ICMP alumni and social media sensations Pete & Vinnie Play have launched a new project as metal band, No Writer.
The London-based duo Pete Napper and Vinnie Minotto met at ICMP while studying our BMus in Popular Music Performance course.
Bonding over a love of rock music and guitars, the pair have since developed a devoted online community of more than 145,000 followers thanks to their engaging content and virtuoso guitar skills.
The debut single from No Writer - 'The Wheel' - is a tribute to their love of iconic shred guitarists such as Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai and Jason Becker combined with their passion for contemporary rock acts Slipknot and Gojira.
Vinnie said: "'The Wheel' is the first song we ever wrote."
We wanted to show the world how much we love the guitar and how fun it can be. I think it also represents the connection that Pete and I developed over the years we've played together."
Pete added: "'The Wheel' represents everything that playing the guitar is about. It has all of our favourite elements of expression on the instrument, and we hope that expression resonates with people the same way that it resonates with us."
