Guns N’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan has unveiled a string of dates for a European tour this August and September, playing a total of 12 nights including a visit to Manchester on 1 Sept. The announcement comes along with news of his latest solo album Tenderness, released 31 May, with Duff giving fans a taste of what to expect with new song Don’t Look Behind You. The new record will be McKagan’s third solo release, produced by and featuring Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Shooter Jennings. McKagan joined Guns N’ Roses in 1985 shortly after their formation, and would remain with the group during their most successful years before resigning in 1997. In 2016, McKagan reunited with Axl & Co, along with legendary guitarist Slash, for a headline performance at Coachella; a reunion that would soon expand into a worldwide tour.
