Steve Rothery Guitar Solos Pt.2

The prog titan joins us in the studio with a bevvy of classic gear! Welcome to the show. We are delighted to welcome Steve Rothery to the show… Steve is a founding member of UK progressive rock band, Marillion, now into their fifth decade of highly successful recording and touring. Alongside many other projects Steve also has his own band and is showing little sign of slowing down in terms of writing, producing and making great music. He's taken a day out from that busy schedule and joined us to walk through some of the key gear down the years AND get a look at that now legendary Squier Strat. Enjoy the show! Big thanks to Andy Rotheram for the considerable assistance today!
