Sound Priest Music would like to thank: First and foremost #1 GOD! and then my beautiful wife for standing by me, I would also like to thank Josh E., the most awesome drummer, I have ever witnessed in my life. I'm proud Josh that a drummer with your excellence, super speed, precision strikes, and talent believed in my band Sound Priest enough to Jam live with me. You are a great friend buddy, and will never be forgotten, and Sound Priest will never be the same without you. I'd also like to thank Kramer American Guitars for manufacturing three of the most awesome Heavy Metal/Rock Guitars in the world, my Kramer Sustainer, Kramer Custom Pacer II, and my Kramer Pro-Axe. I would have given up on Guitar playing long ago if it hadn't been for my Kramers! I'd like to thank all the Fans of Sound Priest Music who return to this site on a daily basis just to listen to the tunes, and the people out there who have believed in us. The Kramer Guitar Forum-Worldwide Kramer Guitar Community online, CDBaby.com for promoting the upcoming album, and all the internet Radio stations that are now streaming Sound Priest Music over the web, special thanks to The NOAA Central Library, and the National Severe Storms Laboratory for allowing use of the above storm photograph for the website!
