Slash of Guns N' Roses shared a heartbreaking news of his stepdaughter's death.
The 58-year-old iconic rock star disclosed that Lucy-Bleu, 25, had peacefully died on a Friday in Los Angeles.
Slash, whose real name is Saul Hudson, said in an Instagram post, "Lucy-Bleu was an incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer, and a charming, lovable, sweet soul."
"The family asks for privacy at this time and requests that social media speculation be kept to a minimum as they grieve and process this devastating loss."
Slash's Instagram update came just hours following the sudden cancellation of four Guns N' Roses shows on his S.E.R.P.E.N.T tour due to "unforeseen circumstances."
"Due to unforeseen circumstances, the S.E.R.P.E.N.T tour regrettably has to cancel the below performances. Refunds will be available at points of purchase."
The statement went on to say, "The S.E.R.P.E.N.T tour will resume in Toronto on July 28, 2024 at Budweiser Stage. We love our fans and apologize for any inconvenience this has caused."
The cancelled shows include:
July 22: PNC Pavilion at Riverbend, Cincinnati, OH
July 24: Interlochen Center for the Arts, Interlochen, MI
July 25: Rose Music Center, Huber Heights, OH
July 27: The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor, Windsor, ON
The tour is scheduled to pick back up in Toronto on July 28.
Lucy-Bleu's cause of death remains a mystery as of writing.
Meanwhile, Kenny Wayne Shepherd has been recently praised for the "Sweet Child o' Mine" hitmaker, saying that the British-American musician is not just a one-dimensional talent.
Speaking to Appetite for Distortion, Shepherd gushed, "He's a great dude, and he's one of those guys, he's not a one-trick pony."
He added, "He'll get up on stage with B.B. King, he'll get up on stage and jam with Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and then he'll get up there and play 'Welcome to the Jungle,' and write songs like that."
"It's like, he's a well-versed musician. Without a doubt, there's a lot of depth to what he does," the modern blues icon concluded.
