You might remember Chickenfoot from a post on this blog a few months ago. Now, there is more news from this supergroup. Last week, Joe Satriani sent out this message to his mailing list.
Chickenfoot. Chickenfoot? Chickenfoot! Yes, the band Chickenfoot featuring Sammy Hagar, Chad Smith, Michael Anthony and yours truly, is about to release its first CD called, "Chickenfoot", of course. It was one year ago this last February that we first got together in Vegas for a little jam in front of a few thousand people, and decided to make a go of it. I'm glad we did.visit chickenfoot.us for more info
Thinking back, it seemed kind of crazy to join a new band just as I was about to release "Professor Satchifunkilus..." and launch its world tour. All the hard work paid off though. Our "Live in Paris" DVD from that tour will be released this year in all its psychedelic glory, and the "Chickenfoot" CD should be out in about a month, or, two. As a new band, Chickenfoot will do a few CD release party gigs in May to kick things off, then it's off to Europe for a few weeks of Summer festivals. We are looking towards a headlining tour in the USA this fall. I'm so excited about bringing our new band and music to the stage. The energy this unit puts out is incredible, absolutely amazing. Chickenfoot Rocks!

I can't wait for this album. The nice thing about this is a mention of "their first CD", which means there are further plans with such a band, in addition to the tour, of course.
