Guitarist Revisits His Instrumental Roots on Double LP!
Featuring Collaborations with Brian May & Steve Vai!
Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal is a celebrated guitarist, producer, composer, and educator with a career spanning over 30 years. Known for his groundbreaking techniques, Bumblefoot has performed with Guns N' Roses, Asia, Sons of Apollo, Whom Gods Destroy, and more. Now he is back with a brand-new instrumental album, Bumblefoot ...Returns! Thirty years after his debut solo instrumental album, Bumblefoot revisits his roots with a 14-track masterpiece that spans genres from metal to orchestral to blues.
Bumblefoot...Returns! features collaborations with iconic musicians, including Brian May, Steve Vai, Guthrie Govan, Derek Sherinian, and others, showcasing Bumblefoot's innovative guitar techniques, such as his signature fretless guitar and "thimble technique."
"It's been 30 years since releasing the debut Adventures of Bumblefoot on Shrapnel Records, and I haven't done a fully instrumental album since," says Bumblefoot. "Writing during the pandemic, these songs became a soundtrack to my life — from heavy fretless growls to bluesy tributes to legends like Lonnie Johnson. It's a reflection of the moments that shaped me."
