Who hasn’t dreamed of a classic rock band releasing one more perfect record at the peak of their creative powers?<\/p>\n

For instance, what musical masterpiece would have resulted had\u00a0Eric\u00a0Johnson\u00a0continued in the vein of Ah Via Musicom? \u00a0\u00a0What prog\/fusion-oid hell could have been unleashed had Rush focused on nothing but “YYZ”-like instrumental anthems?<\/p>\n

Spearheaded by guitarist Eric Barnett (Guitar Player Magazine\u2019s national Guitar Superstar Competition Finalist), drummer Kevin Aiello and renowned bassist Uriah Duffy (ex-Whitesnake, Fantastic Negrito, Steve Stevens Band, Lyrics Born, and more), Magna Carta Recording artist Points North stands on the shoulders of iconic bands such as The Police, Rush and Dixie Dregs, but clearly cut their own artistic path. Simply put, Points North is a leading light of modern instrumental guitar music, helping to revitalize the genre through their technical prowess, superior musicality and compositional skills.<\/p>\n
