CELLULOID DEBRIS

NEW ALBUM RELEASE

Celluloid-Debris-Front-Cover-Vibrance-flat-red-Border-5-30-19

     CELLULOID DEBRIS is the long-awaited follow-up album to American Matador and EE Ticket. It is the first guitar instrumental album in over 25 years for Marc Bonilla. Back in 1993, Bonilla became heavily involved with film scoring, working with several notable composers and then carving a name for himself in the world of TV and film, earning an Emmy nomination and working on several prominent films and television shows.

     Bonilla felt that after 25 years of working with so many of his constituents, it was time to turn the attention and experience he had collected toward another personal musical pursuit – a new guitar instrumental album. The approach needed to be different and at the same time reflect the experience and knowledge acquired over the past quarter century by working with so many respected artists.

     The album is an exercise in guitar orchestration. Bonilla approaches the guitar like an multi-orchestrational instrument – blending and overlaying a formidable amount of guitar tracks much in the way an orchestrator would parcel out a score to various members of the symphony. The result is a new way to feature the colors and timbres of the instrument, while keeping composition and virtuosity at the forefront. CELLULOID DEBRIS brings symphonic dynamics to rock instrumental guitar, all the while being accompanied by some of the most highly-respected artists in the music business.
