Mateus Asato taking a break from music and shutting down Instagram account

Mateus Asato has deactivated his Instagram account, and is taking a break from music. Asato has always inspired countless guitarists on the social media platform, by his incredibly melodic playing.

Asato mentioned that he hadn't played guitar in 3 weeks. “I honestly don't remember staying away from my source of creation for so long." “This feels very weird because I don't even feel the excitement of grabbing my guitar to enjoy the goodness and blessings that music creates on us artistically.”

It seems Mateus is taking an indefinite break from social media in general. Head to the full post from Guitar World for Asato's entire Instagram message.
