JEFF LOOMIS

Jeff Loomis has seared his mark on multiple subgenres of metal with his distinctive rhythmic style, smooth technique and breakneck speed. As a teen, his uncommon guitar style and sharp songwriting prowess shook the music scene in his home state of Wisconsin. After being crowned the winner of a Guitar Wars competition and a battle of the bands with his first band, Fear-Tech, Loomis went on to lend his impressive talents to the Seattle-based progressive metal band Nevermore. His impressive career has produced two solo albums bursting with intricate fretwork and a spot as the current lead guitarist for renowned Swedish death metal band, Arch Enemy.
