Allan Holdsworth
Born:
Allan Holdsworth is widely regarded by fans and contemporary musicians as one of the 20 th century's most prominent guitarists. He is one of a handful of musicians who has consistently proven himself as an innovator in between and within the worlds of rock and jazz music. Many of music's best-known instrumental masters cite Holdsworth as that rare and shining voice—a legendary player who continues to push the outer limits of instrumental technique and the electric guitar's range of tonal and textural possibilities. Particularly during the 90s, Holdsworth has enjoyed the recognition so many musicians strongly feel he deserves, given that he has developed his career outside the big label mainstream and has consistently produced his own recordings with complete creative control since the mid-80s

Grit. Discipline. Guts: A 25-Year Blueprint for the Modern Music Career
by Lindsey Boullt
I didn't start playing guitar until I was 21. No prodigy pipeline, no major-label safety net. Just a long runway of trial, failure, and forced problem-solving. Over 25 years in San Francisco, I built a career combining performance, composition, education, and production--not as separate identities, but as a single ecosystem. The model is brutally ...
