GOODING has been a friend of mine for almost 10 years now, and of all of the people I know, he is by far the most talented and gifted person I’ve ever met. A guitar prodigy and a composer, GOODING’s versatility, which can be found in his catalogue of music is nothing short of genius. With over 600 shows under his belt, and a growing collection of compositions, featured in movie trailers, network and cable television, etc, GOODING is destined to someday be scoring for full length motion pictures, where he will undoubtedly be giving the likes of James Newton Howard and Thomas Newman a run for their money.

I’ve been filming GOODING for almost the entire time I’ve known him at many venues around the country. His shows are electrifying…no pun intended. Off stage, GOODING is a down-to-earth, humble soul, but as soon as he takes to the stage it’s as if he plugs into a 220 outlet!

Beginning in March, GOODING and his band will kick off a 50 state tour. If you get an opportunity, don’t even think about missing his show. To wet your appetite, here’s a piece of the man himself, who I caught up with in LA not too long ago…doing his thing.
