Matt Eaton
Hailing from Dallas, Texas; Matt Eaton was first inspired to play guitar by the legends Carlos Santana and Jimi Hendrix at the early age of ten. Studying other guitar greats of the era like Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, and Michael Schenker, along with later masters such as Vai/Satriani, John Sykes, George Lynch, Judas Priest's Tipton/Downing, and Iron Maiden's Smith/Murray he has developed a very unique style that has been said to "raise mystical emotions".*
Matt gets his trademark Metal tone with the help of Ibanez electric guitars, Digitech effects and Marshall amplification.
He also plays Alvarez Yairi acoustics and Roland keyboards (don't tell the metal fans).
