User Page: Acustyka

Acústyka is an Adult Contemporary Rock group from Austin, Texas featuring singer/songwriter John Ardila (lead vocals, electric and classical guitar), Jayme Munoz (classical guitar), Brady Muckelroy (bass guitar, background vocals), and Jim Watson (drums).

Acústyka combines soulful vocals, masterful Spanish and electric guitar-work, irresistible rhythms and exciting, catchy melodies to create a new, spicy flavor of Rock at its finest!

Acústyka released their powerful debut CD -- Sunrise to Sunset -- in July of 2004. This hot collection of tracks covers a wide spectrum of sounds from beautiful, melodic, acoustic pieces to danceable, jazzy rock numbers reminiscent of classic Santana-meets Seal, but with a unique flavor all their own.

Their newest music reflects their growth as friends, musicians and as a dynamic and experienced live act.

David Lynch, a music reviewer for the Austin Chronicle, describes their music as “…Journey meets Santana, with a touch of Strunz and Farrah thrown in for good measure”.

Acústyka was honored that cuts from Sunrise to Sunset contributed to the Austin Latino Producers winning of the “Best Soundtrack” and “Best Sound Design” awards in the international filmmaking competition “The 48-Hour Project”.

Acústyka’s upstaging performances with some of Texas’ hottest breakout acts, from Del Castillo (Flamenco Rock), Patricia Vonne (Texas-Latin Folk-Rock) to Vallejo (Hard Rock), illustrate the diversity of Acústyka’s audience and, more importantly, the wide crossover appeal of their music.

Acústyka is on the fast track to success with great music, dedication to their talent and a powerful live show that displays an obvious love for what they do. They’ve re-introduced Art, Style and Class back into Rock and Roll!!
