An Interview With Australian Guitarist GLENN PROUDFOOT


Background:
Glenn Proudfoot says:
Glenn Proudfoot, First started playing guitar at the age of 11, self taught and playing only by ear. I was obsessed with the guitar from the age of 4 and when I finally got my first guitar which my elder brother bought for me, ( thanks bro!! ) I couldn't put it down. My influences even from an early age where very Blues Rock orientated, bands like, Led Zepplin, AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, Cream and as with most young Australian guitar players Tommy Emmanuel was a massive influence! Later I would find such guitarists as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Johnson, these two guitar players blew my mind ( and still do! ) like no other. I studied under the tuition of David Herzog for around 2 years and to this day I am still mentored by him. As far as my guitar playing goes these where the most important 2 years of my life. I was practicing between 10-12 hours everyday and would spend a couple of hours a week with David fine tuning techniques and ideas. As a musician my favorite thing is to play live and I have been doing so since I was 14, which I am very thankful for. I am based in Europe now and Im the Lead Guitarist for a Czech Progressive Rock Band called Prazsky Vyber 2 ( Prague Selection 2 ). Hope you enjoy myspace! Thanks, Glenn.


Influences include Angus Young, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, David Herzog, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai.
