Luis
Originally from Venezuela, Luis’ first real interactions with rock music was at the age of 9, when he discovered that buried inside a box full of Latin music vinyl discs, there were two Iron Maiden discs and a Van Halen disc. Imagine a 9-year-old looking at both Eddies on front covers while listening to crazy guitar solos…mind blowing! There were some local musicians in his family too, so it was a matter of time that he would develop interest for playing an instrument, a guitar in his case.
A mostly self-taught player, he went from Playing with friends and small parties, to joining a Pink Floyd cover band with other local musicians and spent seven years playing with them until he moved to the United States. His influences span from classic rock to more modern prog rock, but now he is up to trying other styles and adding different flavors to his style and trying different sounds. He plays mostly on Fender Strats, Telecasters, and Charvel guitars.
