Strange Beautiful Music

A diverse collection of instrumental narratives ranging from Middle Eastern-inspired melodies to heavy seven-string riffs. Polished, melodic, and deeply expressive.

It's the guitar album for people who usually find guitar albums too busy - melodic, warm, and surprisingly soulful.

A sophisticated blend of triumphant rock energy and exotic, contemplative wanderlust.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The soaring, Grammy-nominated melody of Starry Night that feels like a human voice singing a lullaby.

The unexpected, heavy chugging of Seven String that shifts the album into a darker, modern metal gear.

The faithful but electrified cover of Sleep Walk that transforms the 50s classic into a modern guitar showcase.
