Andrew Soto was born in a little town called San Pedro in California on July 2, 1988. He did not discover his passion for music during his early formative years and wasn't sure where life would take him at the time. When Andrew turned sixteen, he thought about becoming a drummer and set out to buy a drum set. Lacking the funds to buy the set, he settled on an electric guitar. At first, Andrew did not take guitar playing seriously. But that didn't stop him from practicing and learning what he could from musical influences. His musical tastes expanded after a year and his skills at guitar started to drastically improve. After a couple of years of practice, Andrew found his true calling through the guitar and it was because he lacked those funds to buy a drum set. With Andrew, one door closes and another opens. He is not afraid to venture into unknown doors and his music reflects his fearlessness. NOW in 2010 Andrew Soto has been trying to take a leap as a solo artist. His skill is wide-ranging and he can tap into blues, rock & speed metal seamlessly. Andrew's fingers move lightening fast and his music tells a story that is packed with passion, rage, edginess and is deeply introspective. Andrew weaves tight licks to create the atmosphere of a thrill ride. At times, he is reminiscent of an early John McLaughlin, lead guitarist of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, and some of his melodies have a jazz-fusion like quality. Collapse
