Guitar-Driven Instrumental Fusion, "Complex. Colorful Harmonies". Comparable to Jeff Beck / Eric Johnson.Band/artist history
Elliot Holden is a dude just trying to make it. I do everything myself (website, promotions, recording and other administrative bull%$#@) becuase no else has believed in me enough to invest their time or money. But I've learned so much over the last couple of years. 1st - there are people out there that REALLY do enjoy my music, enough to actually pay for it. 2nd - I have the total creative freedom to do whatever the &%#@! I want and I wouldn't have it any other way.Have you performed in front of an audience?Always playing live somewhere. Highlights have included opening shows for Chris Duarte, Sonny Landreth, Col. Bruce Hampton and the Code Talkers, Derek Trucks Band, and The Dirty Dozen Brass Band.
Your musical influences
Hendrix, Eric Johnson, Jeff Beck, Leo Kotke, Pierre Bensusan, Hey I like A LOT of music period - Hip Hop , Jazz Rock. Hieroglyphics rule.What equipment do you use?
Fender Strat with vintage noiseless pickups in the neck and middle position and Seymour Duncan Cool Rails in the bridge. Amps - 2 fender Deluxe reissue running in stereo through a Visaul Sound H20 Chorus/ Delay pedal. For dirty I run HAO pedals, a Rust Driver and a Sole Pressure.Anything else?

In a word..................WOW!!!! Fantasticly fantastic job on this man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great tones,very Eric Johnson-ish! Wonderfull playing!
Reporting from ATL - Apache Cafe 4/12/09. Love studio version, but sorry you only get 4 because people should really hear you live & direct (then we can talk about that extra star). Amazing!
You have pretty decent skills. I love it.
