DON MOCK

Don Mock’s musical upbringing probably closely parallels that of any guitarist who started out in the 60's. As a teenage athlete, Don’s competitive spirit spilled over into his early playing experiences as all the local players tried to see who could learn the latest and fastest solos from rock guitar hero's like Alvin Lee, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Mike Bloomfield. Don's reputation grew from the rock/blues guitarist to the jazz guitarist in the Northwest. His ability to quickly learn the styles of other guitarists turned out to be quite an advantage in the long run. After evolving through the various rock, blues and jazz phases, borrowing from all the best, Don is now the master of his own style, a style that is literally a "fusion" in the purest sense of the word. Don is well known among guitarists for his amazing technique and total command of the instrument. read more...
