Rob Balducci was a humble and cool fella to hang with for an afternoon and a Hell of a guitarist. He has released 3 albums on Steve Vai's record label, Favored Nations, and is currently preparing material for another collection of melodic hard rock instrumentals. His sense of melody is really tasty and if you have a penchant for this kind of guitar playing I encourage you to check out his music. He's quite capable of flash and burning shred but rarely buries the accelerator.  As always, thanks again for listening and supporting the Couch Riffs Podcast!
