London Guitar Show line up announced
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 26 March 2009
The line up for the 2009 London Guitar Show, which takes place from 11 Jun at the ExCel centre in East London, has been announced.
Amongst those appearing at the event are headliner Steve Vai, who will present his Alien Guitar Secrets three hour master-class, British guitar legend Albert Lee, and Swans In Flight, whose debut album, launched in spring 2008, was recorded exclusively using acoustic guitars. Another UK guitar great, Phil Hilborne, will be there with his band, plus the show will feature the final of Guitar Idol, the previously reported worldwide online talent contest. See www.guitaridol.tv if you are interested in more info on that.
New to this year’s show is the chance for those attending to claim a free guitar lesson in association with the Institute For Contemporary Music Performance. Organisers will announce a schedule of seminars, workshops and c’leb appearances at a later date, but they’ve already confirmed that editors from the UK’s top selling guitar magazines will be there.
The Guitar Show is part of The London International Music show, which includes Drummer Live, Unplugged and Sound Recording And Technology Show. For more info and tickets see www.londoninternationalmusicshow.com
