Joe Satriani

Jay Jay welcomes back 2 very special guests to the podcast - guitar legends Joe Satriani & Steve Vai! This episode is a must listen for all guitar heads. Jay Jay discusses the 2026 Twisted Sister Reunion, as Joe and Steve get into their current collaboration. They dig into why their interplay isn’t mystical so much as decades of a deep musical conversation that they began as kids. Their friendship and close listening to one another, to the more technical - tone choices, and practical staging (mono vs stereo rigs, crew wizardry), etc. They talk gear, dynamics, and the telepathy that you gain after years of playing everywhere from yards & garages, to festival stages & concert halls. Jay, Joe & Steve discuss “commercial” vs “authentic” pursuits — exploring whether chasing radio hits matters, and how you can’t fake what people will like, but only write what you feel. They talk about how playing with humans matters more than all else in the current digital landscape. Joe and Steve differentiate the ways in which touring with separate bands differs from merging into one tight unit, how arrangements are made on the fly, and the inherent value of close collaboration in fast moving environments. They wrap their conversation talking about how chasing trends can ultimately be a trap, and how commercial success should be a byproduct, rather than at the forefront of one's artistry, getting into the importance of staying true and doing the work. Don't miss this insightful conversation from 3 guitar legends - only on The Jay Jay French Connection: Beyond the Music! Produced & Edited by Matthew Mallinger

Ep 53: The iconic guitarist and composer talks SatchVai Band, his earliest inspirations, and his plans for the future Hello, music lovers! Welcome to Why Music Matters, a podcast where we examine the power and influence that music can wield in our lives. I’m your host, musician and music journalist Jeff Miers. Today’s guest is one of the most critically lauded and commercially successful rock guitarists of his generation. Since the 1987 release of his second album, the evergreen Surfing with the Alien, Joe Satriani has been nominated for 15 Grammy Awards and sold more than 10 million albums. And he did all of this with a body of work that is almost exclusively instrumental. Taking a page from the book of the late Jeff Beck, Satriani blended a penchant for memorable melodies, intense and ambitious arrangements, and considerable virtuosity, in the process, becoming the best-selling instrumental rock guitarist of all time. For his latest venture, Satriani has teamed with one of his oldest friends and collaborators - another legend, who also happens to be a former student of Satriani’s - the great Steve Vai, to form The SatchVai Band. (For our listeners here in Buffalo, NY, you’ll have the opportunity to catch this powerhouse in action at Kleinhans Music Hall on Tuesday, May 12.) During our chat, Joe - who also happens to be one of the nicest guys I’ve ever encountered in the music business - reflected on his earliest musical inspirations, the importance of jazz in the development of his musical imagination, why the SatchVai Band puts a perma-grin on his face, and his passion for the soon-to-be-released first studio album from that band.

Legendary shredder Joe Satriani was the first ever guest on Wong Notes , so it makes sense that he’s the first returning sit-in with Cory Wong. Satch is busy as ever, juggling enough projects to make a normal guitarist’s head spin. But Satriani’s not a normal guitarist. He teases a new song with Sammy Hagar, plus delves into the intricacies of Eddie Van Halen’s playing and why he can’t quite replicate it—every guitarist has their strengths and deficiencies, claims Satch. And believe it or not, Satriani didn’t figure standing in front of huge crowds to be one of his strengths when he was younger. Fate figured otherwise. Satriani goes deep on one of his favorite tools, the Sustainiac pickup, and talks about how it’s defined his playing—just like his trademark sunglasses, even in dark rooms. (“Stupid idea, right?” he jokes.)And young guitarists, listen up: Satriani has some wise words on the importance of rigorous practice while you’re budding on the instrument. The big takeaway? Learn.

Satriani has prepared one of a kind pieces for the exhibit including original canvases and hand painted guitars. “Music and art are my passions. I like making the invisible, visible, and the unimaginable, real. The image on a canvas, or, an electric guitar for that matter, can make you feel something unexpected and revealing, something that is the beginning of a greater personal insight. Challenging the straight line and the concepts of what belongs with what excites me. I want to experience new color combinations to make me see beyond the prevailing reality. There’s a balance between seriousness and humor that can imbue in a painting a kind of resilience and longevity, making it forever contemporary. When I paint and play my guitar, I strive to be in a state of exhilaration and communicate that feeling to my fans.” says Joe Satriani. “The Elephants of Mars” Album Artwork In parallel with that, Joe will be releasing new music in 2022 – the new album “The Elephants of Mars” was recently announced, with a release date of April 08th.
