Multi-award winning visual artist R. David Price has brought his unique visions from the fine art world into the world of music. Recording under the bands name "Xbro", Price explores the sounds of his geographic roots in Texas and Arkansas found in the city that can claim both states, Texarkana. Brought up in this rich musical birthplace that lies at the crossroads of the two states mentioned as well as Oklahoma and Louisiana which exposed Price to his regional contemporaries, Scott Joplin, Conlon Nancarrow, Leadbelly, T-Bone Walker, Roy Orbison, Hoyt Axton, Don Henley, Whitehorse and more. Having spent time at Jerimiah Records with Mae Boren Axton , Queen Mother of Nashville, who graciously helped with guidance in his budding visual arts career and pointed out that Price's illustrations of John Lennon were, "the best original works she had ever seen." Axton also prodded Price in the direction of writing down all of the song ideas he had fermenting. Now through the work of Xbro, these audible visions finally reach the music world in the form of Rock and Roll with lots of outside fusions of Blues, Country, Funk, Jazz, Classical, Ambient, Punk, Swing and R&B thrown into the mix to form the experience that is Xbro. Now working on his fourth album, "Experimetal" Price takes his band in a new direction exploring the extremes of the guitar creating audible paintings through his visual approach to sound in recording. Collaborating with other musicians in upcoming projects
