Alice In Chains’ Jerry Cantrell, Pearl Jam’s Dave Krusen, and Soundgarden’s Kim Thayil are headed to the Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp in LA from February 17-21, along with a Nickelback member.
At the signature Rock Camps, participants form a band where they are then mentored by their rock star counselor and rehearse songs with the special guests. Some of the rockstar mentors for this Seattle influenced camp include heavy hitters like Stephen Perkins (Jane’s Addiction, Porno for Pyros), Mike Kroeger (Nickelback), Peter Klett & Adam Kury (Candlebox), Joel Hoekstra (Whitesnake, Trans-Siberian Orchestra), Tommy Black (Scott Weiland and the Whildabouts), Britt Lightning (Vixen) and many more. Throughout the four days, campers will experience masterclasses, Q&A sessions and themed jam rooms, before it all culminates with a live performance before an all-ages crowd at the world-famous Whisky a Go Go, in Hollywood on Sunday, February 20, 2022.
A first-time mentor at Rock Camp, Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil said, “The past few years have been unusually difficult and at times truly bizarre for the nation and world in general, and for the music industry and rock bands in particular. I am super excited about the opportunity to connect and re-engage with fellow musicians and fans at the Rock ‘n Roll Fantasy Camp.”
Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy Camp was created 25 years ago to provide real people the once-in-a-lifetime experience of connecting and jamming with their musical heroes. The Camp has provided unforgettable memories, advice and feedback for attendees worldwide. Camp events span over four jam packed days where campers join a band mentored by today’s top touring musicians, and work up to final performances with the headliner rockstars at legendary venues from Abbey Road Studios in London, to Hollywood’s Whisky a Go Go, to the Atlantic resort in The Bahamas.
