uKrease adds this nice piece about Marc and 'Chasing Waves' on his website on the run up to Guitar Idol '09."Yep, it`s me again, showing off another extremely talented guitar player....I`ve been exposed to so many over the weeks leading up to the Guitar Idol 2009 that my head is still spinning from the amount of talent that is out there for the picking. Meet Marc Playle, 23 year old guitarist extraordinaire from South Shields in the UK, finalist in the Guitar Idol 2008 competition, and from what I`ve seen on the interviews on local UK TV stations, a very mellow guy indeed. In my view, this guy has it all : technique, tone, clarity, some very cool gear to play with, and most importantly, melody. A lot of people will say, as they have on various forums where his videos have been posted, that he has a disability. I tend to look at it the other way around and think that he has *more* ability than most people. When you read his tale I`m sure you will agree. You can catch Marc playing some of his other tunes on his official website (still under construction but a very cool site), or you can just Google his name and wade your way through over 12,000 results that come up. Out of all his tracks I`ve heard this one in particular caught my attention. "Chasing Waves" is the kind of song you can listen to when you`re driving your car on the open road, it goes down well at parties, you can probably even use it in an elevator. Best of all is to just put it on, put your feet up, close your eyes and let the music do the rest.

"Way to go dude, this is some of the finest playing I`ve seen in ages, and will definitely be following up from time to time on your new material." Read the original article at www.ukrease.co.za
