16-05-2005: Wayde's is finishing a progressive rock instrumental CD, due for release this summer.

Background:
Wayde is a sizzling shredder from Seattle, WA. He just got straight into technical guitar playing as he says:

So I did what must guitarist did when starting out… I practiced like crazy learning as much as I can, buying instructional videos and books and CD’s to explore the guitar more."

His playing and progress as a musician lead him to listen to Jazz, fusion and classical music.
In 1993 he moved to California and wrote his first instrumental CD entitled 32nd note festival of shred. He was highlighted by Mike Varney of Shrapnel Records and was added to his Hometown Heroes column in Guitar World. He hoped to get a deal with Varney but all his equipement was stolen.

He moved back to Seattle and released his album on Fossil records. He then wrote an instructional CD ROM and released it on Chops from Hell. He then another CD in 2002 called Welcome to the 21st century
