Legendary guitarist Steve Vai will return to the UK to tour this summer. Full dates and ticket details are below. 

The lightning fingered genius will start in Glasgow before heading down to London and back up to Newcastle, before calling in at Manchester, Brighton, and Bristol.

These shows mark his first UK run since 2013 when he was here in support of his latest album, The Story Of Light.

Elsewhere, Vai featured on M83's track 'Go!', which was unveiled earlier this month, and features on their new studio album, Junk.

"We asked [Vai] for the craziest space solo possible, which wasn’t hard for him,” says the accompanying press release penned by Anthony Gonzalez. “He sent us three different takes, and we blended two to make the ultimate Steve Vai solo."

Steve Vai will play at the below venues. Tickets are on sale from 9am on Friday 22 April and will be available here

1 June 2016 - GLASGOW O2 ABC
2 June 2016 - LONDON Palladium
