I’ve highlighted a couple independent artists that I admire on my blog before. The first one was Cliff Ritchey. Last time I mentioned a guy named Garret Gengler.

Today, I want to shine the spotlight on a friend who will be playing guitar with me at my CD release party. His name is Mark Magnuson. He’s simply brilliant on the guitar and has released a couple instrumental CDs that are worth checking out. I think it’s fascinating that his sales model doesn’t include promoting himself, but rather the music.

You can see his two projects at acousticwedding.com and solitudecollection.com.

I think I just love how mellow and Chamber Orchestra-ish they feel without being cliche’–just timeless recordings on the acoustic guitar. You can also find the albums on iTunes.
