JAM SAN ANTONIO 2024

ΣΠΥΡΟΣ ΣΟΥΚΗΣ - Η Μάγισσα Της Αραπιάς

Jamming on a C# minor blues progression last night after a long day. Playing a hollow body strat with a warmoth rosewood neck (it’s a large size-like a baseball bat) custom made by my friend @ruggibarr -a long time ago, early in his guitar tinkering days, he got this neck and I always lusted after it! Eventually, he offered this guitar to me in a trade, and no way could I turn it down. Playing with my fingers on electric of course makes me thinking of my no.1 childhood guitar hero @markknopfler (dire straits first self titled is a masterpiece in my opinion), but I also get a lot of inspiration from @robbenfordmusic (tiger walk is a great album). But it’s all the blues, so of course BB King is at the top (Live from San Quentin in my favorite BB album). Not my tightest playing, but maybe it’ll turn folks into some music! Check those albums out! #music #blues #minorblues #fingerstyleguitar #electricfingerstyle #guitarnerds #guitarnerds #guitarneck #warmoth #warmothguitars #stratocaster #partscaster #guitarstories #friendship #inspiration #roots #markknopfler #robbenford #bbking #practice #guitarpractice #baltimore #thebmorecreatives #classicalbums #direstraits #tigerwalk #livefromsanquentin #checkitout (at Baltimore, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBnkgHbH8YD/?igshid=1ggbk8opcll38

My new song is out! Thought the best way to start this blog would be to introduce my first song that’s released on spotify!  I personally didn’t have a goal to be set with this song. I just wanted to express myself. There are bumps, the tone isn’t what I was going for. But I still feel comfortabe enough to post it. I loved the feeling of being able to just let loose and have the guitar do the talking for me. I’m not the most innovative or the most amazing guitarist on the planet, but I strive to get better each and every time I pick up the guitar.  Thanks for tuning in, Gabe
