Renowned guitarist Slash is facing a heartbreaking loss as he mourns the passing of his 25-year-old stepdaughter, Lucy-Bleu Knight. The daughter of Slash’s current partner, Meegan Hodges, Lucy-Bleu was remembered by Slash as a talented artist, passionate dreamer, and a lovable soul. In a touching statement shared on Instagram, Slash announced her peaceful passing in Los Angeles on July 19, 2024.
The music community rallied around Slash and his family, offering words of support and condolences. Susan Holmes McKagan, Violet Grohl, and Flea were among the many who expressed their sympathy for the grieving family.
In a turn of events, just twelve hours before the tragic news of Lucy-Bleu’s passing, Slash had to cancel four shows on his ongoing S.E.R.P.E.N.T. blues festival tour due to unforeseen circumstances. While fans eagerly await the tour’s return in Toronto on July 28th, they are encouraged to keep the family in their thoughts during this difficult time.
Our hearts go out to Slash, Meegan Hodges, and their loved ones as they navigate this profound loss. Stay tuned for updates on the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. tour and continue sending love and support to the grieving family.
