CLEARWATER, Fla. — Iconic guitarist and songwriter Slash will bring his signature riffs and licks to Clearwater's The BayCare Sound for this year's S.E.R.P.E.N.T Festival.
The Les Paul-wielding musician will take the stage at 6:30 p.m. this Saturday, Aug. 10, BayCare Sound officials said in an X post.
Slash will be joined by the blues-rock duo Larkin Poe, genre-bending artist ZZ Ward and pedal steel guitar virtuoso Robert Randolph, the Ruth Eckerd Hall experience said in a news release. Ticket prices reportedly start at $40 with the highest being $126.
On top of that, officials said the first 250 fans to purchase tickets will receive a BayCare Sound Bandana.
A Rock & Roll Hall of Famer with decades of legacy in his fingers, Slash burst into the public eye as the lead guitarist of LA-based Guns N' Roses in the 1980s. The songs and riffs he contributed as a member of that band include classics such as "Sweet Child O' Mine," "Paradise City," "Welcome to the Jungle," "November Rain" and many more.
The guitarist's output has extended well beyond his time with Guns. In 2002, he and other Guns N' Roses members backed up the late Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland in the supergroup Velvet Revolver. In addition, he has released six solo albums with his most recent LP, "Orgy of The Damned," released in May of this year, according to his official website.
