Riff Playbooks: Adam Rafowitz of Arch Echo | 'Immediate Results!'

The incredibly talented Arch Echo lads stopped by our office while passing through Toronto, and they were kind enough to share some killer sections from their most popular tunes.

When it was Adam Rafowitz’s turn in the hot seat, he didn’t hesitate in choosing something to play. And honestly, we had nothing but respect for his selection—a challenging section that’s tough to pull off even on your best day, let alone under bright lights, rolling cameras, and a crowd of guitar nerds watching from three feet away. No warm-up? No problem. True to form, Adam delivered flawlessly, showcasing his effortless command of the instrument.

Using just about every guitar technique in the book, he nailed the part with the same punchy, melodic energy that defines Arch Echo’s sound. His demonstration was not only a masterclass in technical prowess but also a perfect example of the musical complexity that makes the band's approach so compelling. We’re beyond lucky to have witnessed it firsthand!
