Legendary former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash has as of this morning confirmed an upcoming 5-date UK tour set for October. The gigs begin in Edinburgh at the city's Corn Exchange on October 7th and run through until October 15th when the guitarist and his band headline Newcastle's O2 Academy. The run of gigs also includes shows in Manchester, Birmingham and London.
This comes following the recent release of Slash's second solo album Apocalyptic Love, plus an outstanding second stage headline performance at last month's Download Festival and a one-off show at London's Hammersmith Apollo on June 6th.
Grammy-winner Slash has stormed the charts worldwide with the release of Apocalyptic Love, registering a Number 4 chart entry in the USA and Number 2 in Canada and replicating this success in both Europe and Australasia with a further 13 Top 10 chart entries.
Performing with album vocalist Myles Kennedy (vocals), Brent Fitz (drums) and Todd Kerns (bass) - collectively known as The Conspirators - Slash will deliver a set featuring tracks from latest album Apocalyptic Love, including lead single You're A Lie, as well as material from his debut solo self-titled album and a select few Guns N' Roses classics.
