"This was not on the schedule, but we had to post it for our EMGtv audience. Zakk does unimaginable things with our EMG ACS acoustic pickup."Zakk Wylde is among the artists confirmed for the eighth edition of the celebrated Experience Hendrix Tour, set to launch in March 2014. These special event performances represent an ongoing tribute to the music and legacy of JIMI HENDRIX.
Presented by BandFuse: Rock Legends, the month long tour, brings together a diverse group of musical greats paying homage to the abiding genius of Jimi Hendrix. This year’s line-up ranges from metal legend Zakk Wylde, blues icon BUDDY GUY, JONNY LANG, KENNY WAYNE SHEPHERD, the innovative DWEEZIL ZAPPA, LOS LOBOS’ stalwarts Cesar Rosas and David Hidalgo, left-handed blues rocker ERIC GALES, Texas guitar gods DOYLE BRAMHALL II and ERIC JOHNSON, funk legend BOOTSY COLLINS, MATO NANJI [Indigenous], and, from Serbia by way of Memphis, ANA POPOVIC.
