Damien Aribert - The Being Between
Oct. 15th, 2008 07:35 amThis tune, performed here by Damien Aribert, was written by Badi Assad and Jeff Young (yes, the Jeff Young who has played guitar in Badi's band is the exact same Jeff Young who played on Megadeth's So Far, So Good...So What!
=)
As far as unique approaches to the classical - or any, really - guitar go, Damien is uniquer. Maybe uniquest.
It's not just the orientation of the guitar itself. Lap steel guys do that, Jeff Healey does that. It's the whole drumstick thing.
He essentially has turned his guitar into a... I don't know... harp? two harps? hammered dulcimer that isn't hammered?
Yeah, it's like that.
Although they don't show much of the venue in the video, looks like a nice gothicky cathedral or castle...
