Andrew Stockdale Performs with Slash in Australia

Legendary guitarist Slash is currently completing the Australian leg of his Apocalyptic Love World Tour with vocalist Myles Kennedy and backing band The Conspirators, which kicked off with a show at the Brisbane River Stage last night (August 23rd). Wolfmother frontman Andrew Stockdale appeared at the show, performing lead vocals on the song ‘By the Sword’, on which he was featured for Slash’s self-titled debut album in 2010.

Tweeting shortly after the show, now-constant frontman Myles Kennedy declared that “Andrew Stockdale killed it tonight in Brisbane. Super talented cat. It’s always a pleasure to hear him sing with the band.”

Stockdale has previously performed the song live with Slash and co. a number of times, in April 2010 in Melbourne and in Brisbane in March last year, as well as on a number of TV appearances. The singer is currently in Australia with Wolfmother, recording the band’s third studio album.
