🎸 As we come to the end of our Guitar Legends 2026 video spotlights, it's time to acknowledge the musicians who helped make the whole show possible.

Here, Tyler Reynolds and Filth Wizard - NZ are joined by Josh Hansen on guitar and Marcus Crowe on vocals, performing The Chronomancer by The Sword.

Throughout this year's sold-out three-night run, Tyler Reynolds, Hanna Ott and Joseph O'Donnell as Filth Wizard, alongside Marcus Crowe, formed the backbone of Guitar Legends, backing the other 19 guitarists across an incredible range of songs and styles.

The 19 guitarists they supported would all agree these musicians are at the top of their game and an absolute dream to be backed by. Their versatility, professionalism, and ability to make every performer shine is a huge part of what makes Guitar Legends such a special event.

Stay tuned for one final video - the grand finale featuring all 20 guitarists together on stage for an epic Guitar Legends showdown! 🤘🔥🎸
