In Riga, in the concert hall “Palladium” on May 5 this year, guitar music superstar, rock guitar virtuoso Steve Vai will perform.

According to “Delphi”, the organizers of the concert from “FBI”, Steve Way is a master guitar player, composer and producer who creates the sound of music by fusing endless creativity and technical mastery.

“Steve Vai is known not only for his excellent guitar playing, but also for his unique guitars, which he changes several times during the concert. Steve Vai has amazed fans of all genres with his excellent guitar skills and musicianship for decades,” the concert organizers say in praise of the musicians.

Steve Way’s work is impossible to fit into one style. He is a musician of the highest level – an alchemist, that’s how the FBI representatives describe the guitarist. An artist who boasts over 15 million career sales, three Grammy Awards and 15 Grammy nominations. Toured the world as a solo artist, as a member of G3, and played with Frank Zappa, Alcatraz, The David Lee Roth Band and Whitesnake.

As an accomplished audio producer, Steve Way has written, produced and engineered all of his solo albums with his own independent record label, Favored Nations. Steve Way’s latest, 13th studio album, Inviolate, was released in January 2022 and he has been on tour since its release.

Steve Way says of this year’s upcoming shows: “Our last North American tour was great. Me and the band are as pumped up and ready as ever. I’m excited to finally be able to bring the Hydra guitar to Europe as I really missed it on the last European run. The response to “Inviolate” has been extremely positive and it was reflected in the attendance and the energy of the audience. We are looking forward to this tour.”

Music critics have also not skimped on excellent concert evaluations. “An electrifying, transcendent evening that no one in attendance will ever forget,” writes All Music Magazine.

“The sound was excellent, Steve Way’s guitars resonate throughout the room and each solo is a unique masterpiece,” says Rocknload Magazine.

On the other hand, Muso Muso writes: “Steve Way is able to prove that he is still one of the most technically skilled guitarists of his generation.”
