Joe Satriani recently announced that he will be releasing his sixteenth solo album, What Happens Next, on January 12th. The new record sees him teaming up with Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple and Black Sabbath on bass, and Red Hot Chili Peppers‘ Chad Smith on drums, and we have your first taste of the new material today. Here’s what Joe told Guitar World about the ‘Energy’ single, “The song ‘Energy’ shows the power, fun and excitement of true and spontaneous musical chemistry. Chad, Glenn and me rockin’ out, not holding back, reveling in the moment.”
