Jackson Premieres New Gus. G Video

August 31, 2016

Jackson is privileged to premiere a brand new video from guitar wizard, Ozzy Osbourne band member and FIREWIND band leader Gus G.

In support of 2015 sophomore solo effort Brand New Revolution, the newly signed Jackson artist has released a music video for instrumental opening track, “The Quest.”

Directed by Ivan Colic/iCODE Team, the stunning footage features Gus G. with his custom Jackson Star guitars in scenes that look straight out of dystopian action film Mad Max.

“Today is a very exciting day for me – not only it’s the start of my solo tour in the U.S. (w/ Angel Vivaldi), but the premiere of my new video for ‘The Quest,’ noted Gus G. “This is a very special track, as it’s the only instrumental from my Brand New Revolution solo album, and it’s an over the top, high energy metal track, with tons of shredding, big melodies and crazy arrangements. Since the album release, people have been telling me how much they’ve been enjoying this song, so I decided to make a video for it!

“Working with the iCode Team in Serbia was a great experience and our goal was to make a crazy, cinematic, action packed video inspired by some of my favorite ’80s cult classic films like Mad Max, Conan the Barbarian and Highlander. If you’re into any of these movies, I’m sure you’ll dig this video! Plus, is there a guitar player on this Earth that wouldn’t wanna kill bad guys with his guitar superpowers? Enjoy my friends!”

Gus G.’s next run of North American solo dates kick off today in New York. See complete tour dates below, and get tickets at www.bandsintown.com/gusg. You can also get VIP upgrades here: www.AngelAndGus.SoundRink.com.
