Along with his duties leading Wilson's touring band, over the past year Sahanaja has been performing alongside The Zombies on the 40th anniversary tour of their 1968 masterpiece Odessey and Oracle. Most recently, he performed with Heart at the "Dreamboat Annie Live" concert, writing string arrangements, while also playing percussion, keyboards, and singing background vocals.
