PRS Guitars will be partnering with the Vans Warped Tour presented by Journeys as an official guitar sponsor of the summer festival for the fourth year in a row.
The tour begins on June 16 in Seattle and runs until August 6, where it ends in Pomona, California.
PRS Guitars will be represented on-site and on Warped Tour social channels. Fans can view some of the short videos featuring PRS artists on the Vans Warped Tour Facebook page.
“It is great for the Vans Warped Tour to have the support of endemic music companies like PRS Guitars. For a brand like PRS to support an often over-looked scene of music is very important to our industry overall; both the Vans Warped Tour and PRS Guitars have a history of working with artists that go on to become household names,” said Kevin Lyman, founder and producer of the Vans Warped Tour.
Some PRS artists who are performing in the Vans Warped Tour include Dylan Bowman and Steve Menoian (from I Prevail), Sam Bowden (from Neck Deep), Miguel Cardona (from Sylar), and Mason Gainer (from Bad Seed Rising).
In addition, PRS media partner, Alternative Press Magazine (AP) will be hosting PRS artist signings at their tent throughout the tour, offering free swag and a weekly snapchat challenge. The tent will also have an SE Custom 24 model and the Maryland made S2 Singlecut Standard, plus a Sonzera 20 watt Combo amplifier from PRS Guitars on display.
“Vans Warped Tour has been bringing together fans, bands and brands for years and we are excited about continuing our relationship for the 2017 tour. This year, PRS artists will be rocking it on stage, signing autographs and telling fans across the globe about life on the road with Warped and PRS. The tour and relationship just keeps getting better,” said PRS public relations & event coordinator, Jeanne Nooney.
