Reviews and Interviews
Guitar Player Magazine - February 2008 "Curtis Fornadley punctuated his beautiful melodies by “scratching” the guitar against his chest."
Guitar Player Magazine - March 2007 "Curtis Fornadley whose debt to Jeff Beck and Eric Johnson is readily apparent offers up a blues-jazz-rock hybrid.."
Guitar Player Magazine - My Space Review "What a dizzying ride! Fornadley barely lifts his foot off the gas throughout his onslaught of licks, riffs, bends, and Beck-isms—and the hyperkinetic vortex is further intensified by bubbling, gurgling loops pulsing under a relentless groove—but, like any good thrill, the adrenalin spike is well worth subjecting your ears to such a maelstrom."
