SUMMARY:SatchVai Band Ft Joe Satriani & Steve Vai with Animals As Leaders
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 2024 after decades of friendship and musical intersections\, SATCHVAI brings together two of the most celebrated guitarists of all time—Joe Satriani and Steve Vai—for an unprecedented collaboration. Rounding out the powerhouse lineup are Kenny Aron off(drums)\, Marco Mendoza(bass)\, and Pete Thorn(guitar)\, creating a stellar quintet of world-class musicians. More than just a band\, SATCHVAI is a supercharged fusion of guitar-driven mastery\, chemistry\, and creative fire. \nAbout Joe Satriani \nFor 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 have gone gold\, with 15 Grammy nominations between them. He launched his annual “G4 Experience” in 2014\, bringing aspiring guitarists together for four days of workshops\, mentor sessions\, and live performances\, providing an exclusive learning platform led by him and his accomplished peers. In 2021\, he introduced the “Crystal Planet” comic series\, a five-part opus interweaving the realms of music and art. The tour documentary “Beyond the Supernova\,” directed by ZZ Satriani and currently available for streaming\, offers an intimate behind-the-scenes glimpse that intricately chronicles his life\, illuminating the profound dedication that fuels his guitar mastery. His side project\, Chickenfoot\, featuring former Van Halen front man 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 #9. Satriani released his 19th\nstudio album\, The Elephants of Mars\, in April 2022. It was a busy 2024 for Joe Satriani as he embarked on the highly anticipated G3 Reunion tour alongside the original powerhouse line-up: Satriani\, Eric Johnson\, and Steve Vai. This was followed by the Satch/Vai duo tour\, where the longtime friends not only shared the stage but also unveiled a new musical collaboration together. Rounding out the year\, Satriani joined forces with Sammy Hagar\, Michael Anthony and Jason Bonham for the Best of All Worlds tour\, which sold out arenas nationwide and was met with widespread fan and critical acclaim. \nAbout Steve Vai \nSteve Vai is a virtuoso guitarist\, composer and producer\, considered by many as one of the greatest guitarists of all time. In over 45 years in the industry\, Vai has sold over 15 million records\, received three Grammy Awards\, and recorded with music legends like Frank Zappa\, David Lee Roth\, White snake and many more. Vai has also toured extensively and recorded live projects with G3 (collaborating with different touring lineups including Joe Satriani\, John Petrucci\, Eric Johnson\, Yngwie Malmsteen\, and Steve Lukather) and Generation Axe\, a supergroup Vai formed with Zakk Wylde\, Yngwie Malmsteen\, Nuno Bettencourt and Tosin Abasi. Vai is the author of Vaideology: Basic Music Theory for Guitar Players (Hal Leonard)\, his inaugural music theory book designed to help both beginners and veteran guitar players. In the recent past\, he has travelled the globe supporting his most recent studio album Inviolate\, staging performances in 51 counties across the globe. Over the course of his 43 years touring\, he continues to visit locations for the first time. His final excursion in 2023 saw Vai perform in Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam)\, Kaohsiung (Taiwan)\, Zallak (Bahrain)\, Bangalore and Kolkata (India)\, alongside six new markets in China (Foshan\, Xi’an\, Chengdu\, Chongqing\, Nanjing and Hefei). In 2024\, BEAT (Adrian Belew\, Tony Levin\, Danny Carey\, Steve Vai) staged 65 North American appearances. The ensemble will travel to South America for additional performances in 2025. \nAbout Animals As Leaders \nAnimals As Leaders is an American instrumental progressive metal band formed in Washington\, D.C. in 2007 by virtuoso guitarist Tosin Abasi. Joined by Javier Reyes on eight-string guitars and Matt Garstka on drums\, the band has redefined the boundaries of metal and progressive music with their innovative compositions and technical mastery. Their sound seamlessly fuses metal\, jazz fusion\, classical\, and electronic elements into a style that defies traditional genre labels. \nSince their 2009 self-titled debut—an early landmark of the “djent” movement—the band has continued to push musical limits with albums like Weightless\, The Joy of Motion\, The Madness of Many\, and Parrhesia. Known for their polyrhythmic complexity\, harmonic sophistication\, and emotionally resonant songwriting\, Animals As Leaders has earned critical acclaim and inspired a devoted global following for their groundbreaking approach to instrumental metal.
