With Live at the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival, Slash brings his love of the blues and his musical roots to the fore. A full-throttle live album and concert film capturing his electrifying July 17, 2024 performance at the Mission Ballroom, Colorado. Touring as part of the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival, Slash and the formidable ensemble known as Slash’s Blues Ball deliver a gritty, soulful set paying homage to the legends who shaped rock and blues.
The band features Slash on lead and rhythm guitar, joined by longtime collaborator Teddy “ZigZag” Andreadis (keyboards, harmonica, vocals), Tash Neal (rhythm guitar, vocals), Johnny Griparic (bass, backing vocals), and Michael Jerome (drums).
Intercut with candid, behind-the-scenes interviews, Slash reflects on his deep personal connection to the blues, sharing stories behind the songs and his reverence for the artists who paved the way. Slash’s Blues Ball delivers the blues like it’s meant to be – loud, live, and dangerous.
Live at the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival will become available in retail stores and online as 2CD+DVD Digipak, 2CD+Blu-ray Digipak and Heavyweight Black 3LP Gatefold. Further exclusive formats will be available in the official album store. Access the official album store HERE.
The first single Oh Well (Live) is out today. Slash takes Fleetwood Mac’s classic and transforms it into a searing live experience. Channelling Peter Green’s blues roots while unleashing his own signature firepower, Slash delivers a performance that feels both timeless and fiercely alive — the perfect single to launch the upcoming live album Live at the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival.
