Yngwie Malmsteen’s 40th Anniversary Tour is shredding its way into San Antonio
In the annals of guitar shredding, few come more self-assured and mercurial than Yngwie Malmsteen. Born Lars Johan Yngve Lannerbäck, the Swedish axe whiz came of age in the mid-‘80s on the heels of Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads, bringing a neo-classical flair at the time when the mainstreaming of hard rock and heavy metal kicked the door open for a new generation of guitar gods. Four-plus decades after flying out to California following an invitation from Shrapnel Records founder Mike Varney, Malmsteen is in fine fettle about hitting the road to promote his 22nd and most recent project, 2021’s Parabellum.
