Every Wednesday starting February 23, former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Gilby Clarke will perform live at The Bourbon Room in Hollywood, California. Joining Gilby in his band, dubbed GILBY CLARKE & THE KEEF RICHARDS, will be bassist Sean McNabb (GREAT WHITE, DOKKEN), drummer Jimmy D'Anda (BULLETBOYS, LYNCH MOB) and keyboardist Teddy "Zig Zag" Andreadis (GUNS N' ROSES, ALICE COOPER). Drummer Kenny Aronoff (JOHN MELLENCAMP, JOHN FOGERTY, CHICKENFOOT) will join GILBY CLARKE & THE KEEF RICHARDS on March 9 and March 16. Clarke replaced Izzy Stradlin in the GUNS lineup in 1991, during the "Use Your Illusion" tour, and stayed with the band for three years. After exiting GUNS N' ROSES, Clarke continued as a producer and solo artist, while also playing in SLASH'S SNAKEPIT, ROCK STAR SUPERNOVA, HEART and other acts. Clarke, along with fellow GUNS N' ROSES members Slash, Duff McKagan, Steven Adler and Matt Sorum, played three "Appetite For Destruction" songs with Myles Kennedy at the band's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony in April 2012 in Cleveland, Ohio, although Gilby himself was not inducted as part of the group. Kennedy, who handles lead vocals in Slash's solo band and ALTER BRIDGE, sang "Mr. Brownstone", "Sweet Child O' Mine" and "Paradise City", with "Use Your Illusion"-era member Sorum sitting behind the drum kit on "Brownstone" and the man he replaced in GN'R, Adler, pounding the skins for the other two songs. Clarke's new solo album, "The Gospel Truth", was released in April 2021 via Golden Robot Records. Gilby released his solo debut, "Pawnshop Guitars", in 1994.
