U2: "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For”

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the iconic album Joshua Tree, U2 is in the middle of a massive tour during which they are performing the record in full. But the Irish quartet took a brief break to stop in to Jimmy Kimmel Live and essentially ran the show. During an interview portion, the band was on the couch chatting with host Jimmy Kimmel and suddenly wheeled out a drum kit and amps to surprise the audience with a performance of the classic "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", complete with the Edge playing one of his signature Stratocaster models.


Bruno Mars: "Versace on the Floor”

The Billboard Music Awards was on fire with a preformance from Bruno Mars and his incredible band for the single "Versace on the Floor". Coming from the album 24K Magic, the appearancd featured bassist Jamareo Artis playing his American Elite Jazz Bass and guitarist Phred Brown playing his American Professional Stratocaster.


Bush: "Nurse”

Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale is back with the band's latest studio album Black and White Ranbows, and the alt-rockers got a chance to showcase the new track "Nurse" with a spot on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Watch Rossdale with a striking Stratocaster that shows enough wear to unveil a hidden sunburst finish

Pop songstress Demi Lovato contributed guest vocals to Los Angeles-based electronic duo Cheat Codes for the hit single "No Promises". Joining Lovato and Cheat Codes was bassist Tarron Crayton, who expertly wielded his American Elite Jazz Bass.
