New West Coast run of dates kicks off in October.

After wrapping a recent East Coast run of dates, the Experience Hendrix tour has announced a return in October for a series of West Coast shows. The latest edition of the tour will feature Joe Satriani and Buddy Guy, as well as Taj Mahal, Dweezil Zappa, Jonny Lang and Eric Johnson. Mainstays Billy Cox, Slide Brothers and Doyle Bramhall II will also be on board, while Big Head Todd & the Monsters will join for the October 16 at Pikes Peak Center in Colorado Springs. 

"The Experience Hendrix tours are always so much fun," Satriani told Billboard. "The camaraderie between all the musicians on the show is magical. I'm so excited to play some deep Hendrix tracks in a power-trio setting with Doug Pinnick and Kenny Aronoff!"

"[Jimi] moved the blues—the language of the music—into the future," Mahal added.
