JOE SATRIANI New Album

JOE SATRIANI To Release New Album April 1st; Tour Update, New "Club Joe" Packages Available


Guitarist JOE SATRIANI has issued the following update:

"I am happy to announce we are on schedule for a new CD release date of April 1st, '08, and the Joe Satriani 2008 European Tour! Follow this link for details on tickets and Premium Packages. I have yet to decide on a four, or, five piece band... that should keep me busy for the next few months...

While I'm at it I should come up with an album title too! At the moment, John Cuniberti and I are busy mixing the new tracks at The Plant in Sausalito, and they sound amazing! Right across the hall Journey has been recording a new record as well, so, it's been a cool environment to work in; lots of creativity in the air... And, hearing Neal Schon's guitar work drifting through the door and down the hallway has been very inspiring!

Check out the Photo section for some pics of the sessions...

That's all for now... Joe."

Meanwhile, Joe's site has been updated with the following: "We're happy to announce that for the rest of the European dates we are offering a special upgrade option for the Club Joe packages. You need to purchase your tickets separately and then can buy this upgrade to get access to the Q&A and autograph session with Joe, and much much more. Club Joe packages are limited, so get them before they sell out!"
