Quotes from and about VICK
"I feel we're at a turning point where the fretless guitar is shedding its novelty status and becoming a viable instrument in its own right." MAV in Guitar Player
"He plays fretted and fretless guitars, and sometimes his music takes a little getting used to." PBS Guitar Show FRET NET
".......Vick’s new release explodes with uncanny experimental guitar playing." AbstractLogix.com
"Pick up a copy of his CD if your ready to have your mind blown.......music in favor of the esoteric." Guitar9.com
"....Michael's music is ground breaking, new, at times bizarre, but always underpinned by an extensive musical knowledge and background." Unfretted Records
"The future of guitar is missing something-namely frets!" MAV in Guitar Player mag 2007
“.....Vick’s guitar is blazing / true musical pioneers.” Fuse Mag
"Musicien atypique s'il en est, Michael, avec sa tête d'éternel adolescent, nous a servi, avec son collègue Jeff à la batterie, une musique vraiment loufoque, un brin de Zappa génétiquement modifié, un fond bluesy, le tout dans un bain d'humour évident et de virtuosité à l'apparence légère et facile." La Guitare
“Love it / taking cues equally from free jazz &
headpounding aggressive hardcore.”
Ink19
"Technically, I think Michael has the aptitude to outplay many indie musicians and make tons of dough from it, but, in my opinion, he chose the more solitary path because a true musician never compromises his creativity and individuality, and, in the end, that’s the most important thing one can have." MikkiTarro
"The NYC Fretless Guitar Festival.......Organized by unfretted veteran Michael "Atonal" Vick, the show presented renowned players such as New York City's Elliot Sharp and Seattle's Tom Baker......" Guitar Player
