"The Hardest Working Guitarist
in Rock n Roll"

There are two things that make Gil Tougas so notable. First, it’s his incredible talent and mastery of music. When Tougas takes the stage and starts singing, it’s impossible not to take notice. His voice is undeniably fantastic – and I don’t mean that in the gritty, rock n roll sense. Tougas has a truly incredible set of pipes. When he sang What Is and What Should Never Be, you could have closed your eyes and imagined that Robert Plant from 1969 had taken the stage. More impressive than that, though, is his skill with an axe. Tougas is one of those players who are somehow capable of making the most complex, intricate guitar solos look utterly and unbelievably effortless. The instrument functions almost like an extension of himself – he’s completely at ease onstage, and playing even the most difficult riffs and bridges looks like a perfectly natural affair. Every trip up and down the fretboard was smooth, calculated and uncomplicated. It was really a treat to watch – I guess that’s what 37 years of practice will get you!
