The magnetism of "Project STEIGER" is an atmosphere of pulsating instrumental guitar
music, that immerses the soul and thrashes the psyche. The spirit of true instrumental guitar taken to a level which transcends space and time…
Why this name?
Based on my last name. STEIGER.
Do you play live?
Yes..we perform around the Southern California area. The last year has been crazy opening for bands such as Geroge Lynch (Lynch Mob), Pat Travers, Dick Dale. Opening for Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society at the Whisky Halloween night was killer show.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Guitar music to the masses...
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Depending on each situation, and deal structure. Right now I can keep the music pure...
