Austin Zoph / Lead Guitar

Austin is the youngest member of the band, at only 17. He is a lead guitar player with a jazz/fusion/prog/metal background. He has an ever-lasting ambition to be unique and explore/write music with innovative and original feeling that comes from solely within himself. This is noted by his way of reaching for notes that otherwise would not be obvious, and uncommon timing of note structure in his compositions.

He is a perfectionist, and has an extremely well trained ear, an extended knowledge of audio recording/computers/instruments, and brings a very unique texture to the band’s sound. He is the only member of Apostles of Rock who does not hold Christian beliefs however, he agrees with some aspects of the band’s message and very much enjoys playing for the band.
