Vahagn "Vahagni" Turgutyan was born in Yerevan, Armenia in 1985 and

of his Father. Vahagni's guitar playing has taken him on several
world tours, festivals, clinics and appearances on TV and radio

results of a fearless musical exploration that have produced three
full-length albums. In Broken Compass, he continues an exploration
that has him venturing through new territory in rock/flamenco fusion
with delicate dabs of ambience and psychedelic guitar swells; from the
globe-trotting rhythmic infections of North Africa to the dry gentle
breezes of an Andalusian summer. All are encompassed in Vahagni's
masterful guitar renditions.
"While staying true to the mission at hand, we took advantage of the
spontaneity of pleasant detours, which led us to creative avenues
resulting in the presentation of a guitar album embodied with Latin
cultures" - Vahagni

media interviews. For more information, promo request, or interviews,
