James Sudakow is a musician with an imaginative and groundbreaking approach to the electric violin and viola. Classically trained since the age of four, he has modified his training to revise the instrument's sound and potential. The artist uses a heavy distortion to play both lead and guitar like riffs and rhythm sections in much of his original progressive rock projects.
The summit of the advances with the instrument and James’ superior creative talents reach its fruition on the new recording Green. He demonstrates a unique application of the electric violin/viola and Marshall JCM2000 Amplifier in his studio work and electrifying live performances.
Sudakow sites particular influences that pushed him in the direction he arrived at musically and surprisingly enough his heroes are not whom you would expect. Guitar players such as Hendrix and Vernon Reid take credit for the path he decided to travel years ago.
Troy Paul, President of The Frequency summed up the talent that Sudakow brings to the stage and in the studio by saying-"James is one of the most creative and talented musicians in Los Angeles. It's like watching Jimi Hendrix on violin."
Green is conceptual in that it offers many different shades and moods of the Sudakow musical palette for the listener to discover and embrace while each individual composition has a title taken from the basic colors. Think of a classical violinist that decided to swallow some peyote buttons on a vision quest, and only then can you imagine the musical journeys you are about to embark upon after giving Green a few spins. The electric violin takes a radical departure from the norm when it is in the hands of this consummate technician and musician.
