Tesla Tour Information
Often mistaken for a heavy metal or a glam metal band due to their tours in the eighties with David Lee Roth, Poison and the like, Tesla is not either and is better described as a blues-inspired hard rock band. Tesla has been in the business of making music since 1984, first getting their start in Sacramento, California under the name City Kidd. They changed their name to Tesla for marketing purposes. They chose to name themselves after Nikola Tesla, a 19th century electrical engineer and inventor, during the recording for their first album,
Mechanical Resonance (1986), because some of their song titles and lyrics related to the man.
more They went on to release seven more studio albums and become a huge success in the U.S. and U.K.
Tesla is set to kick off their most recent world tour October 1, 2008 and release their new album,
Forever More, on October 7, 2008 through their label, Tesla Electric Company Recordings. Their new single is “I Wanna Live.” Meanwhile, Tesla tickets are hard to come by and going fast!
