Guitar God David T. Chastain checked in with Hardrock Haven to talk about his new instrumental CD Heavy Excursions; what he thinks the video game Guitar Hero is doing to “influence” kids to pick up an actual instrument; an upcoming release titled Instrumentalized; what his label Leviathan Records is up to; playing live; and a whole lot more.

Chastain has been compared to everyone from Steve Vai to Allan Holdsworth, but after a couple decades honing his skills and releasing guitar focused Metal that sounds like no one else, he has carved out his own niche in the pantheon of guitar greats. Tune in now to get to know Chastain, and pick up Heavy Excursions as well.
