Steve Vai
If you missed the Steve Vai tour this spring 2005
all I have to say is you definitely missed out. Please do
yourself a favor and go to Steve's web site and order a copy of his
new release. It will absolutely blow your mind. I was
very fortunate to be able to meet Steve at the Winston-Salem show
and then again at the Cincinnati show and I must say he is one of
the most down to earth awesome individuals that I have ever
met. A true lover of his fans!!! Don't ever miss this
guy in concert you won't regret it!!!
Being a guitar player myself I have always looked at
Dave Weiner in amazement that at 23 years old he was able to join
Steve Vai's band and tour the world. He has been with Steve
every since but also has had the time to work up a band of his
own. I went to listen to sound bites on his web site and must
say that it is an extreme breath of fresh art form. Visit his
website and be sure to order a copy of his new
project.
It was a priviledge to have recently experianced a
live performance of Eric Sardinas who opened the show for Steve Vai
and the Breed. Eric is a world renown Delta Blues player who
has done over 6000 shows worldwide. Yes you read that right
6000 shows. Be sure to visit Eric's web site and snatch up on
some of his work. Thanks again Eric it was great to have met
you!
Martika and Michael Mozart will absolutely blow your
mind with their fresh pop sound!!! Check out their website
and definitely add their CD's to your collection. Music will
definitely grow on you the more you listen to it. THUMBS WAY
UP!!!! Look for them to come to this area soon for a concert
and don't miss it!!!
Multi-talented schooled musician who I am sure we
will all see hitting the big time in his own season. A man
whom I consider a very good friend. Watch this guys talent
blossom as both a drummer and a bluegrass artist on the
dobro. Check out his web site!!!
A true legend in this part of the country!!!!
Check out Mike Morningstar and Rick Roberts whenever you can you
won't regret it at all!!! Mike has been gigging all across
West Virginia and other parts of the country for over 30
years. A true polished professional!!! Stop by the shop
to pick up their latest CD. And don't forget to check out
Mike's web site to stay caught up with his busy
schedule.
It has been a blessing to have Ed as a good friend. He is a true guitar virtuoso with his talent. His CD is available through the store so be sure to pick one up or email and I will be glad to get his wonderful project to you!!!
If you are a true bluegrass lover then please be
sure to check out Rhonda Vincent and the Rage. Without a
doubt some of the finest performers in the country today.
Rhonda, thanks for the great show at the Summersville Bluegrass
Festival!
It was a recent pleasure for us at Soundwaves Music

professional, musician. Be sure to check out his web site
asap. It was great meeting you Eric and hope to see you again

We here at Soundwaves Music recently had a visit
from an up and coming star from Nashville, Jay Teter. Jay was
passing through town to play at the Braxton County Fair and needed
to pick up a couple of things on his way. It was great
meeting you Jay and we at Soundwaves Music wish you many good
fortunes on your musical journey.
