Tony MacAlpine

Tony MacAlpine returns to live solo performance in the USA with an intimate show at the amazing Alvas Showroom. Tony’s band features Brazilian drum legend Aguiles Priester and bassist Bjorn Englen.

Tony MacAlpine is widely known as a guitar virtuoso who is just as skilled on the keys. Edge of Insanity, one of fourteen solo albums, is still considered as one of the top ten shred guitar albums of all time. Aside from his solo work, Tony has also been part of several rock supergroups including Planet X with Derek Sherinian and Virgil Donati, PSMS (Portnoy/Sheehan/MacAlpine/Sherinian), as well as the Grammy nominated CAB with bassist Bunny Brunel and drummer Dennis Chambers. MacAlpine also spent seven years playing guitar and keys in Steve Vai’s touring band.

Touring in support of his new album Concrete Gardens, MacAlpine’s band is Aquiles Priester (Primal Fear, Angra) on drums and Bjorn Englen (Dio Disciples, Yngwie Malmsteen) on bass.
