Progressive supergroup Jane Getter Premonition announces December tour dates


Progressive supergroup, Jane Getter Premonition, has announced a December tour in support of the October 2015 release, On, out now on Madfish. Accompanying Jane Getter, who Guitar Player called “the fieriest fretboarding female ever to strap on a Stratocaster,” will be keyboardist Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Steven Wilson), guitarist Alex Skolnick (Testament), bassist Stu Hamm (Joe Satriani, Steve Vai) and drummer John Mader (Steve Miller, Pat Benatar). The run will kick off on December 8 in Cleveland, Ohio. A full list of confirmed dates can be seen below.
Commented Getter: “We will be playing the exciting and hard hitting music from our newly released album, On, on Madfish Music, along with a few older hits from Three and See Jane Run. Get ready for some intense jams!”

Recorded at Avatar Studios in New York, On features a stellar line up of progressive and rock musicians – keyboardist Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Steven Wilson), bass player Bryan Beller (Joe Satriani, The Aristocrats), jazz/rock drummer Chad Wackerman (Frank Zappa, Allan Holdsworth, Steven Wilson) and special guests including vocalist Corey Glover (Living Colour), jazz/metal guitarist Alex Skolnick (Testament) and British saxophonist, flautist and clarinettist Theo Travis (Steven Wilson, Robert Fripp). The album was co-produced by Jane Getter and Adam Holzman. Mixing duties were handled by Adam Holzman and Anthony Ruotolo at Spin Studios in Long Island City, N.Y.
