John 5 debuted a new single and new tour dates this week.
The guitarist (a.k.a. John Lowery) debuted his new single, ‘A Hollywood Story’ and the song’s companion video Tuesday. The four-minute-plus instrumental composition is a moving work that also boasts its own subtle power and bluesy leaning. It is a work that is certain to engage any rock fan. Audiences could actually argue, in listening to the song, that there is a certain Joe Satriani/Steve Vai style lean to the song even as it boasts its own unique identity.
The emotional but still upbeat mood set by the song is meant to be a positive reaction to Lowery’s musing on his life and career, according to information provided in a news release announcing the premiere of the new single and video. The story is told even more in-depth through the song’s video which features images and footage of Lowery alongside the likes of Eddie Van Halen, Rob Zombie and Rob Halford, as well as his time as a member of Marilyn Manson’s band and more.
In other news, Lowery announced new live solo tour dates and more dates alongside Motley Crue Tuesday. His solo dates are scheduled to kick off Sept. 1 in Boston, MA and to run through Oct. 24 in Novato, CA. The schedule for his upcoming “Strung Out Tour” is noted below:
