Show Notes
Prolific jazz-fusion and rock guitarist Guthrie Govan - also known for his collaborations with the bands The Aristocrats, GPS, The Young Punx, and very recently, two-time Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer - never had a game plan for his musical career. As a self-taught guitarist with the ability to play any song by ear, he always felt that music came naturally to him — it was the language he was born to speak. He talks about his early experiences transcribing for guitar magazines and teaching music, then discovering Indian Classical Music through Pandit Debashish Bhattacharya, and how he turned his ‘inner voice’ from being a distraction to his trusted guide throughout his musical journey.
