A PAIR of Weymouth-based musicians are bringing their Guitar Heroes show to their hometown.

On Friday July 22, guitar fans can revel in the story of their The Story of Guitar Heroes at Weymouth Pavilion.

Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Hank Marvin, Brian May and Slash are just some of the outstanding guitar heroes you will have chance to experience in the show.

This live concert style 'rockumentry' is performed by one extraordinarily talented renowned musician: Phil Walker, and backed by his exceptional band.

With over 20 guitars used on stage, the show accurately recreates the sound and ambiance of each guitar hero.

This provides a rich and diverse experience by producing many different genres of music and showcasing a great deal of variety, sounds and styles.

The show uniquely takes the audience on a journey through the major cornerstones in its history – from the 1950s, when the first legends of the Rock 'n' Roll era took the daring first steps into a new area of music, through to the most creative and inspirational modern guitar heroes of today.

Whatever kind of music you listen to, from rock to pop, from folk to reggae, they all have one thing in common: the guitar.

Whether it's electric or acoustic, there's no other instrument that can boast that it's been the catalyst for so many new ideas, and that it's been at the heart of so many revolutions not only in music, but also in culture and society.

The Story Of Guitar Heroes highlights many of the prolific artistes that have made this happen.

It also offers the very latest in video screen technology to create a larger than life event.

Compounded in a creative and powerful experience this show not only appeals to all those budding guitar heroes out there, but to music lovers of all ages.
