Mario dela TorreGenre: rock Location: Dallas, TX Visits: 3096 | Bio/Info: By drawing from diverse sources of inspiration native Texan Mario dela Torre is creating a sound all his own. Mario's guitar conjures up the sonic manipulation of Pink Floyd psychedelica, Eric Johnson's Beck infused lines, Carlos Santana's Latin soul, Stevie Ray's Texas white heat, Sonic Garden's drop D sledgehammer guitar, and Eddie Van Halen's brown sound. Mario "cut his teeth" working the Texas cover band circuit in south Texas and the Christian music indie scene in the north Texas/Dallas area. He has had the privilege of working with:
Phillips Craig and Dean
MTV pop diva Mikaila
Ted Pearce
Big Methuselah
Susan Gray
Dorothy Norwood
Cynthia Greene (Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir)
DayStar Television
89.7 Power FM
The Journey
Jesse Duplantis
Global Glory
Steve Solomon/Praise in the night

Mario is particularly proud of his guitar work on the CD "Human Sacrifice." The CD received radio airplay with several songs reaching the top 10 list on Christian indie radio stations. The band Big Methuselah was chosen as one of the top 25 Christian alternative indie bands in "7 ball Unsigned Artist who Rock", this list also included Pillar and Mercy Me. These days Mario is busier then ever working on a soon to be released guitar instructional video in espanol, a fusion instrumental band, a new Christian band, and new Latin CD.
