1. pat thomi
Pat has a talent for creating music that inspires the listener to see without looking, music that is so visually provocative, it can tell a story that transcends language, communicating through its sheer emotional impact and reinforcement of the visual.
Innovative , artistic, visionary, multidimensional; words that describe the music of Pat Thomi. Unlike many of his Guitar contemporaries, it is Pat Thomi's visually provocative, and highly emotive style of music that make him one of the most unique and sought after musicians in the realm of instrumental and orchestral music.
While Pat might say that Guitar is his "true voice", in truth, he is the Quintessential Artist, Composer and Producer, incorporating his undeniable mastery of these elements, for the sheer emotional impact and execution of his music. As he has said, "My music is always very visual, I try to weave an emotional thread through each piece that will take you places, maybe someplace unexpected" ...

Tim Sparks' Guitar Bazaar Home Page.
Tim Sparks' long journey to the 1993 National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship, and beyond, began modestly in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, when he started picking out tunes by ear on an old Stella flat top. He was given his first guitar when a bout of encephalitis kept him out of school for a year, and the music he heard around him was traditional country blues, and the gospel his grandmother played on piano in a small church in the Blue Ridge mountains, so that's what he taught himself to play.
A musically-astute uncle heard him one day, and amazed that he had come so far on his own, nominated him for a scholarship at the prestigious North Carolina School of the Arts. There he studied the classics with Segovia protegee Jesus Silva, while continuing to play all kinds of music, increasingly turning to classic jazz for inspiration. He adapted compositions by Jelly Roll Morton, Scott Joplin, and Fats Waller to the guitar, frequently reducing piano arrangements to their spare essence. Early influences were Doc Watson, Arthur Smith and, most importantly, Duck Baker, who opened up an horizon of possibilities for fingerstyle guitar ...

Tony Hallinan session guitarist, composer and recording studio owner.
Tony Hallinan’s melodic, instrumental rock guitar compositions immediately grab the listeners attention. Tony is a gifted composer with an ear for a catchy melody, perfectly complimenting the fire in his solos and improvised material. Elements of Tony’s style are reminiscent of Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Gary Moore, Brian May, Eddie Van Halen, Paul Gilbert and Jeff Beck. Tony began playing at the age of six and by the age of fourteen had achieved grade eight in classical guitar by which time he had begun to perform professionally as a session guitarist ...
