Official press release:

New Jersey-based guitar shredder, Angel Vivaldi, has announced what he hopes to be a yearly NAMM performance showcasing some of the best up-and-coming talent in the guitar world today. Taking place in Anaheim, CA on January 21 during the yearly NAMM trade show, this all-ages event will be held at Chain Reaction (minutes from the convention center) and features Vivaldi along with 14-string guitar prodigy Felix Martin, math rocker’s Covet (feat. Yvette Young), Israelian metal/ hard rock guitarist Nili Brosh, Australian prog guitarist James Norbert Ivanyi and ex-As Blood Runs Black guitarist Dan Sugarman.

Vivaldi comments:

The Guitar Collective is a gathering of today’s most innovative guitar players together on one stage. I wanted to showcase as many different approaches to the instrument as I could and with this year’s lineup the bar is set quite high! I do not doubt the guitar’s ability to inspire, so I’m excited to see what else The Guitar Collective will showcase for the years to come.”
