Steve Vai
Steven Siro "Steve" Vai (born June 6, 1960) is an American guitarist, singer, songwriter, and producer, born and raised in Long Island, New York. Vai is recognized for his virtuoso guitar playing in the realm of the music industry and has a career sales of over 15 million records. The three time Grammy Award winner and 15 time nominee〔 started his music career as a transcriptionist for Frank Zappa in 1978 at the age of 18 (while attending Berklee College of Music Boston), and, midway through his 4th semester, moved to California to record and tour with Zappa from 1980-1983.〔 Vai began his solo career in 1983 after leaving Zappa, and has since released 18 solo albums. Vai has recorded and toured with Alcatrazz, David Lee Roth, and Whitesnake, has recorded with artists such as Mary J. Blige, Spinal Tap, and Ozzy Osbourne, and toured with G3, Zappa Plays Zappa, the Experience Hendrix tour, as well as his own extensive solo tours.
Vai is an acclaimed pioneer in his field for his innovative guitar technique, eclectic music, and industry changing contributions.〔 In 1985, Vai designed the JEM guitar, which at its genesis incorporated a series of unique and groundbreaking features that have since become staples in design throughout the guitar industry. Vai also designed the first commercially produced 7 string guitar, the Ibanez Universe, which has gone on to inspire an entire generation of nu-metal artists. With his first solo album “Flex-Able” (released in 1984), Vai created a new genre of virtuoso guitar music that revolutionized what was believed possible on the guitar, and in 1990, his release “Passion & Warfare” gained the acclaim of both the press and his peers as one of the most important and influential rock instrumental albums of all time.
