John 5 has announced a new North American solo tour set to kick off in September. The guitar virtuoso has also released the new single “A Hollywood Story,” along with an accompanying video showcasing his journey from aspiring young musician to his current gig as a member of Mötley Crüe.
The outing kicks off September 1st in Boston, and runs through an October 24th show in Novato, California, hitting such cities as Montreal, Chicago, Vancouver, and Seattle along the way.
Tickets to select concerts go on sale Friday at 10 a.m local time for the US shows and Wednesday (June 12th) at 10 a.m. local time for the Canadian gigs via Ticketmaster, with other shows available via links on John 5’s official website. Fans can also look for deals or get tickets to sold-out dates via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
The new single is an instrumental track, with the music video showing a photo montage of John 5 through the years, including as a child, his time in Rob Zombie’s band, and his new stint in Mötley Crüe, among other career highlights.
“‘A Hollywood Story’ is a look back on my career and how lucky I am to have had the experiences that I’ve had. When you’re a little kid, in your room, dreaming of your future, I never could’ve dreamt of what has happened to me in real life. I’m so appreciative and so happy. So go after your dreams whatever they may be.”
John 5’s solo dates are in addition to his shows with Mötley Crüe, who have gigs scheduled throughout the summer, as well as festival appearances set for Louder Than Life and Aftershock in the fall. Revisit our recent interview with the band here.
