Biography

Slash (the real name Saul Hudson) is a British-American guitarist. He was born on July 23, 1965 in Stoke-on-Trent. His parents were working in the field of show-business: Saul’s father created album covers and his mother was a costume designer. When Slash was 11 years old, his family moved to Los-Angeles. Soon after that his parents divorced and since that moment he lived with his mother. School teacher of music produced a great impression on Slash. As the musician noted: “The teacher had the Les Paul, and he always played Cream and Led Zeppelin. When I heard that, I thought that it was the thing I wanted to do”. Slash and his friend Steven Adler aimed to create a band. Steven declared himself the lead guitarist, so Saul decided to be the bassist. He came with a request to his grandmother, and she gave him an old one-string guitar. Nevertheless, it did not stop Slash on his way to the aim. Aged 14, he listened to Aerosmith’s album Rocks and understood that something had changed in his life. Since that moment Slash decided to devote himself to music.
