Yngwie Malmsteen

May 11, 2022 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Stranahan Theater | 8 p.m.

Doors Open: 7 p.m.

Yngwie Malmsteen, world-renowned guitarist, was born in Stockholm, Sweden, on June 30, 1963. The youngest child in a household that included his mother Rigmor, sister Ann Louise, and brother Bjorn, Yngwie originally had no interest in music. However, on September 18, 1970, Yngwie saw a TV special on the death of guitar iconoclast Jimi Hendrix. Seven-year-old Yngwie watched with awe as Hendrix blasted the audience with torrents of feedback and sacrificed his guitar in flames. The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born.
