  • Ariel Posen - Fret Success Guitar Show

    Ariel Posen ( @ArielPosen ) is one of those artists who catch you off guard and quickly become one of your favorites. Not only that but he is a fantastic guitar player.
    In this episode of the Fret Success Guitar Show, Dan talks to Ariel about playing guitar, songwriting, and the process, ideas, and motions behind his latest release "Reasons Why". Hear some previews of the new album in this episode.
    "Reasons Why" was released on September 8, 2023, and he is about to embark on a tour including Europe, US, and Canada. This includes dates in Calgary and Edmonton in Alberta, Canada. I have tickets to see him at the Calgary show, very much looking forward to that. To buy tickets go here: https://www.arielposen.com/tour
    With each successive release in his career, Ariel Posen finds his creative tide rising. In 2019, he wrote seven songs for his first album, How Long, and recorded them all, plus some instrumental interludes to fill things out. For his sophomore effort, 2021’s Headway, his songwriting surplus resulted in eight songs being left off the final project. For his latest, Reasons Why, the Canadian singer-songwriter and highly regarded guitarist wrote 30 songs, ultimately choosing 10.

  • Is Mark Knopfler the Master of Guitar Tone?

    So, Is Mark Knopfler the Master of Guitar Tone? Mark Knopfler has inspired so many guitar players including myself. I think he has one of the best guitar tones in the industry. Not just one tone but his selection for the song.  In this video, I go through some of the gear Mark Knopfler uses and we hear some examples of his incredible guitar tone in a live setting from the On The Night Concert in 1993.  Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/CIpliTNJxFc #markknopfler #direstraits #guitartone #guitar #amplifier #fretsuccess

  • Guitar Was Never The Plan

    Guitar Was Never The Plan  Today I thought it was time to upload a video with me talking about how I got to playing guitar.  It was fun to think back about this. I left out some of the finer details but this will give you a good idea of how I ended up playing guitar, via the thought of a saxophone poised on a keyboard, surrounded by Dire Straits.  If you like this kind of thing or have any other questions/topics you want me to cover then please drop them in the comments.  Let me know what you think. #guitar #document #guitarist #musicbackground #stories
