    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Venue Contact: Denise M. Abbott Pikes Peak Center for the Performing Arts 719.477.2117 – [email protected] Promoter Contact: AEG Presents Kellie Donahoe, Marketing Manager 720.931.8718– [email protected] KENNY WAYNE SHEPHERD BAND Pikes Peak Center | Tuesday, May 19 Tickets will go on sale on Friday, February 21 at 10 a.m. COLORADO SPRINGS (February 18, 2020) -- AEG Presents is thrilled to present KENNY WAYNE SHEPHERD BAND live at Pikes Peak Center for the Performing Arts on Tuesday, May 19. Doors will open at 7 p.m. with the show starting at 8 p.m. Tickets, which range from $39.50 to $65 plus applicable fees, will go on sale on Friday, February 21 at 10 a.m. They will be available at the Pikes Peak Center and The Broadmoor World Arena box offices and online at PikesPeakCenter.com, BroadmoorWorldArena.com and AXS.com. There are few artists whose names are synonymous with one instrument and how it's played in service to an entire genre. Utter the phrase, "young blues rock guitarist," within earshot of anyone with even a cursory knowledge of the modern musical vanguard and the first name they are most likely to respond with will be Kenny Wayne Shepherd. The Louisiana born axeman and songsmith has sold millions of albums and thrown singles into the Top 10 while shining a light on the rich blues of the past and forging ahead with his own modern twist on a classic sound that he has embodied since his teens. In a 20-year recording career that began when he was just 16, Shepherd has established himself as an immensely popular recording artist, a consistently in-demand live act, and an influential force in a worldwide resurgence of interest in the blues.

  • Brixworth and District Newsletter Learn, Laugh, Live
    Brixworth and District Newsletter Learn, laugh, live Registered Charity No 1178196 Issue 76 August 2021 THE BIG DEBATE – WHO IS THE GREATEST GUITARIST With so many talented and accomplished musicians using the guitar as their instrument of choice, from the early bluesmen to modern-day shredders and rockers, it is inevitable that no two-people will choose the same guitarist as their “greatest guitarist of all time”. It would be very easy for me to say that, in my opinion, my vote would go to …………. However, that is not my intention. Instead, this month’s musical journey may, hopefully, shine some light on a few players with whom you might not be too familiar, and who you might like to give a further look and listen to after this. Although a guitar is just a guitar, the sounds that they make in the hands of the ‘top players’ can be very different, as I will endeavour to demonstrate in this month’s randomly ordered selection. We start off with a player who is technically perfect, and whom we saw playing the piano in an earlier musical edition of the newsletter. That is ERIC JOHNSON, who is way above the technical skills of the more well-known Eric Clapton. The track I have selected really does demonstrate his virtuosity on the 6-string Fender Stratocaster, the tonal quality and changes are superb and a delight on the ears - Eric Johnson - Trail of Tears ‘Live 1988’ - YouTube Jazzing it up a bit, we have Swedish showman YNGWIE (Ing-Vay) MALMSTEEN, whose concert and album playlists includes classical pieces from Paganini, Vivaldi, Bach, etc.

  • O Matter Their Level of Achievement Or Fame, Most Guitar
    a blues album, Fire Red Moon, on the Blind Pig label. A mix of originals and covers, it’s highlighted by “Lie To Me,” with lead vocals by Noah Hunt, of the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band. There are also renditions of Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads,” an instrumental take on Albert King’s “Born Under A Bad Sign,” a cover of Muddy Waters’ “Rollin’ And Tumblin’,” and originals that reflect Chaquico’s time spent listening to Cream, Hendrix, ZZ Top, and other acts. What prompted you to pick up a guitar? You were right in their demographic wheelhouse when the Beatles hit the U.S. I was just start- ing to play guitar at the time. My first instrument was the accordion, and I’ve heard that Clapton played one... o matter their level of achievement or fame, most I guess it was p o p u l a r guitar players spent time “in the trenches” – jamming with our in garage bands, playing clubs, maybe getting to tour parents; regionally. But Craig Chaquico didn’t kick it much my dad p l a y e d with kids of questionable talent or inclination. Instead, by accor- the time he was 17, Chaquico (pronounced cha-KEY-so) was dion and jamming with the likes of Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady, sax, but I gravitated and the Grateful Dead. • Growing up 100 miles from San to guitar be- Francisco, Chaquico took to the cause of the city’s music scene at a young Beatles, and age. “We’d pile in a van and go there wasn’t a lot of accordion music to concerts at Winterland, get on the radio (laughs)! home at four in the morning, get grounded,” he recalled, laughing.

  • Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa Black Coffee PRD75441
    Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa Black Coffee PRD75441 Grammy Nominated Artists Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa release their new record ‘Black Coffee’ on January 26th via: Provogue (Europe) and J&R Adventures (US & Canada) Featuring songs made famous by Edgar Winter, Ray Charles, Etta James, Steve Marriot, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Lucinda Williams, LaVern Baker & more. It has been 4 years since Grammy nominated and number 1 Billboard Blues album Seesaw was released by singer- songwriter and blues-rock powerhouse Beth Hart and guitar hero Joe Bonamassa. Since then, they have both been on fire, both in the studio and live. So, the time was perfect to reunite for another collection of ten soul gems that encompass Hart’s breath-taking vocals and Joe’s masterfully expressive playing. Black Coffee will be released on January 26th, 2018. With producer extraordinaire Kevin ‘The Caveman’ Shirley (Joe Bonamassa, Led Zeppelin, Black Crowes, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, Rush) back at the helm, the result digs deep into the soul catalogue where they honour and re-imagine songs from Edgar Winter, Etta, James, Ike & Tina Turner/Steve Marriot, Ella Fitzgerald, Lil’ Green, LaVern Baker, Howlin’ Wolf, Lucinda Williams and Waldeck. Recorded in 5 days at Studio at the Palms, Las Vegas in August 2016 they have once again recalled some familiar names in Anton Fig (Drums/Percussion), Ron Dziubla (Saxophone), Lee Thornburg (Horn Arrangements/Trumpet/Trombone) and welcomed in Reese Wynans (Keyboards), Michael Rhodes (Bass), Rob McNelley (Rhythm Guitar), Paulie Cerra (Saxophone), Mahalia Barnes (Backing Vocals), Jade Macrae (Backing Vocals) and Juanita Tippins (Backing vocals). Talking about the sessions behind Black Coffee, Seesaw, 2011’s Don’t Explain and 2014’s Live in Amsterdam, Shirley gives some insight of what they are looking to achieve; “We’re trying not to dig into a playbook that’s been done many times, which is the old soul classics.

    10/10/13 Experience Hendrix at the Fabulous Fox America's News English Experience Hendrix at the Fabulous Fox Forsyth County News (Cumming, GA) - Sunday, March 21, 2010 Readability: >12 grade level (Lexile: 1310L) Author: Ira Miller; Columnist, [email protected] Jimi Hendrix died on Sept. 18, 1970. I remember the date because that was my first birthday. And even though I can't play a lick of guitar, I have inherited a love of music. If you love music, you will love being at the Fabulous Fox on Saturday night as "Experience Hendrix" heads to Atlanta. This is the fourth edition of the biennial concert tour paying homage to the music and legacy of Jimi Hendrix. Joe Satriani, Jonny Lang, Eric Johnson, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Brad Whitford (of Aerosmith), Doyle Bramhall II, Ernie Isley, Living Colour, Susan Tedeschi, Double Trouble's Chris Layton, Robert Randolph, along with original Hendrix bassist Billy Cox will be performing music written and inspired by the legend. Cox, who first befriended Hendrix when the two were in the 101st Airborne division of the US Army, played in both the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys. "It's a thrill for me to play Jimi's music for audiences now as it was in the 1960s. The Experience Hendrix tours have shown how timeless this music really is," Cox said. Featured in every show are signature songs including "Purple Haze," "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)," "The Wind Cries Mary," "Little Wing" and "Red House." Kenny Wayne Shepherd, a veteran of several Experience Hendrix tours remarked: "Jimi Hendrix's music has really inspired [me] to push the limits of my own music.
