I've been trying to think of an idea for a solo album for years now, and I think I've finally settled on something that I like. I was originally going to write an instrumental guitar album, and have some of my favorite guitarists do guest solos on each track. Not unheard of, right? I stuck with that idea for a while, wrote some riffs/songs, and wasn't really happy with how things were turning out. The whole instrumental guitar thing is a bit out of my comfort zone for some reason.


I then started thinking about how cool it would be to actually write entire songs with these guitarists, and experience what it would be like being in a band with them for a bit. I've started writing songs with a few people, and everything is turning out great so far! I like that every song will be unique because each guest musician will have a huge impact on the writing. I have some pretty killer guitarists lined up to write with, and I think everyone will be stoked when I announce more closer to a release
