John 5 will be teaming up with Wednesday 13 for a series of shows in 2027. This is the first time John 5 will be taking his solo band out on the road with a live singer, bringing a new dimension to his live shows. Fans will be able to hear songs spanning John’s work with Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Mötley Crüe, David Lee Roth, as well as favourites from his solo catalog.
The first confirmed performance will be at the legendary Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany at the end of July 2027 with more dates to be added – check the tour dates page for added shows to John’s 2027 diary.
Speaking about the collaboration with his long-time friend, John 5 said:
“I’ve really missed playing these songs that for years were so much a part of my life. Having such an amazing showman as Wednesday 13 join me will ensure the performances are killer. And to have the first show we announce be the Wacken festival in 2027 is truly awesome.”
Wednesday 13 shares his thoughts:
“I am absolutely thrilled to be sharing the stage with John 5. He has been such a staple in the music world and is one of the best, and most respected guitarists out there… To be able to sing some of these songs along with him is really a true honor. I really can’t wait to get out on the road next year.”
