Gibson brought their Tour Bus back for the second Sonisphere festival at Knebworth on the weekend and hosted acoustic sessions for some of the bands playing - including Karnivool and Audrey Horne.
We make no secret of being huge Karnivool fans on Guitarist - their second album Sound Awake was one of our favourite releases of last year.

Meanwhile, Norwegians Audrey Horne bravely give the gallop of their song Charon an unplugged makeover - with a megaphone no less!
