Marty Friedman`s presence in the world of music, the world of guitar, and Japanese pop culture is mystifying, bizarre, and nothing short of inspiring. Friedman first gained attention with Cacophony, which released two game-changing albums and then he was recruited by Megadeth, propelling the band to its peak with his exotic guitar work, an integral part of some of the most influential metal albums of all time. His latest album, “Drama”, released in May 2024, has already received the highest praise in the press of all his 16 solo albums. The anticipation for his worldwide “Drama” tour is palpable!
