Emil Werstler is an American guitarist and musician based in Nashville, Tennessee who is perhaps best known for his work in metal and gypsy jazz. In 2004, Werstler became lead guitarist for the metal band Dååth, whose second album The Hinderers peaked at No. 49 on the Top Heatseekers chart in 2007. In 2009 Dååth released The Concealers on Roadrunner which reached No. 35 on Top Heatseekers and was placed as No. 3 on a list of the "top twenty metal albums of 2009" by Metal Sucks. In 2010 Werstler released the instrumental metal album Avalanche of Worms as a collaboration with Eyal Levi with the album receiving a largely positive response for its musicianship and experimental nature.
By 2011 Werstler had been confirmed as the new lead guitarist for the metal band Chimaira. With Werstler as a co-writer, Chimaira's final album Crown of Phantoms was released in 2013, reaching No. 52 on the Billboard 200 chart. Werstler announced his departure from Chimaira in late 2014, with the rest of the band dissolving shortly afterwards.
Since 2006 Werstler has worked with artists such as Arsis, Austrian Death Machine, Enders Game, Jason Bieler, Sylencer, The Agony Scene, Unearth, and Xerath. In 2018 Werstler launched his solo project Verlorener. In addition to teaching privately Emil has contributed to guitar publications such as Premier Guitar, Guitar World, and JamPlay. He releases content periodically on his YouTube channel, teaches clinics across the US, and has performed at various events including Experience PRS.
