WELCOME TO ISSUE 107 OF GUITAR INTERACTIVE MAGAZINE...
Kenny Wayne Shepherd has never been a guy who takes the easy road. Since exploding onto the blues-rock scene as a teenage guitar prodigy, Shepherd has always pushed the boundaries of modern blues-rock, never settling for the status quo. Now, after nearly three decades, the blues guitar great is back with 'Dirt on My Diamonds', Volume Two—the second half of a double album. As Shepherd tells Nick Jennison in this exclusive interview, "there's still so much more to come."
With a YouTube following of over 135,000 subscribers, Dave Simpson's meticulous gear reviews, gripping guitar tutorials, and raw takes on life have captured the hearts of a global audience. Now, the social media star is taking his craft to new heights with Red Giant, a powerhouse rock project with an impressive debut album that's now available worldwide. Simpson sits down to discuss Red Giant, the inspiration behind his songwriting and more.
In this issue's Tech Session, Nick Jennison dives into the brutal yet nuanced guitar stylings of one of metal's most terrifying players: Slipknot's Mick Thomson.
And of course, as with every issue, we bring you the best and latest gear reviews from the world of guitar, with our expert team offering insights that we hope will inspire your playing and creativity. Enjoy the issue!
