Manuel Mota

"Experimental jazz and blues guitarist born in Lisbon, Portugal in October 22nd. Started playing guitar in his teens, soloing over records. In the late 80's his discovery of experimental music, jazz and all the underground activity of that period inspired him to turn his work public, which happened in 1989. From that to 1997 he studies and experiments with prepared guitar, mainly acoustic, and focused his work on drone music, influenced by Phill Niblock and La Monte Young.
