What the Industry has to say...
"Velazquez constructs a fabulous basic track (Medius Grind) chock full of surprises...."
Michael Molenda - Editor Guitar Player Magazine (January 2009)
You may find Gil to be a bit of a schizo- but that is a good thing. His songs run a gamut of styles from rock to techno, with a latin influence no doubt honed when touring Puerto Rico. What ties everything together is some great electric guitar playing ala Santana. triCityNews, Asbury Park, NJ
With a completely unique style, Gil Velazquez sways from Satriani-like riffs to Santana-shaped rhythms, easily taking his listeners to a very comfortable place. The familiar feeling of his multi-genre sound instantly endears enthusiasts of all types of music. There is sure to be something
here to please everyone! Peggy Murphy, aka:DJ PJ RadioUgly, New York
I can definitely say that Gils' guitar playing and style is very unique in its own way.
I like the diversity in each song and how it delivers a musical message to the listener.
Daniel Haight, DJ WCRX Chicago, Illinois
"When I first heard Gils' music, it was as if I'd stumbled onto a Santana LP I had never heard.
The style and flavor of the Latin influenced rock are very strong in Gil's music and he is amazingly talented. Cindy D'Adamo, CEO – LadyLake Management, Mechanicsburg, PA
"The music on My Introduction merges the avant-garde with the accessible."
