Joe Satriani has confirmed that his new album Shapeshifting will be released this April.
Satch’s 18th studio album will be released on April 10 to coincide with his previously revealed Shapeshifting European tour, which will get under way in Mainz, Germany, on April 15.
The guitar virtuoso will be joined onstage by bassist Bryan Beller, drummer Kenny Aronoff and keyboardist Rai Thistlethwayte – and along with new material, they’ll also play tracks from albums including Surfing With The Alien and Flying In A Blue Dream.
Satriani has also released the first track from Shapeshifting. Nineteen Eighty is a song that harks back to the period of his first band, the Squares, and to the sounds of that time.
“I’ve always been a huge fan of Eddie Van Halen,” Satriani says. “In my mind, he just crystallised that era. The late ‘70s and early ‘80s, he kind of saved rock guitar. So that’s what I would have been doing.”
