Slash the Grammy-award winning guitarist and songwriter has released his sixth solo album titled Orgy of the Damned on Gibson Records. Slash has also recently revealed the third single and a new video for “Papa Was A Rolling Stone” featuring Demi Lovato’s vocals.
The video portrays Demi Lovato, Slash, and his Blues band Johnny Griparic (bass), Teddy ‘ZigZag’ Andreadis (keyboards), Michael Jerome (drums), and Tash Neal (vocals/guitar) recording the song in the studio. It’s also fused with historical footage.
Demi Lovato says:
Slash is a legendary talent and friend I’ve known for years, so I was thrilled to collaborate with him again for his project. He brought such an amazing energy when we were in the studio and reimagining this iconic song together was effortless and fun. He had such a clear vision for the song and I’m grateful that he wanted to honor my story. I’m so proud of what we created!

Orgy of the Damned is a collection of 12 songs that take a stripped-down approach to the Blues. For the album, everything was played live in the room, with an emphasis on improvisation which resulted in a “vital and raw” sound.
Celebrating both well-known and largely undiscovered songs, for the album Slash teamed up with Producer Mike Clink and enlisted the album’s diverse guest vocalists, which include Gary Clark Jr., Billy F. Gibbons, Chris Stapleton, Dorothy, Iggy Pop, Paul Rodgers, Demi Lovato, Brian Johnson, Tash Neal, Chris Robinson, and Beth Hart.
