About Vince
Vince's passion for playing the guitar began in 1976. His early beginnings of playing in high school garage bands led to credits that include recording with Michael Jackson, touring with 80's pop star Tiffany, tours of Finland and India and recordings on numerous radio commercial jingles. After years of playing the Southern California club scene, theme parks, USO shows, casuals and everything in between, the Southern California native is finally pursuing his first love of instrumental guitar with the release of his first CD, titled "Highway 154."

Following his formative years of teenage youth, Vince decided to go to Golden West College to study music in more depth. After receiving an AA degree he went on to Long Beach State College to pursue a bachelors degree in music. After a year and a half he received a scholarship to the University of Southern California. Although reluctantly, he declined the offer so he could get out in the real world and start playing.

Along the way, he spent some time working with some of the top studio musicians at "Brauers Makin Music" in Los Angeles. Here Vince gained a vast insight to the talent of tone. From Vintage amps to the latest Boutique amp, the experience proved invaluable.

After years of experience, this guitarist is embarking on a new chapter from sideman to artist. This is just the beginning!
