STEVE VAI has announced that the Inviolate World Tour will now begin with a European leg of appearances beginning in Glasgow on 4 June, 2022.

For tickets and a variety of EVO Experience VIP bundles available visit https://www.vai.com. Vai will be joined by his long-tenured ensemble members Dave Weiner (guitar / keys), Philip Bynoe (bass), and Jeremy Colson (drums). Vai shares, “A performer thrives on performing. It’s been my life for the past 49 years, with the exception of the last two years, so we are chomping at the bit to get out there and play for people. A music concert has the ability to dissolve the many challenges we face, and celebrate one of the good things in life, live music.”
Favored Nations / Mascot Label Group released his new studio titled Inviolate on 28 January (The LP will follow on March 18). Later this year, Vai will stage 52 performances in the U.S. from 28 September in El Cajon, CA through 3 December in Los Angeles, CA. The excursion will take him coast to coast.
