I started producing a weekly program for DJ Willy Wow's Sirius/XM radio show a few years back, and it morphed into a full on musical collaboration that resulted in a nomination for the 66th Annual GRAMMY Awards!
I, along with several other talented producers, musicians, and DJ Willy Wow himself, are beyond thrilled for this amazing honor.
I am now an official vintageguitarsus.com artist! The great folks at Vintage/RBI Music customized one of their stock guitars to my specs, and it freakin' rocks! The quality of guitar in this price point is absolutely insane. Special thanks to Rick Taylor at Vintage/RBI Music and the mighty Philip Shouse (Ace Frehely/Accept) for hooking me up! www.vintageguitarsus.com
