Check out our Plugged In column, featuring Gift Horse, an Athens-based rock/grime quartet that will be releasing their debut album Mountain of Youth on May 4.
Another reason for us to love this band that’s not mentioned in the article — because they love us!
Guitarist Mike Stokes plays a Fender® Mustang®, and is super amped about his Reissue Blues DeVille™ 410, as you can see for yourself in this You Tube video directed and shot by a friend of his, J.J. Bower.
“That amp, I love a lot; I love all the Fender gear I have,” says Stokes of the amp and his video. “Obviously, I was being kind of goofy — I think a lot of people are concerned with how hip they look or how cool — I don’t personally really care. I just thought it would be a funny thing to do for our band, and for Fender.”
