JTC  Solo Contest 2015 - Judd Niemann

I studied Jazz for quite a while, but I also love Prog Rock and Metal ... 




Having spent some time away I have returned and hopefully this year will contain some inspiration and new compositions to titillate the ears

Mark McDonald is not your average lead guitarist - influenced by Jeff Beck, Robben Ford, Frank Zappa, Richie Kotzen, Joe Satriani, there is a wealth of flavour to be found in Mark's playing.

Some of Mark's band influences include Rush, The Who, The Doors, Thin Lizzy, Chili Peppers.

Hear what others have to say about Mark: I have to thank my amigo Robert for that quote,i wouldn't have thought of it!  I've been writing my own material for a long time,as soon as started playing guitar i started to write songs. I've never stopped working on original music,i constantly keep trying to develop & progress,as best i can. I taught music for 12 years in a college & met lots of really creative characters along the way! I write however i feel,based on what's going on at that moment in time & where my musical vibe takes me. I really dig dudes like Jeff Beck,Robben Ford,Joe Satriani,Billy Gibbons,Jimmy Page,Stevie Ray Vaughan & Frank Zappa-there are so many people i could mention,but i'd literally be here all day ye'all! I really dig the concept of this soundcloud community & i hope that many of us find ourselves able to engage in creative ventures,that are enabled by this fab'n'groovy soundcloud community! To all of ye'all who listened to my songs,posted comments & sent messages-many thanks & mucho appreciation! I hope ye'all have a cosmical musical adventure that cleanses your soul & frees your mind! Take care ye'all,may your groove always be solid & Stay Funky you cheeky munkys! Peace'n'Zen

Thank you for visiting my SC page!
I have been playing in rock bands for more than 50 years having had many exciting gigs.
Playing in the band in front of an audience is an incredible joy especially playing my own original songs.
About ten years ago, I was having problems with my hearing due to playing too many gigs, so I decided to give my ears a rest and focus on making demos at home.
DAW software has made remarkable advances, and now it's easy to overdub and finish a song if you can play  instruments. 
In addition to playing in a band, I discovered the joy of completing songs with overdub on my own.While I was taking a break from my band activities, original songs were piling up on my hard drive one after another.
I wondered if there was any way to get more people to listen to my songs? 
At that time, I happened to learn about a platform called SoundCloud. Musicians from all over the world participated and uploaded their songs there. I also set up my own page on SoundCloud and used it as a place to release my original songs.
Since I started this page, quite a few listeners have come and given me a lot of positive comments. Much more than I expected! I am very happy to contact many excellent musicians through SC. 
Just when I thought I had resumed my band activities, the coronavirus pandemic began. Many musicians lost their place to work and were at a loss.
The pandemic has finally ended, and now Japan's venues have regained their former vitality.
Now I enjoy having gigs and making one-man band songs simultaneously.

My name is Rado and I live in Croatia.

I like top compose music and play the guitar. All of my instrumentals were composed by me and I play all the instruments. 
Best regards, Rado
