Ivan Mihaljevic: guitar international interview

Matt Warnock: On Destination Unknown you play guitar, keyboards and handle the lead vocals. Would you consider yourself a guitarist first, or do you think of yourself as a multi-instrumentalist?

Ivan Mihaljevic: I’m not a very good keyboardist as I haven’t practiced in ages. [Laughs] Guitar is my strongest instrument for sure, but lately I’ve been working on my singing a lot, so we’ll see where it all takes me down the road.

Matt: You feature some great guest artists on the new album. What was it like working with Australian guitarist Brett Garsed, who’s a huge name in the fusion guitar world?

Ivan: Well, I actually only exchanged a couple of emails with Brett when we worked on the record. I would love to meet him in person someday if I get the chance. I was originally put in contact with him through John Denner, who’s a great player as well, and Brett just recorded his solo in his studio and sent me the track to use on the record. more
