Jeff Beck Tickets - Still Bringing Up Tons Of 'emotion & Commotion'

He loves to stir up commotion, and now Jeff Beck is doing so with his aptly titled set and tour Emotion & Commotion. The veteran guitar slinger who really knows how to sling those chords recently added a few more dates to his headlining jaunt for April and June. Throughout the tour, which sees opening act in Grammy winner Joss Stone, Beck will make an appearance at Eric Clapton's Crossroad Guitar Festival and Bonnaroo Festival in June.

The outing, which jumps out April 16th in San Francisco, will hit big city arenas like Los Angeles' Nokia Theatre, Houston's Verizon Wireless Theater, St. Louis' Fox, Boston's Bank of America Pavilion and Atlanta's Chastain Park, among others. There isn't a moment to miss for the spring/summer Commotion Tour, so get <a href="http://www.stubhub.com/jeff-beck-tickets/">Jeff Beck tickets</a> now from http://www.stubhub.com.

Emotion & Commotion was recorded in Beck's home country with producers Steve Lipson and Trevor Horn at the helm. The album, which is due out in April, also included session work by collaborators Vinnie Colaiuta on drums, Jason Rebello on keys and Tal Wilkenfeld on bass. Additionally, Emotions & Commotions features a 64-piece orchestra, while two singles – "I Put a Spell on You" and "There's No Other Me" - feature Beck's opener, Joss Stone, on vocals. The set comes at a perfect time in terms of commercial exposure, as his single "A Day in the Life" recently earned Beck his fifth Grammy for Best Rock Instrumental Performance and the single is also featured on last year's Performing this Week…Live at Ronnie Scott's.

Beck is fresh off his co-headlining tour with Eric Clapton, and many critics thought that Beck outshined his Yardbirds counterpart (he replaced Clapton in the legendary rock group in '65). The Wallington, England native continues to see fame years after he debuted his sound. "For my parents, who lived through the war, music was a source of comfort to them. Life was tense and music helped them forget about their troubles," he said on his website. "I'm sure that made an impression on me." The guitarist we know today first started after a stint with London's Wimbledon Art College.

Amazingly enough, even though Beck had played guitar for years his first work with a real musical outfit was with the Yardbirds in 1965. However, just two years later Beck left the group to form his own band – the Jeff Beck Group – which released two albums together (Truth and Beck- Ola)before disbanding. Though the outfit remained unsteady for the next decade, they released two more albums, 1971's Rough and Ready and 1972's The Jeff Beck Group.

Beck's guitar expertise didn't limit him to just one genre, and miraculously enough after finishing up a rock album with the trio Tim Bogert and Carmine Appice, Beck turned to jazz-fusion. The instrumental sets demolished any stereotypes experts might have on Beck's musical intentions, as the albums Blow by Blow and Wired remain some of the best-selling instrumental pieces of all time.

Beck continued to record in the studio, returning with 1980's There and Back, 1985's Flash and 1989's Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop with Terry Bozzio and Toy Hymas. He has continued to release albums sporadically through the most recent decades, retaining his status as one of rock music's most valuable guitarists.
