Arcanaz - or also known as David Joseph is a guitarist and composer from Manchester UK - currently releasing his debut EP "When Lightning Strikes". Here is what the man has to say himself:

"I first started playing Guitar when I was 19 - a red semi acoustic, name unknown, which I bought for £20. I sold it 3 years later for £30 ( the guy who bought it thought it was one of those very valuable finds you come across in an attic). I called it "DriftWood" - you needed an anchor to hold the strings down, it had very bad action.

My main guitar is a Gordon Smith Graduate 60 (as seen in my picture), tobacco sunburst in colour, with an array of sounds - it playes beautifully.

Arcanaz was created one year ago by myself - David Joseph. Previously to starting this project I have played in several bands, till that became impossible due to personal circumstances and the fact that founding my own band proved to be an impossible task - as to lack of musicians who were available at the time or the lack off their commitment. Out of sheer frustration I decided to channel my passion for music into a solo project - concentrating on writing, composing and producing my own material.

My debut EP is currently released digitally into 25 country, in most major online stores. To purchase a hard copy, please visit http://www.emaniaproductions.net - the store opens soon :) I am working currently on my follow up album "Gravity Of Love" which is fully dedicated to the lady of my heart. So watch this Space and enjoy the Journey!!!
