Hey, it's David Shankle! I'm excited to announce that I'm part of an amazing "Devil Went Down to Georgia" shred collab organized by Jeremy Durand. Over 30 incredible guitarists, including Christian Münzner, Richard Daudé, Marcel Coenen, Michael Harris, Jeremy Barnes, Milan Polak, and many more brought their A-game to create an electrifying rendition that will melt your faces off. I am proud to have been a part of this collaboration. Get ready for some of the most epic guitar solos you've ever heard, plus an amazing keyboard solo by Vitalij Kurpij too! Stay tuned for the release of "The Ultra Devil Shred Collab" later this year like you've never heard it before. Trust me you won't want to miss this! https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp01PKVOoUT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
