Slash teased his new single “The River Is Rising,” recorded with Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, off their upcoming fourth album.  Slash says in the video clip teaser for the song: “This was the first time that we actually did all the guitars, bass and drums live at the same time, and kept all those tracks, and we also did the vocals live as well. So the record just sounds like the band playing the songs that we came in with, but it’s us playing in the moment. And that’s what we were going for.”   

Slash also shared that the album – recorded with Alter Bridge frontman Kennedy, and Conspirators guitarist Frank Sidoris, bassist Todd Kerns, and drummer Brent Fitz — is more of a live record because of how the band recorded it in the studio.  Said Slash: “This is pretty much a live record, from my standpoint. You’re just trying to kinda document where you are at that point in life, and do it in an authentic way.”

The album is the fourth project from Slash w/Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, since their 2018 release Living the Dream.  Slash shared: ”I think the record itself is probably the best one we’ve done so far. We’re showing no signs of slowing down.”
