Brian Hunsaker
Brian's musical journey began in 1989 Seattle, sparked by his fascination with Joe Satriani's "Surfing With the Alien." After acquiring a battered Gibson Corvus, he immersed himself in the sounds of Iron Maiden, Dio, and other rock legends, dedicating 4 to 6 hours daily to practice. Later, while fronting the short-lived metal band Sunny Sinister as lead vocalist, he ultimately found his passion in instrumental guitar music.
His involvement in the NW Shredfest compilation series soon featured him as one of the cutting edge guitarists in the Seattle area, increasing his profile dramatically. At the same time, Brian formed Dio tribute band Stand Up & Shout, and playing sold out shows all over the Seattle area, further cementing his name as a top talent in the scene. Striking while the iron was hot, his debut album "Across the Galaxy" was released to rave reviews in guitar publications across the world, setting off the band Triaxe's popular tours around Washington state in 2012, with the triple threat of Brian, George Varghese, and Sergio Ortega alternating dizzying feats of dexterity with their axes.
Now, with a commitment to innovation and backed by endorsements from top brands, Hunsaker is about to unleash his next project on the world, consisting of melodic metal and hard rock vocal pieces. Get ready to turn up the volume and submerge yourself in his powerful musical vision!
