Trek runs Sept-Nov
After being forced to postpone numerous tour dates over the last two years Joe Satriani is more than ready to get back to live shows and playing for his legions of fans across the world. The US leg of his worldwide Earth Tour will get things started with the tour launch on September 21st in Riverside, CA and continue through November 19th with a final date in the US to take place in Dallas, TX. Satriani will then head over to Europe for rescheduled shows in early 2023.
Satriani will have no shortage of new material to showcase for fans, playing songs live for the first time from not one, but two new albums. Satriani released his last album, Shapeshifting, at the start of the pandemic lockdown in April 2020 while The Elephants of Mars, his 19th studio album, was released on April 8th. The upcoming An Evening With shows will feature two and half hours of new music and classic fan favorites with an intermission in the middle of the set. VIP packages are available now.
In 2020 with all time constraints removed, The Elephants of Mars truly represents the album that Satriani himself hoped he could deliver with his band. “We did everything. We tried the craziest ideas. And we entertained every notion we had about turning something backwards, upside down, seeing what could happen.”
For over three decades, the guitar virtuoso has traveled the world, playing to sold out crowds as both a headliner and as founder of the all-star G3 guitar extravaganza. Satriani’s studio and live recordings have sold more than 10 million copies worldwide to date and of his many solo albums, two have gone platinum and four others went gold, with 15 Grammy nominations between them. His side project, Chickenfoot, featuring former Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar, former bassist Michael Anthony and Red Hot Chili Peppers’ drummer Chad Smith saw their debut album certified gold and their second studio album debuted at No. 9.
Satriani’s touring band is Kenny Aronoff on drums, Bryan Beller on bass and Rai Thistlethwayte on keyboards.
