You really can't say that instrumental rock-guitar music is in fashion right now, but that doesn't make one bit of difference to Joe Satriani. The guitar maestro's new album, 'Unstoppable Momentum,' proves that good music is timeless, no matter what trends come and go.
Joe Satriani is set to embark on a U.S. tour. On Friday (April 26), the guitar hero announced a series of dates, one of which is Houston. The dates are listed below.
Instrumental rock guitar maestro (and Chickenfoot guitarist) Joe Satriani is releasing a new album titled 'Unstoppable Momentum' on May 7, and from the sound of its first single, 'A Door Into Summer,' it's going to be a classic slice of what he does best.
Chickenfoot's Joe Satriani has shared the tracklist and cover for his 14th studio effort. 'Unstoppable Momentum' is set for release on May 7 via Epic Records.
Satriani completed writing the album after a series of dates with Chic
Now that he's had a few moments to catch his breath following Chickenfoot's latest round of dates, Joe Satriani is ready to start building momentum as a solo artist again.
The future of guitar playing arrived in stores some 25 years ago, courtesy of Joe Satriani’s epochal second album, and de facto public coming out party, 1987’s ‘Surfing with the Alien.’
For 50 years many of the world’s best rock guitarists have chosen to use Marshall amplifiers, and on Sept. 22 they’ll celebrate their love for this equipment. Joe Satriani, Zakk Wylde and members of Iron Maiden and Whitesnake are on the bill for the 50 Years of Loud concert at London’s Wembley Arena.

Confirming bassist Michael Anthony’s earlier report that work on the album was finished, Chickenfoot’s second studio set has been scheduled for a September 27 release.
The veteran supergroup — made up of Anthony, vocalist Sammy Hagar, guitarist Joe Satriani, and drummer Chad Smith — worked with producer Mike Fraser for the sessions, which produced songs such as ‘Last Temptation,’ ‘Something’s Gone Wrong,’ ‘Astral Years,’ and the lead single, ‘Bigfoot.’
It all comes full circle eventually, or so it seems for a couple of former Van Halen members, who are playing together... sort of. Sammy Hagar replaced David Lee Roth as Van Halen's singer. After their falling out, Sammy was replaced by former Extreme vocalist Gary Cherone. Sammy became good friends with original Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, and when the Red Rocker departed, eventually Anthony followed Sammy to the Waboritas, and also into Sammy's latest band Chickenfoot. Sound enough like a soap opera yet? Wait, we're not finished yet.
