HEY JOE! A SLIGHT RETURN

Joe Satriani’s first visit to Australia was 30 years ago, as a member of Mick Jagger’s band for a massive solo tour. Since then, he’s been back countless times with countless lineups on solo tours of his own (sidenote: we would absolutely kill for a Chickenfoot tour) and as part of his G3 extravaganza.

Now Joe is coming back in celebration of that 30th anniversary, and also in support of his most recent album, What Happens Next. And whereas What Happens Next is anchored by the rhythm section of Deep Purple legend Glenn Hughes on bass and Satriani’s Chickenfoot bandmate – and Red HotIt’s all emblematic of Satriani’s constant search for musical reinvention, and exploring the possibilities that happen when you swap out established elements in favour of something new.
