Ryan Knight, whose axe work you might know from The Black Dahlia Murder and Arsis, is gearing up to release his new solo album Sunbelt Bliss on November 16. In anticipation, Knight is streaming a new track called "Chica Funk," which is all the neo-classical country shred you could ever want and then some. So not quite the crushing death metal you're looking for, but it still rules!
Here's what Knight had to say.
“A little over a year ago I tracked an album of 9 tunes with some great musicians/people in Atlanta, Ga. Co-produced with bassist Kevin Scott (Jimmy Herring Band, Wayne Krantz, FORQ), it was an arduous process, and much respect to those out there working on your own endeavors and seeing them through.
Ultimately, I wanted to write some melodic, catchy tunes that were much different than anything else I’d been involved with in the past. The end result of that is Sunbelt Bliss. Huge thanks to the gentlemen who lended me their talents and support, Sunbelt Bliss will be officially avail Nov 16th on iTunes, Spotify, amazon, etc, but you can preorder digital here ryanknightguitar.bandcamp.com and physical here www.sunbeltbliss.com, cheers!”
