Artist description
Influenced by the likes of Metallica, Carcass, Megadeth, Satriani, Vai, Van Halen, Black Sabbath, Steve Barboza is doing all his own guitars, basses, and drums, as well as vocals now and then. He is primarily an instrumental guitar rock style player, and thinks it is sad that more people do not enjoy instrumental music. Today's music scene is all about the Backstreet Boys and that kind of crap. Too many people listening to the words, and not enough enjoying the music. Steve hopes to be the Bill & Ted of the real world, by bringing us all together through music. |
