VAI, MALMSTEEN, WYLDE, BETTENCOURT AND ABASI TO RELEASE “GENERATION AXE – THE GUITARS THAT DESTROYED THE WORLD: LIVE IN CHINA” TO BE RELEASED ON JUNE 28TH

In the spring of 2016, guitar heroes Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Zakk Wylde, Nuno Bettencourt and Tosin Abasi teamed up for a North American tour called Generation Axe, in which the five musicians shared a backing band and performed together in addition to playing individual sets.

A year after their successful inaugural tour, the five guitarists reconvened for an 11-city tour of Asia that included a stop in Beijing, China.
