Genre – Melodic Instrumental Rock, Rock, Hard Rock, Progressive Rock, Metal Sounds Like/For Fans of Joe Satriani, Rush, Tool, Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, and Yngwie Malmsteen. Pyramids on Mars is the creation of guitarist Kevin Estrella from Hamilton, Ontario. He wanted to do something musically different that would stand out from the crowd. With elements of rock, progressive rock, metal, and Baroque classical music, Pyramids on Mars takes you on an auditory and visual experience. As an instrumental band, the lead guitar has taken on the “vocals” of the music with soaring, well-crafted, beautiful melodic phrases.
Kevin has been compared to Joe Satriani, crafting soaring lead melodies as memorable as your favourite song. Kevin’s sense of identity comes from the music he is most passionate about, which is Baroque classical music, citing influences from composers J.S. Bach and Antonio Vivaldi. Most of Kevin’s guitar melodies are violin-inspired. Kevin is a Neck Illusions-endorsed artist, alongside Steve Vai (David Lee Roth, Whitesnake) and Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson).
