SOULFLY/ex-ILL NINO guitarist Marc Rizzo will be embarking on a short solo tour in early April ahead of SOULFLY's upcoming West Coast dates with INCITE, MANNTIS and A PERFECT MURDER.
Rizzo is one of the new breed of young guitarists in contemporary bands and has built a substantial following through his years of touring and recording with ILL NINO and SOULFLY. Recently, Rizzo has stepped out with solo projects that reveal a phenomenal command of the guitar. "Colossal Myopia" unveils Rizzo to be a master musician with deep musical roots in metal, classical and flamenco guitar.
"Colossal Myopia" is a mixture of all the music that Rizzo listens to. It's a combination of "metal nuevo flamenco" and jazz. "I don't really listen to one type of music and I think my record showcases that," explains Rizzo. "It's an all-instrumental CD for music lovers that want to enjoy pure music without all the politics and negative lyrical content."
