Duff McKagan has shared a cover of ‘Heroes’ by David Bowie, ahead of his ‘Lighthouse’ tour that kicks off next week.The Guns N’ Roses bassist is playing a string of shows across Europe, the UK and the US, following the release of his solo LP ‘Lighthouse’ towards the end of last year.
The tour kicks off on Monday (September 30) in Dublin and will make stops in London, Warsaw, Berlin, Milan, Paris and more in October before heading to the US the following month.Before he takes to the stage, McKagan has released a cover of Bowie’s 1977 hit. “We thought it was good idea to put out a couple of fresh songs right here on the eve of the Lighthouse tour,” he wrote on Instagram. “Choosing David Bowie’s HEROES seemed to be a natural subject matter for me (I am of course, a massive history nerd)…star-crossed lovers in the shadow of the mid-70’s cold-war era Berlin Wall.”Alongside ‘Heroes’, McKagan also shared a new song ‘True To The Death Rock N Roll Ballad’, which he says he wrote “to try and compliment” the era ‘Heroes’ was written about.
The glam-rock anthem explores themes of love, lust and time. Check out both tracks below.‘Lighthouse’ marked McKagan’s third album as a solo artist, following on from 1993’s debut ‘Believe In Me’ and 2019’s ‘Tenderness’.
