Guitar Noise

I want to introduce you to a red hot guitarist that I met a few months ago. His name is Will Landrum. He has a couple of guitar instrumental CDs out in the vein of Vai and Satriani. “Living Digits” is his latest release and I have to tell you it totally rocks! He has distribution with iTunes and Amazon.

Not only does Will have the virtuoso guitar leads, he also has something that a lot of guitarists don’t… composition skills. Well, I discussed with him at length about his playing techniques and his approaches to creativity.

After about an hour of being totally impressed with how this guy creates such compelling guitar music, I also discovered what a great teacher he was.

So today, I want to share a video with you where Will teaches how one of the most successful rock bands in the world, uses different scale modes for creating compelling and record-selling rock music. It’s a 12 minute video where he explains how Rush uses modes in their songwriting. 

Will’s insight to using modes creatively is also at the core of his success as an instrumental guitar recording artist. Don’t miss this one.

Here’s the guitar lesson video link.
