AEROSMITH Guitarist BRAD WHITFORD Confirmed For Select Dates On 2017 Experience Hendrix Tour

Brad Whitford of Aerosmith fame is set to make a return, on select dates, to the 2017 Experience Hendrix Tour. Whitford has previously performed on the tour during 2008, 2010, 2011, and 2012.

Whitford has been a repeat performer as one of the guitarists to take part in the Experience Hendrix Tour, playing songs performed and inspired by Jimi Hendrix along with other musicians such as Joe Satriani, Sacred Steel, Jonny Lang, Eric Johnson, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Ernie Isley, Living Colour, Hubert Sumlin, Chris Layton, and bassist Billy Cox.

The 2017 Experience Hendrix Tour celebrates the musical genius of Jimi Hendrix by bringing together a diverse array of extraordinary musicians, ranging from blues legend Buddy Guy to Black Label Society and former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde, as well as Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Eric Johnson, Dweezil Zappa and many others. Billy Cox, bassist for both the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys, anchors a rhythm section that provides the foundation for exciting renditions of such signature Hendrix favorites as "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)".
