After releasing several critically acclaimed albums over 10 years, in 1996, Satriani

annual event. By 2000, Satriani released the electronic album 'Engines of Creation'
which earned him a Grammy nomination. Satriani went on to release his most recent
live album 'Satriani Live!'. A new studio album is expected to be released in 2008
to coincide with the UK tour.
