The opportunity to discover these two incredible guitarists together on stage! “ The Satchvai band tour is happening! I’m so excited to share the stage with Steve again. Every time we play together, it takes me back to when we were teenagers, eating and breathing music every second of the day, pushing, challenging, and helping each other to be the best we can be. I guess we never stopped! » said Joe Satriani in a message visible on the official website.
« Filming with Joe is always a pleasure and an honor. He's my favorite guitarist to play with, and now we have another opportunity to take the stage. I feel like we're both at the top of our game, and the show will be a powerful celebration of the coolest instrument in the world, the electric guitar! » for his part confided Steve Vai.
We recall that Joe Satriani is considered an incredible guitarist. Just look at the names of his students at the school in Berkeley, California: Steve Vai, Kirk Hammett and Larry Lalonde.
It was in 1986 that Joe Satriani decides to embark on a musical career. And it won't take long for him to make a name for himself. With the release of “Surfing With The Alien“, in 1987, the musician immediately succeeded in attracting the attention and arousing the curiosity of rock fans thanks to several flagship titles. From then on, Joe Satriani would never cease to cause a sensation as in 1989 with “Flying In A Blue Dream” or again in 1992 with “The Extremist“.
For his part, Steve Vai is considered a guitar hero! At the head of around ten studio albums, Steve Vai was notably part of Frank Zappa's famous group, before joining Alcatrazz where he replaced guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen for an album and a tour.
In 2025, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai therefore unite their talent as guitarists to form the Satchvai Band and set off on European roads, in order to offer delicious musical moments to their audience. In Paris, head to Congress Center on June 22, 2025.
