Warner E Hodges International All Stars in Blackpool

Warner E. Hodges, the American rock guitarist best known for his work with Jason & the Scorchers, brings his International All Stars to Blackpool. Hodges, called by bandmate Jason Ringenberg "the only guitarist in the world who can really bridge the gap between James Burton and Angus Young," is known for a style that melds hard rock, heavy metal, punk, and country.

Attendees can expect a show filled with guitar heroics: spinning solos, over-the-shoulder guitar throws, and a setlist drawing from his work with the Scorchers, Dan Baird & Homemade Sin, and his own Warner E. Hodges Band. His performances are known for raw energy and showmanship, with Hodges often playing solos with a cigarette in his nose and a longneck beer bottle in his mouth.
