Wil Lopez

Creative Session Guitarist

Wil Lopez on SoundBetter

A creative and versatile guitar player from Southern California. From pop to hard rock, to country to punk, I have been able to push my creativity and fulfill any needs the music needs while still retaining my artist integrity.

I began playing music at age 13 on believe it or not, Bb Clarinet in the middle school band. I then transitioned into Eb Baritone Sax(the big boy sax) and eventually picked up the electric guitar and that has been my passion for half of my existence on this earth. Over the years, I have toured, recorded, played shows all across the southwestern United States with artists needing a solid rock guitar player. I have also help produce, write and record original music with plenty of bands in San Diego California.

Everything from alternative, pop, hard rock, pop-punk, indie, classic rock, I have done it.

Whether you need help writing music, or need a guitar player to write a part to complete the song, you won't find a more versatile player! Would love to work with you and hear about your project and see what I can do!
