罗马尼亚吉他手
GiS represents the initials of the artist Ghiurca Ilarie Sorin. Born in a small town from Mures County, Romania, on November 5, 1970.
His training as a musician began at the age of 11 when he began studying the violin for two years, then at the age of 13 he turned his attention to another instrument, the guitar. Crazy for Elvis Presley’s music, he learnt his first musical chords, inspired by the king of rock and roll. Thanks to him, GiS got acquainted with gospel music , leading to a further development of his musical culture . At the age of 15 he formed the first band and started exploring other areas of rock music, this way discovering the hard - rock and the heavy -metal. Driven by new sonorities that he had found, he tries to write for the first time, and of course with a certain shyness, a few songs ,that were included in the band's playlist, among other cover versions of famous songs . He performed a series of shows , participating in various festivals across the country. This happened until 1995, when, by chance he heard a song in a friend's car signed by Joe Satriani. He remained astonished by the sound of the guitar and the power of the message sent by Satriani’s music. So it comes into view an idea of a solo project that would reflect his skills and knowledge of music.
In 2002 he joins the guys from Bridge Boys, a rock band, with whom he remained until 2007, when the first demo records, belonging to the solo project, were finished. They took an acceptable form only at the end of 2011, when the recordings of his first album, entitled " ELECTRIC BLUE " took place. The album was completed in the summer of 2013 appearing under the name GiS and being released in January 2014.
