Question
What do Steve Vai, Greg Howe, Frank Gambale and Britney Spears all have in common? scroll down keep scrolling it will be worth it almost there aaand the answer is... Alex Feather Akimov ![]() I bet you are tired of these cryptic writings by now - so I'll just say it in plain GMCish: We have a new instructor and he rocks! Alex is a world class session guitarist and has some of the biggest names ever on his list. He has already started spreading his vast experience on our forum - check out these topics: How To Keep Your Gig How To Learn Songs For Auditions How To Get Studio Gigs Learn How To Sight Read Arranging And Recording Tricks But today you get more than that, check out Alex' first lesson: Beautiful Lani - a song that will be on his third album. Also check out his profile, two beautiful compositions - and his introduction video: Alex's goal at GMC is to give you all the tools necessary to become a world class studio guitarist, as well as to give you an understanding of the business. Welcome to GMC Alex, I can already feel the over-all level of inspiration here rising! -------------------- I do not have any natural talent at all - you can beat me with hard work.
Check out my video lessons + Kris & Marcus collab KMC Metal. My latest songs: "Mittwoch", "A Loner", "Red Shot", "Brutal Bump", "Love Me" . Kris & Ben Collab: Second Chance, Shadow Of The Ninja |
