Chickenfoot Music
Artist Overview
By the late 2000s, Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony had departed Van Halen, Chad Smith had been the drummer for Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Joe Satriani had built up a nearly 40-year catalogue as a solo guitar virtuoso. Hagar, Anthony, and Smith came together at Hagar's Cabo Wabo Catina club in Mexico, participating in loose, spirited jam sessions. The trio decided they wanted to work together on an album, and as the hard, blues-rock-inspired songs began to gel, they called on Satriani to round out the group. Before long, the self-titled debut, CHICKENFOOT, was released, featuring songs like "Soap On A Rope" and "Down The Drain."
