 “Wonders of the Invisible World” is a 1693 book recounting the Salem Witch Trials. The author, Cotton Mather, espoused the belief that the prosecutions of the “witches” were to gain God’s blessings over the colony. Fast-forward over three centuries, and another collection of wonders is earning a “Guitar God” his due. This time, it’s Ottawa’s Darren Michael Boyd<\/strong>, that is casting a spell over fans and critics alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the successful release of his 2019 debut album, Lifting The Curse, which earned the veteran guitarist a Josie Music Award nomination, Boyd is back with his 2nd album, Wonders Of The Invisible World. Recorded and produced by Boyd during the COVID Quarantine, the ten-track album of guitar instrumentals looks to pick up where Boyd’s debut left off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video for the first single and title track is available at https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=KjxAnXPHOro<\/a>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My objective has always been the same,” says Boyd. “Play loud, be seen, and be heard…and proceed to tear the world a new one!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
