This week, we interview Damian Appiotti.
Damian Appiotti is a multi faceted musician and educator who has been playing the guitar for about as long as he can remember. He grew up with parents who both have musical backgrounds, and has had a life surrounded by music, film, and art at large. The style that Damian often works in is referred to as Prog, which some have gone on to describe by saying it’s not so much a genre as is just people making music on the guitar and making unique and interesting compositions. His experiences to date have culminated in his first EP, Automoton. And since its release, he has been hard at work on his next project which is expected to release in the coming months.
Over the next 2 months (as of the release of this episode), Damian be will giving free live online soloing masterclasses via zoom. They’ll be free to attend but the dates are tbd. Follow him on social media to stay up to date about this opportunity and when it is officially starting up.
In addition, he recently started a Facebook group for people stuck in the intermediate stages of guitar playing. This group is free to join for anyone and he is posting multiple times a week with advice and exercises that should help push past plateaus in the learning process.
To stay up to date with all of these opportunities and more, make sure to give Damian a follow on Instagram @Damian_appoitti, as well as Facebook, and your favorite streaming platform.
