And Now For Some Muris Varajic and The Light Pick
From his about page at tinyurl.com
[..]Sarajevo 1992-1995…
3 years of total horror, no food, no water, no electric power, no gas…
3 years under the siege…people were killed everyday…no safe place…
He stayed at home most of the time, and so he took guitar for the first time…somewhere in 1993.
Mostly self-thought, Muris started to figure out licks from Mark Knopfler, David Gilmour, Joe Satriani, Chet Atkins, Steve Vai, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Vlatko Stefanovski and many more.
This large variety of styles helped him later to find himself able to play many stuff with comfort.
He discovered his passion for music and guitar immediately … which made him put all the other hobies to side and concetrate on playing the guitar sometimes up to 7 hours per day, for about 4 years
In 1994 he enrolled Music High School in Sarajevo. This formal music education opened his eyes
to see and notice many things which he was playing, but didn’t know the name or meaning.
The building as a musician has begun.
In 1996 he played his first gigs at clubs in Sarajevo.
Starting then and up till now, he has been working with many bends/solo artists from Bosnia and region.
Muris currently lives in Sarajevo, works as a Solo artist, Hired Gun and a member of a bend Pakt5.
He plays gigs, works in studios, gives classes etc.
Hopefully, still more to come…[..]
