Acoustic guitar performances | Fingerstyle guitar | Music storytelling

Guitarist Maneli Jamal has lived in five different countries (Iran, Belarus, Germany, USA, Canada) and moved 20 times before he turned 18. Few players in his style possess his combination of power and sensitivity, as well as his extensive range of ideas. His rhythmic concepts can be brief and dense to being meticulously explored across multiple movements and real-life anecdotes. The proof of his talent can be seen in his many victories in international music competitions, including a 1st place finish at Canada's Soundclash Music Awards. Additionally, he was recognized as one of the top 30 guitarists under 30 by Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Growing up in a musical family has played a significant role in shaping his distinctive storytelling live performances. He has performed across 5 continents and 17 countries. He has a signature model acoustic guitar named after him and featured on the front cover of the 2015 Toronto magazine, which had a worldwide distribution of 500,000 copies.

Hi! I'm Steve, and I'm a Canadian multi-instrumentalist and composer. Having studied classical and jazz piano, composition, and orchestration, as well as having grown up in the golden age of metal guitar, my approach to the creative process is eclectic to say the least. I'm an adept session player too, stepping in to cover whatever is needed on guitar, bass, or keyboards, in virtually any genre. This channel is dedicated to the more cerebral side of my work: song and gear reviews, stuff about building things, theory lessons...things like that. You can check out my other channel, "Steve Baric Official," which is where I'll be housing all of my music releases. And please remember to visit the links below to follow me!! #AvantLink

I work the most dangerous street in Canada near downtown eastside Vancouver. Videos are unedited, played with maximum soul. Who knows what's going to happen? I meet nice people & lunatics. No one else on YT posts 2 hour improvised solos. I get better the longer I play. It's a form of meditation, getting into the zone!
