A
transplanted Texan living in L.A., Rick Brannon refers to himself
as a Calitexan. With both feet firmly planted in the currently hot
country metal blues fusion guitar style, Brannons big influences
include blues blasters like Johnny Winter and Freddie King, and he
breaks new ground on his 2007 CD Angels Highway. Backed up
by drummer Dean Lopes and bassist Phillip Bynoeas
well as esteemed mixer Fabrezio GrossiBrannon performs
all the guitars and vocals with drive and style. With a mix of heavy
guitar riffage, rock fusion instrumentals and vocal cuts, Angels
Highway spotlights Brannons fretboard expertise on a number
of guitars including Charvel, Fender Strat and Ibanez. Whether taking
the lead vocal mic or echoing the inspiring pyrotechnics of guitar
icons like Hendrix, Gibbons and Winter, Brannon has it all covered
on Angels Highway. www.guitarfreak.com
