Orianthi, the Greek Australian guitar goddess, has been nominated for Best Rock Guitarist of 2013 by Guitar World magazine, going up against guitaring big guns such as Eric Clapton, Mark Tremonti, Jerry Cantrell and Josh Homme. She was also voted by the publication for Favourite Guitar World Cover when she appeared on their front page in April 2013.
The 28-year-old musician released her third studio album Heaven in This Hell earlier this year is competing with iconic bands and musicians for Favourite Guitar World Cover, including Led Zeppelin, The Who, Stevie Rae Vaughan, Nirvana and Black Sabbath.
Orianthi is also the first act to participate in #BeMyBand, which gives aspiring musicians the opportunity to play alongside a headlining artist in a legendary venue. Drummers, guitarists, keyboard players and bassists are asked to submit a short video of their best live performances for a chance to perform with Orianthi onstage in Los Angeles.
