Acapriccio
The band is myself. I usually try to write songs with two guitars, then I add in the drums or whatever else. I sometimes have people sit in on my recordings to do vocal tracks, piano, bass or another guitar. The band is not just me though, to me it is everything that Ive done with others, and everything others have done with me. All of my songs are basically straight forward, they just have many parts and changes in them. I enjoy picking a lot, especially over a rythym guitar. My writting process actually ties in with the recording process. I usually write one guitr first and record it. Then after I think Im done I come up with another guitar and thats how most of my songs are written. I cant record at home so I use friends home studios, this is why I have to come up with 2nd guitar on the fly.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Started playing the drums about five years ago, but I had one year with no drums and no practice. I started playing guitar three years ago, and started recording shortly after that. Thats what I have been doing ever since.

Not at the moment. At a bar. Yes. No
