The Kerri Edelman Show presents Xander Demos

Xander Demos is a high-energy rock and metal guitar player from Pittsburgh, PA. He currently fronts his own solo band as well as playing lead guitar for Pittsburgh's favorite party rock outfit, Into The Arena and national tribute act, Sabbath Judas Sabbath. Xander's style ranges from the beautifully melodic to the jaw-droppingly insane. On August 24, 2012, Rock ‘N’ Growl Records will release his full-length debut album. Mixed by CJ Snare of Firehouse, the album is simply titled, “Guitarcadia,” and it contains 10 incredible tracks of pure guitar heaven.  Recently, Xander has been making quite the name for himself and his solo band by appearing as support for acts like Adrenaline Mob, Buckethead, UFO, Lizzy Borden, Kip Winger, Neil Zaza and Dio Disciples.  Xander has been featured on The Real Radio Show with AJ Pero of Twisted Sister, Steve Vai’s GuitarTV.com, GuitarWorld.com, Guitar Shop TV and Hair Metal Mansion, to name a few.  Nominated for Best Guitarist, 2011 Iron City Rocks Music Awards and 2013 Southern Star Network Independent Artist of the Year, Xander’s music will also appear on several releases from other artists: Ged Ryland (Ten, Tygers of Pan Tang,) Derek Buddemeyer (Down Boys Records) and Liberty ‘N’ Justice’s long awaited “Cigar Chronicles,” also featuring George Lynch (Dokken) Jeff Labar (Cinderella) and Jerry Dixon (Warrant.)  In early 2012, Xander joined James Rivera’s Sabbath Judas Sabbath, which will tour on the east coast of the US this year. On a personal note, Xander is an avid animal lover and is donating a portion of his album sales to the ASPCA. Xander is endorsed by Suhr and McNaught Guitars, who are currently in production for the first Xander Demos Signature Model guitar.  Xander is signed exclusively to Rock ‘N’ Growl Records for worldwide digital distribution.
