Chris Brooks: DoFret interview

Q: What is the scene like in Australia for instrumental guitar music?
A: You know, a week ago I would have said “bleak”, but I did a concert-style clinic a few nights ago that was packed. I practically had to climb over people to get to the bathroom in the breaks, haha! I think the audience for this sort of stuff could well be a sleeping giant, just waiting for the right exposure, because many of the people the other night had not heard my stuff in detail, or anything like it, but the response was astounding. I’m definitely going to spend less time worrying about how to get the 1% of the population who likes this stuff into a room, and more time on how to expose the other 99% to it.
