2022's comeback track from the Chilis has it all: a barre chord workout, cool intro licks and Hendrix-like doublestops

- Anthony Kiedis, Flea, Chad Smith and John Frusciante

Formed in 1982, the LA funk-rock foursome have sold over 120 million records, making them one of the biggest-selling bands of all time. Anthony Kiedis (vocals) and Flea (bass) are founding members, with drummer Chad Smith joining in 1988 and guitarist John Frusciante now in his third stint with the band since his return to the fold in 2019.
