Axes & Anchors Adds New Artists And Workshops To 2016 Cruise

The upcoming 5-day/4-night 2016 Axes & Anchors cruise – setting sail from Miami, FL on February 20th aboard the Carnival Victory – is pleased to announce two new artists to the cruise lineup.

Gilby Clarke, best known for his time as rhythm guitarist for Guns N’ Roses, and Tony Macalpine have now been added to the roster.

In addition, the cruise is announcing a variety of non-guitar oriented workshops for music fans and musicians of all backgrounds to enjoy. Musical education and teaching is very important to the Axes & Anchors mission. Whether you are a vocalist, bassist, drummer, photographer, tour manager or just interested in learning more about music in general, you’ll have much to enjoy on the cruise.

In addition to the guitar workshops run personally by 10 of the cruise’s attending guitar gods, beginners and seasoned musicians alike can experience workshops like:

Rock photography
How to Write Lyrics
Tuning and Amplifying Your Sound
Sight-reading of Music
Voice Training
Glam/Metal Make-up
Clothing Modification

Ann Squire, co-founder of Axes & Anchors comments, “We've had passengers calling and telling us how excited they are that we are offering workshops, and they are even asking for other very specific workshops - like voice training and sight reading - so while we are focused on guitars, we are also providing something for everyone. It's exciting to see everyone so jazzed about our new format for rock cruises.”

Also scheduled to appear on the cruise are Zakk Wylde, Yngwie Malmsteen, Alex Skonick, and more.
