For the first time since 2008, guitar professor Joe Satriani has announced he will be returning to Australia for a run of headline shows this November.

With a career spanning almost three decades, a string of Grammy award nominations and a discography as long as your arm (including the first instrumental guitar album to break into the US Top 40), Satriani has earned himself a reputation as one of rock’s most talented guitarists. Now, off the back of his 14th studio album, Unstoppable Momentum, he will be returning to Australian stages.

Joining him on stage is Mike Keneally (Frank Zappa, Steve Vai) on keyboards, bassist Bryan Beller (Dethklok, Dweezil Zappa) and drummer Marco Minnemann (Adrian Belew, Steve Wilson).

Be there when Joe Satriani takes over the State Theatre on Thursday November 6. Tickets go on sale Friday June 27.
