Following the cancellation of several Hot Tuna dates due to Jack Casady’s wife’s illness, guitarist Jorma Kaukonen will hit the road in September for a number of solo shows. The guitarist, of Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna fame, will tour with Barry Mitterhoff on a variety of instruments and will also welcome special guests Loudon Wainwright, Peter Mulvey and Steve Kimock at select shows.

Kaukonen will also release a DVD of his 70th Birthday Bash at New York’s Beacon Theater from December 2010. The two-night run featured a host of guests with Hot Tuna as the band celebrated the guitarists birthday.
