Jon Hooper
Hi, My name is Jon Hooper. I write, compose, record and play instrumental metal. I love the energy that is produced sonicly when listening to it. So I love creating that vibe.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I have been playing guitar for 24 years. I have been in a few bands. I have been writing songs for about 10 years. I have recently been recording my first CD solo project to be released fall of 2004. I just love to create.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I don't have a band. So it is hard to play live. I have played live in the past. It is a big rush for me. I love it!
Your musical influences
I am greatly influenced by metal and rock. Guitar influences are Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Chris Impellitteri, Paul Gilbert, Rex Carroll and the list goes on.
What equipment do you use?
I have an extensive list of gear I use. I love a variety of sounds. If you go to my official web site you will find a list there.
