Posted on Sunday, May 01 @ 12:00:00 UTC by nightowl

MonkeyFest is a new UK-based music festival taking place from the 1st to the 3rd of July 2011 at Bisley Pavilion, Woking. Hosted by Rob "The Monkey Lord" Chapman - who is frequently YouTube's UK #1 most-viewed musician, and is internationally acclaimed for his free online tuition [or learning] - Rob is bringing guitar tuition from the screen to the stage at MonkeyFest.

MonkeyFest is a unique event combining tuition and performance, and with a line-up comprising of blistering shred guitarists, smooth classical artists and driving rock bands, it has something to offer everyone. Guitar heroes such as Guthrie Govan, Andy James and Alex Hutchings are confirmed to perform and teach alongside the likes of Godsized, Haken and Sons of Icarus topped-off with rising talent, including Ben Wilshire, Sammy Coulson and Adam Lee.

MonkeyFest is a one-of-a-kind festival experience run by guitarists for guitarists, who are absolutely mad about guitars, guitar music, gear and the fraternity and brotherhood that is sacred amongst players. MonkeyFest is a gathering of like-minded musicians.

With a line-up of virtuosos from all over the world, and a fantastic venue to hold the event, MonkeyFest tickets are available from just £55 at www.seetickets.com.
