"Bourassa kicks off with such a driving pop rock intro that I thought this was a vocal song. Psych! It's an instrumental, but Bourassa supports his arrangement with catchy verse/chorus melodies, rather than just shredding over chords. There are shreddy bits, but they're unleashed solely as the song's emotional spikes. Smart stuff."

Bio
Growing up listening to punk rock bands like NOFX, Relient K, Rancid, Blink 182, The Vandals, and The Decendents, Eric Bourassa thrived off of high-energy music but still longed for something more. When a friend playing Joe Satriani's "Surfing With the Alien," he immediately knew- this is what he was made to do.
Eric began practicing more, honing his chops in the woodshed, all the while writing instrumental rock songs that couldn't seem to escape his punk rock influences. He realized he just may have found his niche.
Eric put out two albums, the most recent on Itunes, and formed a band.
Bourassa is currently playing shows and sharing the Gospel of Christ in the process, hoping to use his music as a ministry to change people's lives.
He still practices constantly, knowing that he will never be satisfied with his playing level, striving to create something better.
