Ambient Guitar, Chapman Stick & PBass Meet for the 1st Time!
I recently visited my friend Bill Vencil, the ambient guitar whiz at Chords of Orion. I had dusted off the Chapman Stick and brought it with me. Even though I had some concerns about playing it well, Bill rolled the tape and posted the result at his YouTube channel. That’s Bill’s son, Nathan, on his Fender Precision bass.

Ambient Guitar Meditation “Soul’s Joy”
Bill Vencil has always been a phenomenal musician and composer. When I first met him he talked about Charles Ives as if he knew him personally. For my part, I shared my profound reverence for Lynyrd Skynyrd. Somehow, Bill and I connected as musicians. Although we don’t get to see each other too often, we recently sat down and “turned on the tape.” Bill posted this video to his YouTube channel, Chords of Orion, where he teaches ambient guitar techniques, demos equipment, and performs.
