Whitesnake’s Joel Hoekstra and Devil City Angels’ Brandon Gibbs have joined forces to form a powerhouse acoustic duo, playing limited dates in between working with their many other successful projects. Their live duo performances are high-energy, featuring a wide variety of material from bands that each of them has been a part of, along with innovative original music, and great stories from their respective careers. Many, especially in the Rock Music world, recognize the name Joel Hoekstra immediately for his current tenure as lead guitarist in Whitesnake and playing arenas each winter with Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Joel also joined Cher for her Las Vegas residency. Joel is also known for his highly regarded touring work with Foreigner, Night Ranger and an original member of Broadway’s Rock of Ages Band. He currently is also a member of Revolution Saints with Dean Castronovo (Journey) Jeff Pilson (Foreigner/Dokken.) He has also received a litany of guitar/musician high honors and awards and is considered currently among the best Rock guitarists worldwide!! Brandon Gibbs is a powerhouse front man with searing vocals and blazing guitar riffs. Brandon was asked to sing back up for Poison during the highly acclaimed Stadium Tour that featured Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett. Brandon is also the front man and co-writer for Devil City Angels (w/Rikki Rockett and Tracii Guns). Brandon’s music has been featured on ESPN, he continues to write and record as a solo artist. While this show has an intimate vibe, don’t let that fool you; the sound is bigger than ever with these two guitar extraordinaries, and the stage presence that radiates from this duo makes their live performance a “must see!” This is an acoustic rock show that does not disappoint.
