Smokstik 2 now available for download!

Smokstik 2- featuring John "Kingvegas" Kiehne on Warr Guitar and vocals- is now available for download at CDBaby.com and Amazon.com and will soon be available on iTunes and on many other download sites.

Smokstik 2 was recorded in 2002 with drummer Joe Meyer and combines elements of rock, funk, jazz jazz and hip hop. It's progressive sound would appeal to fans of Primus, Praxis, the Beastie Boys and so forth.

Kingvegas is currently working on new material for another Smokstik release as well as his instrumental group the Vegas Jazz Oddity and backing music for the Jamcorps^tm workout system.

Also check out the first Smokstik EP "Bugs" available at all your favorite music sites!

Soundscape released into the wild

The first soundscape I played live on Warr Guitar was recorded at a recent gig while opening for the Eclipse Trio. Annoyingly I deleted the file, but the soundcheck version survived and is now available for free as "Wheatley Manor Soundscape" at the Spingere Bandcamp page:

It's all played live on eight string TG Warr Guitar. Hope you like it.

E-tap 2010: Celebrating 20 Years.

Congratulations to Daniel Schell for 20 years of the most comprehensive courses available for touch guitar at E-tap in Belgium. This year, I will be teaching along with Kuno Wagner, Wolfgang Daiss, and Daniel. I can't say enough good things about this seminar, and It's always a joy to be involved.

For more info: www.clicmusic.be

I will also be available to give private lessons, and do set up and intonation on any make of tap-guitar for a reasonable fee while I am there. Just make sure to have a fresh set of strings available, and perhaps contact me via my MS page to let me know.

Warr At the Manor House

I'm playing a soundscape on my 8 string TGSS next Friday (15th May) before a concert by The Eclipse Trio. This is going to be a fully improvised piece and is meant to blend into the opening number by the trio - but anything could happen!

The concert is at the beautiful Wheatley Manor House near Oxford (in the UK). If you want to come, admission is free but there will be a chance to make a donation to charity (and you get a free glass of wine and a cd). If you want to come please email me at spingere@btinternet.com
