Making new music with
one of my teenage heroes.
The pandemic led me to pick up my guitar and start writing songs again for the first time in 20 years. Next thing I knew, I was collaborating on new music with legendary guitarist Marty Willson-Piper, (The Church, Noctorum, The Saints), a guy I’d idolized as a teenager just learning guitar.
Thus, Blueburst was born. Our debut album called Significance dropped in October to rave reviews.
