ABOUT BRYCE LAYMAN
My guitar experience started during the music renaissance of 1967 (rock–n-roll, now called classic rock). As a life-long learner, my playing is constantly evolving having been influenced by many genres and except for those few first lessons I am self-taught. My experience includes performing in numerous bands, coffee houses, benefit concerts and teaching guitar since 2004. I have classical training in chorus and play a wide variety of musical styles including classic rock, blues, jazz, new age and classical. I released a CD in 2004 and am currently recording another. My recording studio experience began in the early 1970’s recording with live bands and working with sound reinforcement. I started working with digital audio in 1993 and built my digital project studio in 2003.
