Description
Paul Gilbert: guitar player:
Born in Carbondale, Illinois, into a Polish[citation needed] middle class family, Paul started playing guitar at the age of 5, but soon gave up, becoming frustrated with just learning simple nursery rhymes. Around age 11, he took up the guitar again, but with a skewed memory of the technique; he played only with upstrokes, used only the low 'E' string and only used his middle finger on the fretboard. Frustrated after trying to play the intro to 'Barracuda' by Heart, he took lessons and his teacher explained the error of his ways. His technique corrected, Gilbert continued practicing and by the age of 14 he developed a local band in Greensburg, PA named Missing Lynx. They played together for approximately two years and wrote their own material. After Missing Lynx he then went on to join another local band called Tau Zero, but left shortly after, and headed for California. He was spotlighted in Guitar Player Magazine alongside fellow up-and-comer Yngwie Malmsteen ...

The buzz on Jennifer Batten began rising from the guitar underground in the late '80's. The guitar magazines promptly picked up on Jennifer, chronicling her savvy musicianship and highly original approach to the electric guitar in print. On Guitar for the Practicing Musician's premier compilation record, G.P.M.'s editor wrote, "It was Jennifer's version of John Coltrane's "Giant Steps" that was considered by her peers the 'scariest'and most requested cut on the disc."
At one point Batten was in 6 different bands at once playing everything from straight ahead rock, to metal, to fusion, to funk. Her video credits have included Natalie Cole's "Wild Women Do", Michael Jackson's "Moonwalker", Sara Hickman's "Take It Like A Man", and a feature interview in Hot Guitarist's video magazines premier issue ...

3. 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" ...
