The 2025 iteration features Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and there is a new record out called G3 Reunion Live.
Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Eric Johnson shred the blues classic “Crossroads” in this exclusive new video of the three electric guitar virtuosos from the 2024 G3 reunion tour.Directed by ZZ Satriani, the “Crossroads” video captures the energy, fun and celebratory exhilaration that those concerts delivered. Says Satch, “ZZ’s video brings together all the fun and musical magic of this epic G3 journey Eric, Steve and I have been on since 1996. Because of our shared roots, ‘Crossroads’ is a song that unites us. We are three very different players, still evolving on our instruments but still enjoying the celebration of the electric guitar with each other.”
