Classic Rock
Slash releases “Flying Blind” on 26 February 2027, his fifth album with Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators and the first since “4”, from 2022. It comes out through Gibson Records, runs to twelve tracks and was produced by Michael “Elvis” Baskette at Studio Barbarosa in Florida. The title track is already out.
“It’s a really fun, kind of spontaneous rock ‘n’ roll record,” Slash says. “It’s very straightforward and down-to-earth and raw.” On the song: “A riff came to me and started developing. It came together really quickly.”
The tour opens on 2 April at the Teatro Caupolicán in Santiago de Chile and goes on to Mendoza on the 4th, Córdoba on the 6th and Buenos Aires on the 7th, then through Florianópolis, Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The European leg runs from 7 June in Munich to 26 July in Ghimbav, Romania, taking in Nova Rock in Nickelsdorf, Rock In Roma, Cardiff Castle and the Eventim Apollo in London along the way.
There is a single Spanish date: the Azkena Rock Festival in Vitoria-Gasteiz, on 17 June. There is none in Catalonia. Tickets go on general sale on 9 October at ten in the morning local time, with presales from the 7th.
