  • Kerns Signature Model “Anti-Star Vi” Guitar
    Media Contact: Adrian O’Brien. Ph: 604-298-8111. Em: [email protected] www.prestigeguitars.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESTIGE ANNOUNCES TODD “DAMMIT” KERNS SIGNATURE MODEL “ANTI-STAR VI” GUITAR January 18th, 2017, Vancouver BC, Canada Prestige Guitars Ltd. is proud to announce the Todd “DAMMIT” Kerns, Signature Anti-Star VI Guitar. Todd “DAMMIT” Kerns, is best known as bass player/backing vocalist of SLASH feat Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators. He is also the front man and guitarist for legendary Canadian rock band Age Of Electric, and a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and producer. Basically Todd does it all and rarely, if ever, slows down. The Todd Kerns Signature Model is set to be unveiled at Winter NAMM 2017, in Anaheim CA. The Signature Todd ‘DAMMIT’ Kerns Anti-Star VI Guitar is the 6 string guitar counterpart to the original Prestige Anti-Star Bass. As Todd spends an almost equal amount of time playing bass and six-string and singing lead in a number of projects including Legendary Canadian Rock Act – “Age Of Electric”, it only made sense for him to have a guitar to ensure that he is rarely without a Prestige in hand. The Anti-Star neck through design was a direct collaboration between Todd ‘DAMMIT’ Kerns and the Prestige Guitars design team and is an absolute embodiment of the playing style Todd is known for. Straight ahead, full-force, rock n roll. The Anti-Star VI Guitar’s unique offset body shape features a 7 piece mahogany/maple neck-through design with reverse headstock and coupled with rosewood fingerboard.

  • SLASH Featuring Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators (Bio) “I Think It's Time to Set This World on Fire/I Think It's Time
    SLASH featuring Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators (Bio) “I think it’s time to set this world on fire/I think it’s time to push it to the edge/I’m so f---in’ bored so trip the wire/It may never be this good again” --From the opening power chords of the single and title track of WORLD ON FIRE WORLD ON FIRE is the new album from SLASH featuring Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators, and it comes on full throttle and in- your-face, a hunk of burning rock „n‟ roll that takes no prisoners. Intensifying the band‟s sound and vision, it marks the follow-up to their succesful and acclaimed 2012 debut, Apocalyptic Love, also released on SLASH‟s own indie Dik Hayd International label distributed through Caroline. “We‟ve been playing together for awhile and I think it‟s gotten to the point where everybody‟s comfortable in our own skins,” says Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist SLASH, who has amassed album sales of over 100 million copies, with seven GRAMMY nominations, a GRAMMY award and countless accolades. “It turned out to be a very easy process. We definitely had chemistry from the very first time we entered a room together. It was instantaneous magic.” WORLD ON FIRE represents that chemistry, as SLASH, vocalist MYLES KENNEDY, bassist TODD KERNS and drummer BRENT FITZ blaze through 17 songs that run the gamut of topics, some derived from tour bus conversations between the singer and guitarist. These range from the pointed sexual politics of “Battleground,” “Dirty Girl” and “Stone Blind,” the anti-war sentiments of “Dissident” and the coming-of-age saga “Bent to Fly,” to such charged issues as elephant poaching (“Beneath the Savage Sun”), child abuse in the Catholic Church (“The Unholy”), addiction (“Wicked Stone”) and the perils faced by females of a certain age in show business (“Withered Delilah”).

    Slash's solos shine at sold-out show | Music | Entertainment | Toronto Sun 12-03-28 11:19 AM Slash's solos shine at sold-out show JASON MACNEIL, SPECIAL TO QMI AGENCY FIRST POSTED: SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 2012 03:07 AM EDT | UPDATED: SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 2012 03:36 AM EDT Slash in a February file photo. (Ethan Miller/AFP) The only axe Slash had to grind Friday night was his guitar, not dealing with any speculation about Axl. A guest speaker at this year's Canadian Music Week – and answering questions about whether Guns N' Roses would perform at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's induction ceremony repeatedly during press interviews – Slash finally let loose on stage before a sold-out crowd at Toronto's Phoenix Concert Theatre who were in paradise. The top-hat sporting guitarist, along with his backing group the Conspirators (including acclaimed singer Myles Kennedy and Canadian Todd Kerns) tore through a rich back catalogue as well as a lone tune from his forthcoming studio album Apocalyptic Love into early Saturday morning. The five-piece group opened the lengthy set with the mid-tempo rocker Ghost as Slash – wearing shades and a black skull and crossbones t-shirt, let his playing do most of the talking on the small club stage. From there the hard-driving, foot-stomping Mean Bone energized the band that admittedly hadn't played together for some time. Heck guitarist Frank Sidoris was making his debut in the band! Playing without much rest between songs, Slash and company ploughed through Velvet Revolver’s Sucker Train Blues which garnered a large response from the tightly packed throng.

  • Get the Call
    GET THE CALL Advice from Some of Canada’s Best & Busiest Hired Guns By Ken Kelley you thinkWhen of a “rock star,” your thoughts likely lend themselves to someone performing before hordes of adoring fans night after night, living the dream of countless adolescents (and adults) worldwide. It used to be that musicians toured in support of albums; now, the in- verse is true, and regardless of how many number-one albums or singles they may have to their credit, an undeniably great live show remains a critically import- ant contributor to many artists’ career longevity. Rightly or wrongly, not all musicians get equal time under the spotlight. And while this might run counter-intuitive to the notion of becoming a rock star, there is no short- age of musicians ready and willing to lend their talents supporting known artists – and who enjoy a comfortable living because of it. Inspired by Fran Stine’s documentary Hired Gun, we spoke with a handful of Canucks who DESIGNED BY FREEPIK perform alongside some of the world’s biggest superstars, including information on how they got there and advice for anyone looking to follow in their footsteps. 42 • CANADIAN MUSICIAN Todd Kerns While not everyone looking to break into tapped to replace longtime Bon Jovi guitarist the music business will have high-profile op- Richie Sambora in the event he needed to portunities tossed their way right off the bat, if temporarily leave the band to focus on reha- ever, Kerns suggests musicians be open to new bilitation. possibilities, even if they push you outside of “It was April 14th, 2011, and Jon Bon Jovi your comfort zone.
