Santo Garofalo

Growing up on the Jersey shore, Santo honed his vocal and percussion skills by playing with many gifted local musicians and participating in the Point Pleasant Although Santo was fairly proficient on drums and vocals, the instrument that really captured his heart and imagination was the electric guitar. When he heard such guitarists as Brian May (Queen) Eddie Van Halen, Alex Lifeson (Rush) and many more, he longed to make the guitar sing like they did. As he had opportunity, he'd ask friends to show him a few chords on the acoustic his brother in law lent him.
