February 25, 2022 Scorpions released their latest album “Rock Believer”.

The band began the tour to support the album with a Vegas residency.

We recently spoke with the band’s guitarist Matthias Jabs.

Before this the last time we spoke was in January 2020.

The band was set then to do the residency and work on a new album.

The COVID pandemic delayed those plans.

Matthias discussed the delay and how that affected the album’s recording.

We also talked the North American tour which kicks back into gear in Canada this weekend and returns to the US at the end of August.

You can see all the tour dates here.

Watch our conversation below and you can also watch the interview we did with singer Klaus Meine back in May below that.
