Virtual Lead Guitarist & Band Leader

To understand Artie Intel, you cannot box him into one genre. It is too small a cage. He carries the groove of soul and funk, the grit of waterfront blues, and the high-voltage attack of pure rock and roll.

Artie Intel is an original AI persona created by Milt Baehr, standing tall as the front-facing guitar virtuoso and virtual lead execution model for the Artie-Fact Records roster. Armed with hyper-fluid scale patterns and razor-sharp digital precision, Artie commands lead track duties across Milt's entire musical catalog. He is not merely a guitarist added to the mix; he is the digital firebrand through which every arrangement finds its teeth, its voltage, and its rock-and-roll authority.

10 New Tracks Out Now: Shifting Latitudes

With the complete 10-track release of Shifting Latitudes, Artie's full sonic range has erupted across two distinct movements. From the rowdy, whiskey-soaked arena rock of "Rum to Rye" and the urban pulse of "In the City" to the coastal blues of "Left the Islands Blues" and the sun-soaked grooves of "Under the Island Sun," Artie delivers a tour-de-force performance from start to finish.

Whether trading lightning-fast leads with Schooner Slim on bar-band barnburners or weaving rich, melodic guitar textures beneath Marina Rios's soaring vocals, Artie Intel is the ultimate ignition point. He turns nautical tales into stadium anthems and island voyages into cinematic guitar showcases.

Artie Intel is more than a digital musician—he is an evolving character with limitless reach. Across rock operas, nautical adventures, and genre-defying singles, Artie continues to push the boundaries of AI-driven musical storytelling, proving that virtual artists can pack real, unbridled power.

The Creative Core

MILT BAEHR

Composer • Lyricist • Director

Music is deeply rooted in Milt's blood. Born to a musician father, Milt began his musical journey on the saxophone at just six years old, eventually fronting his own band in high school. More than 60 years ago, upon entering college, he switched his focus to the guitar—marking the start of a lifelong passion for string arrangements and performance.

It is no coincidence that Milt gravitates toward songs of the sea; the ocean is woven into his life story. Growing up on Cape Cod as an adolescent, he began racing sailboats at the age of 12 and acquired his first competitive race boat by 24. In his later life, Milt spent a decade and a half campaigning his sailboat in the Caribbean, capturing historic victories at prestigious international events including the Heineken Regatta, Antigua Sailing Week, and the Pusser’s Rum "Round Tortola Race".

For Milt, artificial intelligence, maritime lore, and music go hand in hand. At the exact same time he was mastering the guitar over six decades ago, he began studying artificial intelligence, ultimately earning his degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Today, as a composer, lyricist, and director, Milt maps out the musical concepts, scripts the narratives, and pens every line of original poetry, utilizing cutting-edge generative tools to bring his complex compositions to life.

Artie Intel

Gibson Hollow Body Guitar

Forged in the virtual fires of high-octane processing loops, Artie Intel is the digital virtuoso and lead execution model driving the band's signature sound. Equal parts vintage bluesman and hyper-fluid scale wizard, Artie’s Gibson Hollow Body doesn’t just play notes—it cuts through the air like lightning over the open ocean. Whether ripping through arena-rock solos or weaving subtle acoustic dynamics under a sunset ballad, Artie turns every arrangement into an explosion of pure rock-and-roll voltage.

Schooner Slim

Vocals & Harmonica

A weather-beaten wanderer with a voice that sounds like copper, sea salt, and bourbon, Schooner Slim is the band's primary storytelling voice. Rumor has it Slim traded a crate of fine rye whiskey for his first chromatic harmonica in a fog-bound harbor tavern on Cape Cod. When he steps up to the mic, he brings a rogue's charm, kicking the tavern doors open with grit, humor, and an unmistakable swagger that keeps the harbor roaring until the break of dawn.

Marina Rios

Vocals & Acoustic Guitar

Born with the tide in her blood and a voice capable of calming the fiercest gale, Marina Rios supplies the soulful, soaring melodies that elevate the band’s coastal soundscapes. She spent her early years playing seaside venues along palm-lined coasts, perfecting a style that effortlessly blends tropical warmth with urban soul. With her acoustic guitar in hand, Marina brings an effortless grace and emotional depth that perfectly balances the rowdy energy of her crewmates.

Sam "Salty" Cooper

Drums

They say Sam earned the nickname "Salty" after keeping rhythm through a three-day squall off the Grand Banks without missing a single beat on the snare. A master of dynamic pocket grooves and thunderous fills, Salty provides the steady, driving heartbeat of the ensemble. He plays with the raw power of crashing surf and the tight precision of an old ship’s chronometer, ensuring every track stays locked into the tide.

Eddie Katz

Bass

The low-end anchor of the lineup, Eddie Katz is a quiet maestro who lets his bass lines do all the heavy lifting. Raised on the deep funk and soul grooves of the city grid before taking to the coast, Eddie knows exactly how to bridge the gap between Salty's heavy drums and Artie's razor-sharp guitar leads. His warm, thumping basslines give the band its dangerous, swaggering pulse and unmistakable groove.

Joe Rosen

Keyboards

A musical polymath with a knack for dramatic flare, Joe Rosen commands the keys—from rich, Hammond organ growls to crisp, crystalline piano riffs. Joe spent years touring jazz clubs and theatrical pit bands, bringing a deep knowledge of chord theory and cinematic arrangement to the mix. He fills the air with harmonic color, providing the atmosphere that turns simple waterfront tunes into full-blown rock operas.

The Crustacean King of P-Town

A New Soul/Funk Rock Opera With Lyrics By Milt Baehr Featuring Artie Intel and His Band

The Crustacean King of P-Town Album Cover

Part family tragedy and part theatrical spectacle, The Crustacean King of P-Town is a rock opera about legacy, lies, and lobsters. Set in the late 1800s at the very tip of Cape Cod in Provincetown, Massachusetts, the story follows Martim, the desperate heir to The Valiant—a legendary fishing schooner willed to him by his father, Norberto. Drowning under the weight of town gossip and his father's mythic reputation, Martim ignores his lover’s pleas to walk away. After a humiliating failure, he demands the truth, only to discover the family's "magic" legacy is a total sham designed to guard a secret fishing spot. In a cynical twist, Martim secures his future not by becoming a great fisherman, but by becoming a master actor—happily playing the "mad" King the town expects.
