DUTCH MICHAELS' GIG OF THE WEEK
CHICKENFOOT
Brixton Academy, London
14th January 2012

Following the release of their long awaited second album 'III', Chickenfoot, have announced a five-date UK and European tour for January 2012; their first European concerts since July 2009.

Featuring guitar hero Joe Satriani and Van Halen duo, bassist Michael Anthony and frontman Sammy Hagar, Chickenfoot drummer Chad Smith has temporarily handed his sticks over to the legendary drummer/musician Kenny Aronoff, who will join the band for these concerts.

Says Joe Satriani, "Kenny brings that same combination of super chops and wild energy to the band that we're used to; and, offstage, he's just as crazy as Chad."

Chickenfoot will perform songs from their gold-selling, eponymous debut album, alongside tracks from the critically acclaimed 'III', for the very first time outside of the United States.

The European tour kicks off at the Manchester Academy on Thursday January 12th 2012, followed by London's O2 Academy Brixton (Saturday January 14th), Paris Olympia (Monday January 16th), Tilburg 013 (Tuesday January 17th) and Dusseldorf Mitsubishi Electric Hall (Thursday January 19th).
