    Hey, I'm Mark Abrahams. Maybe you’ve stumbled across this page accidently or maybe you put my name in a search engine after hearing the recent announcement that I had joined Wishbone Ash as their new guitar player and wanted to find out more about me, either way… WELCOME! Born in Leeds, UK in 1978, I’ve spent the last 30 years, living and breathing guitars. I have a music shop in Castleford, West Yorkshire, which sells… you guessed it… guitars! When I’m not in my shop, I’m playing guitar with the legendary twin lead guitar band Wishbone Ash, alongside original founding guitarist Andy Powell and when they’re not on the road, I can be found somewhere around the North of England playing in the Yorkshire rock band, Coyote. I grew up listening to bands such as Dire Straits, Eric Clapton and of course Wishbone Ash… who have always been my favourite band and main influence. Also blues guitarists Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Cray and Peter Green have influenced my playing style. ​ Previous live work has seen me playing over 100 dates a year with Coyote as well as touring the UK alongside the likes of Oliver Dawson Saxon and the amazing ex Guns n Roses guitarist Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal. ​ I use Gibson, Fender and Elvidge Custom Guitars, ENGL and Fender amps, Pedals by TC Electronic, Carl Martin, CAE, Friedman, Xotic, Ernie Ball, Boss, Homebrew Electronics. I also love, use and endorse some of the best pedals i have ever played, from the Italian company 'Nemphasis'.

    Matty Amendola

    Matty Amendola

    Talented, versatile and uniquely-determined, Matty has been playing drums professionally since the age of 13, has recorded on a countless number of albums, released two of his own and has quickly become a recognized producer and songwriter. In 2008, he started music incubator, 825 Records, Inc., delivering material from a wide-ranging roster of artists (Katie Lee, Fleet Walker, The Lovegoods, Jay Shepard). He has landed world-wide broadcast licensing placements, developed dozens of independent artists from the ground-up and recorded and shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the industry including Adam Levine and Ty Taylor of Vintage Trouble. A Brooklyn native, Matty has been making big moves and is being recognized for his work in the New York City and national music scenes. Don’t let his young looks fool you – this experienced musician started on drums at age five, and within a few short years he was sneaking into bars and clubs to sit in with as many musicians as possible. As a teenager, Matty started working as a musician for hire, making his mark performing on major television shows, national tours and studio work with some legendary heavy hitters. Encouraged by his father, Billy Amendola, who had three Billboard Top 10 dance hits with his band Mantus, Matty developed his talents beyond the drum kit, learning guitar and writing his own music. By age 13, Matty was playing with a variety of bands, opening up for larger acts in nearly every small venue in New York City. Throughout high school, Matty worked as a drummer for hire for studio work and live shows. He also started running his father’s studio, helping young talent by producing their music and giving them a professional, marketable product. In late 2006, right out of high school, Matty embarked on a 22-city tour as both drummer and MD for Jump, a dance competition shown on Nickelodeon, and toured with Nick Diaz and Weird Old America. Through this extensive touring, Matty quickly became a well-known drummer within the industry for his hard-hitting rock/funk style and appeared in advertisements in every drum magazine in the United States. He got his first taste of fame playing bass in TV personality Damien Fahey's band, The Classic Futures. In addition to co-writing and co-producing their debut release, Another Way, Matty performed with The Classic Futures on MTV's TRL as well as on tour throughout the Northeast. His experience with them helped him discover his skill for studio work. “I love making parts and sounds feel multi-dimensional,” Matty states. “I really love producing.” In early 2008, Matty chose to stop touring and focus on producing in order to create marketable music for young artists. I quickly went from red carpets to dingy studio carpets in recording studios,says Matty. And so, the music incubator 825 Records was born. Matty works closely with every artist on the 825 roster, using his songwriting and producing expertise to craft raw materials info polished, finished musical gems. He built a small team to drive the marketing and publicity campaigns of each artist and gained wide regard in the industry as a label that stays true to its independent roots. Artist development is best put into the hands of the artists themselves,said David Weiss in Sonicscoop.com. Matty has also periodcially released solo material since 2007; with each track transitioning easily between heavy rock, catchy pop and slow ballads, forcing the listener to wonder what style he’ll pull out next. Grammy Award Winning audio engineer and now co-worker, Butch Jones (Rolling Stones, Talking Heads, Madonna) says, “Working with Matty is hard to put into a few short words. But it’s a real charge for me!” Amendola rebuilt 825 Records' studio and facility in the summer of 2014, with the help of studio builders Chris Harmaty & Brian Dorfman. Since then, it’s very rare to catch Matty on stage, but if and when you do, it’s always something special. From corporate events for IBM & Nike, to private parties with Steven Tyler, Vince Neil, and Adam Levine, be sure to follow Matty on his social networks to keep up on all of the action! Matty has had the pleasure to produce, record, perform, and/or teach clinics with industry legends such as: Adam Levine, Justin Guarini, Jody Porter, Elliot Easton, Mark Hudson, Hugh McCracken, Steve Lukather, Nuttin’ But Stringz, Tom Scott, Vince Neil, Ty Taylor, Leslie West, Mike MacIvor, Paul Gilbert, John Blackwell, Vinny Appice, Will Lee, George Small, Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, Doane Perry, Charles Perry, Gary Hoey, Dunn Pearson JR, Bette Sussman, Rudy Sarzo, Elaine Caswell, Carmine Rojas, Bruce Kulick, Tituss Burgess, Jon Paris, Temar Underwood, Aaron Spears, Dave Matos, Mark Rivera, Tinker Barfield, Denny Seiwell, Jay Messina, Kip Winger, Curtis King, Carmine Appice, Liberty Devitto, Jena Kraus, Teddy Andreadis, Toni Rose, Butch Jones, Gary Van Syoc, Janice Pendarvis, Tommmy Byrnes, Vinnie Zummo, John Moyer, among many others.

    Aldo Mella

    Aldo Mella

    As a self-taught musician my first experiences were within the ambit of rock music during the ‘70s. At the age of eighteen I was drawn closer to jazz and dedicated myself to studying the double bass. This was also the start of an intensive concert period, as well as a period of in-depth collaboration with Italian and foreign musicians. The 1980’s and 1990’s were periods of extremely varied and intense experiences, which led to my personal growth as an artist (AREA 2 – MILESTONES QUARTET with FLAVIO BOLTRO etc.) *see COLLABORATION below. During this period, over and above significant activity as a double bass player, my passion for composing music also developed in projects like XAXEXO FUNK - MELLA & ALLIONE QUARTETTO JOKO VOCALE CONCORDE and in 1994 I formed L’ARCHETIPORCHESTRA: a Big band that included the best jazz exponents from Turin. The Orchestra cut its first CD in 1995 for OFR and received many favourable reviews in specialized magazines in America. In 1997, my introduction to the pianist FRANCO D’ANDREA led to the formation of a new quartet with ANDREA AYASSOT (saxophone) and ALEX ROLLE (drums). While I was a member of this quartet I took part in numerous festivals and shows (which included shows in AUSTRALIA, SLOVENIA, SPAIN, INDONESIA) and I cut 13CDs (*see DISCOGRAPHY). In 2014 forms the Youlook group: Luisa Cottifogli vox and Gigi Biolcati Percussion, with which he recorded the CD Desert Island. Currently, in addition to the collaboration with pianist Franco D'Andrea, he is working on the new album of Youlook. At present, in addition to being an active musician I am a sound engineer with my own recording studio (ACOUSTIC SOUND).

WHAT I THINK We must learn to listen. “Never ask limits” has always been a philosophy to follow so constant in my studies, both in studio and live. Making music means to work with emotions bare hands, knowing how to manage the right notes to vibrate the right chord on our mood. So I discovered” the world of composition and arrangement”, a fascinating area, where rules designed assume a more malleable, where anything can be justified by the end. “Study has helped me to understand, play helped me to listen. “

    Avery Johnston

    Avery Johnston

    16 Year old (2016) Avery Johnston personifies what being a guitar prodigy is truly about. Fascinated by the guitar at early age of 4, he has spent his young life learning to master the instrument. His indispensable thirst for music has been the driving force of his talent - his love for playing music is the return for his dedication and hard work. Classic rock music is the catalyst for his playing style. His guitar god role models range from Jimi Hendrix to Guthrie Govan. Other musicians that inspire his diverse playing style place Al DeMiola, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai at the top of his guitar virtuoso’s list of the best. Avery performed on stage for the first time at age 9 when he was invited by Nashville recording artists Aces Up to share their stage. That was the beginning of a remarkable journey for this young artist that drives his love for performing today. Since then Avery has had the honor of performing with artists Chris Ballew (Presidents of the U.S.A) and John Batiste at Seattle’s prestigious Paramount Theater. He has shared a stage with 10 time Grammy nominee Meshell Ndegeocello in the iconic Moore Theater. “I am honored to have been mentored by some of the industries finest. What I project on stage and the emotion I put into my music are culmination of those that I have met and worked with along the way,” says the high school junior. A member of the South Sound Blues Association, PSMFYA and Moore Music Alumni, Avery also credits these and other community based programs with inspiring him to pursue his music interests. Finding venues to play in has always been a challenge, due to restrictions on age. Organizations like these give young musicians an outlet for their music. Avery’s first band, Insuburban Avenue, formed when he was just age 12. By age 15 the band was touring, recording and creating a fan base all along the West Coast. After working with Producer Wes Schuck and Two Fish Studios, Insuburban Avenue released their first EP titled “The 5 Year Plan”. Recently taking part in a blues project Avery and the Emerald City Blues Band headed to Memphis TN in January, 2016 to perform during the International Blues Competition and all youth showcase.

    Gio Mirage

    Gio Mirage

    Giovanni Melendez from San Juan, Puerto Rico began playing Puertorican “Cuatro” at the age of 15. Three years later he bought a guitar and began what led him to become a highly recognized guitarist in the Puerto Rican metal scene.

He also has a unique fingerpicking style, which he adapted to guitar from the “Cuatro”. His accomplishments include sharing the stage with internationally recognized bands like Job For a Cowboy and August Burns Red, a tour though the lower east coast of the US, and two self produced music videos. Gio Mirage (as his friends call him) also gives private guitar lessons to aspiring metal guitarists. Currently Gio is writing material for his personal solo project and for gear reviews.
