Zack Artis has mastered fingerstyle guitar, and has become a virtuoso guitarist.

When he was 10 he and his family moved to Petersburg, Virginia where he bought his first acoustic guitar for five dollars at a yard sale. After many lessons, he was then inspired to buy an electric guitar. He began to sell his own drawings from door to door until he accumulated 800 dollars. After convincing his father, he was allowed to buy his first electric guitar. Not long after Zack started teaching guitar lessons from home. By the time Zack was fourteen he discovered instrumental rock guitarists like Steve Via, Tommy Emmanuel and Joe Satriani. This inspired him to reshape his playing style. Zack persued his passion in music and learned over 400 songs of all styles within his first two years of playing. Today Zack continues to perform and teach guitar full time. He has also produced three solo original albums. Zack is currently performing in the mid atlantic region.
