Grammy® Award-winning bassist David Ellefson presents his inaugural Bass Warrior Tour, gracing select European cities, in February & March 2024, with a captivating evening of cherished classics, deep cuts, and insightful storytelling from his illustrious career. This journey will encompass his role as a co-founding member of Megadeth, his Ellefson solo material, and more.
Ellefson, with enthusiasm, expressed: “I’ve approached my career as that of a musical warrior, always accompanied by my bass guitar. I eagerly anticipate bringing these songs back to the stage, while sharing introspective and entertaining anecdotes about their creation. It’s been a wild ride of low notes and high stakes”!
Accompanying him on this tour is Italian guitarist and musical director, Andy Martongelli, a longtime friend and collaborator who has been by Ellefson’s side during his solo ventures, Basstory®, Ellefson-Soo, and Altitudes & Attitude tours across Europe.
On drums Roberto Pirami (Michael Angelo Batio, Rowan Robertson, Gus G), on vocals Titta Tani (Ehfar, ex-drummer of Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin), on rhythm guitar Walter Cianciusi (Geoff Tate band).
