SLASH FEATURING MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS has announced the release of their fifth album, 'Flying Blind', set for worldwide launch on February 26, 2027, via Gibson Records. The 12-track record was recorded live at Studio Barbarosa in Florida, with production handled by longtime collaborator Michael "Elvis" Baskette. The album features Slash on guitar and pedal steel, Myles Kennedy on vocals, Todd Kerns on bass, Brent Fitz on drums, and Frank Sidoris on rhythm guitar.

The band confirmed that the title track, released on October 2, was written on the spot during a session with Todd and Brent, and is representative of the record's spontaneous, live-in-the-moment creation process. 'Flying Blind' also includes a cover of "Feel Like Makin' Love" from the 2025 tribute album "Can't Get Enough: A Tribute To Bad Company", which the band recorded during the same session.

The band's 'Flying Blind' world tour will begin in Latin America in April 2027, proceed to North America starting April 23, and continue through the United Kingdom and Europe. The North American leg includes two-night performances at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, as well as shows at The Beacon Theatre in New York City, the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Citizens House of Blues in Boston, and Fillmore Auditorium in Denver.

The tour follows a deliberate planning process after the band faced scheduling conflicts during a prior tour, underscoring the importance of coordination given members' commitments to other projects including GUNS N' ROSES, ALTER BRIDGE, TRIUMPH, and MAMMOTH. Baskette previously produced the band's 'World On Fire' (2014) and 'Living The Dream' (2018) albums.
