The Reds and Purples are perfect for our slightly down tuned setup and have served us well over the years. They hold their own on long tours, which is a pretty demanding situation to put them, but is what we need out of them.’ 

Another new endorsee is Scott Eames guitarist of Decadent Nation who, this year, embark on their second headlining Military Base Tour for troops serving across the world and includes playing on a battleship in the Atlantic!

Rotosound makes workhorse products that make my job easy.’ 

Plus joining in the metal mayhem are guitarists Alex Kearney and Steve Mills from The Wounded Kings along with bassist Alex Eliadis. This unique doom metal band has recently released their fourth album and will be playing in the UK and across Europe this summer.
