Steve Marchena

     Steve is a good friend of mine that I met when I whent to see his band Hypaspace (no they are not rap) play at Perks Coffee House in Norwood. He also happens to be one of the most talented guitarrists I have ever seen, and I'm not just saying that, this guy knows how to play. Along with Hypaspace he is also in a band called Superbug, the difference is that Superbug has a singer while Hypaspace is more of an instrumental group. Steve also has a solo project in which he plays classical guitar, I'm not a huge fan of classical styles, but this was worth seeing, it sounded increadible, In fact I have never heard a guitar make that kind of sound.
      Another thing that caught my attention about Steve was the facial expressions he makes as he plays, when he starts into a crazy guitar solo he often smiles and nods his head toward the crowd. This may not sound like much but when your listening to him and his band play, you almost get pulled away from reality, and when he does that it brings you pulls you back, it allways makes me laugh a little when it happens. Recently I hooked him up with my dad and his wrestling league BLOWW (Boston League of Women Wrestlers) and he sometimes plays with them. Also if your interested, his cds may soon be sold at Horror Buisiness in alston. The store is located down the street from the Blanchards on Harvard street. I will let you know if his cds end up being sold there or not and look out for my post about Horror Buisiness coming soon.
