Uli Jon Roth, Gary Hoey and Bumblefoot Announce Guitar Gods Tour
This summer, Yngwie Malmsteen will join Uli Jon Roth, Gary Hoey and Guns N’ Roses’ Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal for the first-ever Guitar Gods festival tour.
Malmsteen will headline the tour, which is billed an “epic celebration — six-plus hours — of the instrument for a full evening of guitar pyrotechnics.” Each show also will feature special surprise guests.
The Guitar Gods tour is created and produced by April Malmsteen, Yngwie’s wife and manager, and is presented in partnership with Guitar Center. Check out the itinerary below; more dates will be announced.
“Being able to put together this festival has been a lifelong dream of mine,” April Malmsteen said. “I believe Guitar Gods will bring tremendous value and enjoyment to not only the guitar and heavy metal enthusiast, but also to anyone who loves music.”
