Slash Announces Australia Tour Supports
Slash has announced the supports for his Australia tour this month: Rose Tattoo and I Am Giant.
In the category of ´cult bands` Rose Tattoo has been at the top of the pile for years. The band can take a punch and are full of vitality; they put every kick in the face behind them and still have the energy to carry on and deliver both live and on record. Their latest album, ‘Blood Brothers’, is a tribute to the band members Peter Wells and Ian Rilen who unfortunately recently lost their lives.
I Am Giant are certainly a band living up to their name and will be bringing their pure unadulterated rock to the Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth shows. Their new album, ‘On the Horrifying Truth’, is fuelled by a youthful idealism and has an unquenchable fire in its soul.
Recent Rock n Roll Hall of Fame inductee and one of the greatest exponents of the electric guitar, Slash, returns this August for an un-missable tour in support of his new album ‘Apocalyptic Love’.
On his last visit Slash sold out all of his Australian shows in under 10 minutes. Those shows were moved up to much larger venues and promptly sold out again.
So this time around, he will come not only armed with the most gifted rock vocalist of this generation, Mr. Myles Kennedy and the band of Conspirators, but with an arena production to deliver his fabled show; just as the rock gods intended.
