    Andy, as soon as you started playing that riff, I had an internal sensation like getting into a hot bath. I've listened to your music more than any other artist over the past year, especially Resolution. Many, many dog walks late at night have been spent with your music in my ears. Your phrasing, melodies, tone and balance between aggression and sensitivity just really touch my heart and I want to say thank you. Please keep on making more music, and putting out more content on KZread like this so that I can continue being inspired and learn from you.

    I don't think Andy get enough credit for how great of a player he is. He's an incredibly melodic player to begin. But on top of that what makes him stand out to be if his impeccable use of dynamics. Not only does he know how to play dynamocally, but he know when. Which is arguably one of the most over looked guitar skills. Every lick, every measure has this dynamic wave to it which makes it feel very alive. As opposed to something more neutral like how a drum machine often sounds. It just has this very human feel to it while also being consistant rythmically. There are other players who have dynamics down too, but I feel like Andy takes it a step past most. Most players have something they excel at. Guthrie Govan is awesome at improvising. Paul Gilbert is a beast at picking. Steve Vai has his smooth legato runs. An Andy Timmons has his incredible use of dynamics.

    As someone who's written a million lyrics and poems - one book (Waltz of Semantic Tongues), I love watching blank slates evolve into full-on artwork and the tributaries we're afforded along the path to completion. I played drums in my youth for nearly 20 years, straight off records, and so have always loved great musicians. The appreciation I have for the creative mind can't be expressed enough. Andy is an amazing guitarist I've enjoyed for eons along with others like John Petrucci, Nuno Bettencourt, Shawn Lane, Guthrie Govan, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Frank Gambale, Allan Holdsworth and other amazing musicians. It's enlightening on so many fronts to soak in what these musicians have to offer. Thank you so much Andy. Rock on!
