Michael Schenker and Slash Collaborate at Wacken Open Air Festival

At the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, guitarists Michael Schenker and Slash performed together, delivering a rendition of UFO's "Mother Mary." This collaboration was anticipated, as Slash had previously contributed to the studio version of the song on Schenker's 2023 album "My Years With UFO," which celebrated Schenker's 50th anniversary with the band.

The Wacken Open Air festival, known for its diverse lineup, is taking place from July 30 to August 2, 2025, in Wacken, Germany.

The collaboration between Schenker and Slash at this prominent event underscores the unifying power of music, transcending cultural and geographical boundaries.
