Great channel — really useful. I found you through a layering Nashville guitar video. I've dabbled with it, but now I'll use it in my recordings. Such a great sound.

After three decades of playing, I had put down my guitars for the last year. But your passion for music has inspired me to start playing again. Thank you!

About
Robert Cassard
Chart-Topping Producer • Guitarist
• Singer • Songwriter • Educator
I've been playing guitar, singing and writing since I was a kid. Started making money on gigs in 6th grade and never stopped, journeying through rock, solo acoustic, jazz, classical and various hybrids along the way.
My band Cosmic Spin has twice reached #1 on the UK iTunes Alternative-Folk chart. First with our cover of Neil Young's After the Goldrush in September 2020, and with my original song Messenger in November 2021.
My live music career has been balanced by equal time in the studio, recording and producing myself and other talented artists.
I learned long ago that magic happens when you match your creative process with the right vibe and the right tools. So Guitar Discoveries, Voice Discoveries and Recording Discoveries are my musical "tool talk" series. They're where I share the awesome guitars, accessories, tips, tricks and singing and recording techniques I've discovered during decades of performing, recording and mixing.
Musical exploration and collaboration are how I have fun and share experiences and excitement. I hope you find plenty of inspiration here that benefits you and the people around you.
Spread music = spread love.
