Orange amp users triumph at Kerrang! Awards
Posted on 2 Aug 2010 10:27 to category : Band / Celebrity News
Several bands which employ Orange guitar amps were among the winners at the recent Kerrang! Awards.
Lostprophets took home the Classic Songwriter prize, with the band's guitarists Lee Glaze and Mike Lewis known for employing a variety of Orange products, such as the AD30 Combo, Thunderverb 200 and Rockerverb 50 heads.
Meanwhile, the group's bass guitar player Stuart Richardson employs the Orange OBC410 and 115, which are used with AD200 heads, reports MI-Pro.
Other Orange musical equipment users to win prizes at the ceremony included Biffy Clyro and You Me At Six, who won in the Best Single category.
Orange also sponsored one of the gongs at the Kerrang! Awards, lending its support to the Icon Award, which was given to Ronnie James Dio.
Dio died earlier this year - leading Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich to pay tribute to the former Black Sabbath star as one of his big inspirations for getting into music.
