Influences
Musically? Everyone...but especially anything extreme and percussion & guitar-centric. Preference for solo or small ensemble, but large ensemble when it's done right (Beethoven, Elfman, etc.).
Everything else? Sagan, Hefner, Locke, Kant, Jefferson, Pythagoras, Takamatsu, Pirsig, Laird, Gilgamesh, Lucy & the first sapien to touch fire & his descendent who segued from manipulative to referential language, ancient Greek pankrationists, Gillean of the Battleaxe, Maslow (Hierarchy), Kohlberg (Moral Development), Tony Alva (Dogtown), Knaus & Denny...oh, and this guy right here:
David M. McLean is an independent musician who runs Skinny Devil Music Lab ,
performs solo (clinics & gigs) or with his duo ALIEN BLUE, teaches privately, writes instructional columns for a variety of music web-sites, conducts the "Guitar Gods" interview series for Tinfoil Music, runs a small recording studio, and more. His solo work features rather outlandish electric & acoustic guitar (hard rock format), and his duo finds him almost exclusively playing acoustic guitar in a bluesy format.

$$$ YOU can earn FINDER’S FEES from Open Sky Studio! $$$
Hello friends and associates!
We've had an EXTREMELY BUSY spring and summer at our studio, recording many great Atlanta artists such as Mastodon, James Hall, Connor Christian, Siberia My Sweet, Apocalyptic Visions, Sixth Hour, Greedy White Citizens, as well as projects featuring members of Black Label Society, Queensryche, Seether, Megadeth.......and many others! We've also recently hosted well-known Atlanta producers such as Nick Didia, Jeff Tomei, Ryan McDougal....
....and we want to make sure this awesome trend continues into the rest of the year, so.....
We are introducing our "FINDER'S FEE" program!
It's pretty simple, really....
If you send us a band/artist/producer/etc. who books studio time with us, e-mail or call to let us know that you've told them about us, and make sure they mention YOUR name and phone number to us when booking the session to confirm the referral, and upon completion of the session and payment for the session, YOU will receive a 10% commission on the total amount they pay for the session!
There is no limit to the number of referrals you can collect on, and no limit to the number of days...
If you send us one band or a hundred bands, we'll keep paying you a commission for the days they book!
If they book one day, you get paid for one day, if they book 30 days, you get paid for 30 days....
...and so on!.... You can't lose, and it requires very little effort on your part!
So refer your friends to our awesome studio, and make some $$$!!!
Thank you. I'm wanting to take my son to one of ur upcoming shows he's getting into playing. I'd like to see u play it's been a long time. Thank u again my friend
