Marty previously from the band Dog House from Petawawa, Ontario. is our Lead Guitar player and also sings many of the lead vocals in our band.
Here are a few words from our man with the kickin guitar licks....
I started playing guitar when I was about 8 years old....all of my 4
older brothers were playing in bands and guitars were hanging around
everywhere. I picked it up pretty quick and started playing literally
(till my fingers bled) and kept at it and all I had was one guitar song
book. After learning basic chords, then progressed to bar
chords.....wow, that was a whole new adventure. I still remember the
first time I heard Eruption..... This is a guitar? How did he pull this
off? How did he do this, how did he do that? Man talk about setting
the bar high......sounds like a challenge to me. That's what really
launched my interest and I have kept at it ever since.
Now having older brothers playing in bands professionally, I was
exposed to a lot of the classic rock. During the 70's and 80's I always
had a guitar in my hand. Every chance I got, I was down in the basement
picking up new songs of all different types. My first performance was
(shall I say), interesting.... But playing for over 300 people was quite
the rush when your 14.
After my band called "Fortress" in high school which did quite well,
was my first time doing some vocals. Once I graduated, my adventure
continued down south in Va.Beach. Now this was the life....going to
college, playing in a rock band.
Marty,
Mystic Kick
Although it would be nice to have Marty back in the band, our Canadian forces need him more for the moment, but who knows what the future holds. Marty is a great friend and Im sure we will see him around sometime.
