Hi there my name's Gary Ormond and I'm a solo guitarist and teacher. I'll get talking about my style, influences, fave guitarists, and perhaps even my equipment later. Hope you enjoy what you hear.
Why this name?
hehe, simple! It's my name. ;)
Do you play live?
Not as much as I used to. I do enjoy playing for the public but also love to pass on my knowledge to others.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think the internet keeps the music biz honest!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yeah, guess so, if one came along.
Band History:
My band history is really just my history. The short version? 20 years experience as a guitarist, qualifications for classical guitar and singing, and almost 15 years as a rocker!
Your influences?
my style? Electrically, It is a mixture of technoflash, neo-classical, apalucian/melodic rock, and metal. I am greatly influenced by the true greats of the guitar; Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, George Lynch, Vinnie Moore and others. These guys "rawk" and if I ever get half as good as any of 'em, i'll die a happy man!
Favorite spot?
Don't really have a fave city.
