Josh Baines Metal Guitar Masterclass at guitarguitar Glasgow!

Metalcore fans, you’re in for a treat! Malevolence’s founder Josh Baines is set to descend upon the stages of guitarguitar for a thrilling run of metal guitar masterclasses this coming May! 

Meet the Band, Meet the Artist

Malevolence are one of the hottest bands to emerge from the British metal scene in recent years. Founded by two guitarists, Josh Baines and Konan Hall, in 2010 in Sheffield, Malevolence’s crushing riffs unite every fan of heavy music from beatdown to sludge and everything in between. 

Josh Baines has gained a massive following thanks to his time-signature defying fluid riffs & sterling techniques, which subsequently landed him a well deserved spot as Ibanez and Laney official artist. 

What’s This Event All About?
