NASHVILLE, TENN. – As one of the premiere rock guitarists and preeminent guitar teachers in Australia, acclaimed Simon Gardner recently released his latest single “You Know Why I Asked You Here.” This instrumental, almost 5-minute song is about overcoming obstacles and what may challenge your life and your dreams. The song is available worldwide on all digital platforms including Spotify and Amazon Music.
This tune, which was written and produced by Simon, is simply “when the day of reckoning arrives – you must stand your ground, enjoy the challenge and respond with fervor,” says Simon. With the inspiration drawn from the documentary Vikings, this song is “really just a metaphor for any challenge that life throws at us or any challenge you have set for yourself.”
This song features Darren Muller on drums and keyboardist Derek Sherinian. As a professional guitarist and teacher, using top-notch instruments is very vital to making his own unique and powerful sound. “This song features a 07′ VOS 58 PT Gibson Les Paul, a 06′ Fender Tele Deluxe, Ibanez Universe and RG plugged into a Mesa Mark V 90 watt head and Lonestar 2 x 12 Cab.”
Being compared as a high-tech David Gilmour by Mike Varney with Guitar Player Magazine, Simon’s new release comes as a follow-up to his previously released albums and singles. When the pandemic put the brakes on musicians from touring, Simon thought it was the right time to write and record some new music. It goes without saying that everything happens for a reason.
