspiration for writing comes from studying the greats, including Ira Sullivan, Joe Diorio, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Wes Montgomery, etc.
If you like Van Halen, Steve Vai, Greg Howe, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Rush, Zappa, Steve Morse & Joe Satriani, you will LOVE Featured On Fridays!
