Despite being busy with their main projects, Slash Ft. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators will unite again to release their third album next fall and plan to tour extensively. The band has just entered the studio to record with producer Elvis Baskette. Slash has spent the last few years on the Not In This Lifetime tour with Guns N Roses, while Alter Bridge has been touring, dropped a new album, as did Myles Kennedy, with his just-released Year Of The Tiger solo debut.
Slash commented:
“I’m excited about the new stuff we put together for this next record; it’s got some cool songs and it’s got a great live feel. I’ve been working with Myles, Brent and Todd for about eight years now. It’s been an amazing ride so far; as a band we continue to get better which is great. With the addition of Frank since the ‘World On Fire’ tour, I feel we have hit a great, creative stride which I definitely think shows on this next record.”
“GUNS N’ ROSES will be headlining European festivals this summer, it’s going to be a 110 percent performance and a huge blast. I love doing European fests and this is the first time we’ve done any proper festivals over there on the ‘Not In This Lifetime’ tour. It’s indescribable to explain these shows. I’m looking over and seeing Axl, Duff and Dizzy whom I’ve known forever, but it also feels like an entirely new experience with Richard, Frank and Melissa. It’s like being in a new band, except there’s a chemistry that is established from days of old, so it’s a natural thing that’s always been there.”
