Thanks Ron for your hospitality!
Jim Wright performing on his Warr Guitar at the "Brown Note Amplifier" booth in Hall B, #3193 at NAMM.
Jim's touch-style performances have attracted many crowds throughout the day.
Playing Favorites, the new CD from the LA-based group Fuzzy Logic Boptet, is now available on the progressive music distribution website Abstract Logix.
Warr guitarist Jim Wright plays his Phalanx-12 on most of the CD, some of which was recorded live, and all of it with little or no effects, showcasing the incredibly full sound of this instrument, and the all 4ths tap-guitar tuning used.
Polly Klemmer's progressive piece "Gate Array" (which can be heard at the link below) is the only song on
which overdrive was used on the PH-12 guitar side, and demonstrates the
anti-crosstalk features of this model very well.
On the song Midnight (written by saxophonist Robin Rader, and which can be previewed at the link below), Jim uses a Warr Artisan semi-hollow-body 12-string with all nylon strings, perhaps one of the first recordings of it's kind.
The CD is also available at CD Baby, and Amazon.

Behold..The Arctopus / Byla & Jarboe
Skullgrid / Viscera
Few musicians create their own vocabularies; fewer create their own worlds. While Colin Marston and Kevin Hufnagel have made diverse, quality music on their own, it's fortunate they found each other, as few others speak their musical language. Together, they fuse prog rock, jazz fusion, modern classical, technical metal, black metal, and ambient music into an idiosyncratic whole, parceled out to various ensembles. Their instrumental rock trio Dysrhythmia inhabits the middle of this universe. Behold...The Arctopus and Byla are extensions outwards in opposite directions, ultimately meeting full circle.
Behold...The Arctopus sound like more than the instrumental trio they are. This is due to Marston's Warr guitar, a strange instrument......
