Instrumental hard rock guitarist Chris Bolint, 29, has released a new instrumental album, Embers Alive.
The Indiana-based Bolint, who's also a classically training cellist, draws his inspiration primarily from classic rock and classical music.
Bolint, a Berklee College of Music grad, wrote most of the music on the album and recorded it over the course of two and a half years with a small group of musicians.
He recently performed live on Chicago's WGN Radio, competed in the Guitar Gods Festival Competition and is now playing shows around Chicago as he plans a 2016 U.S tour.
Embers Alive is available through iTunes.
