Joe Satriani Schedules New Orleans Concert

Joe Satriani will take over the Orpheum Theatre in New Orleans on Saturday, March 12. The guitar wizard will perform at the newly renovated theater as part of his retrospective Surfing to Shockwave Tour.

Satriani promises go deep into his catalog for the outing, which will feature tunes that he hasn’t played live in over two decades. The tour announcement comes just two months after the release of his latest album, Shockwave Supernova. The instrumental rock album finds Satriani working with a rhythm section of bassist Bryan Beller and drummer Marco Minneman, as well as multi-instrumentalist Mike Keneally (all of whom will join him on tour).

Tickets for Satriani’s concert at the Orpheum will go on sale Friday, September 25 at 9am.
