Powell Young - Spiritual Rhythm | Chinese Heavy Metal / Shred

Powell Young was born in Nov.1, 1965 in a small town in the northern China. He has studied music since his childhood, and at present Powell is teaching Er-Hu and oriental traditional percussion in the Beijing Chinese Opera college, where he also developed his own guitar skills and found a way to mix Chinese traditional music with shred, fusion and heavy metal. As a guitarist Powell is influenced by virtuosos such as Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Gary Moore, Frank Gambale, Paul Gilbert, Greg Howe, Ritchie Kotzen, Jason Becker...etc. In Oct.10, 2002, Powell opened for Satriani and jammed with Joe at his Taipei live concert and showed his incredible guitar technique in front of 2,000 guitar fans. Powell Young is the first Chinese guitarist to become offered an endorsement deal with Musicman guitars.
