Watch DUFF MCKAGAN And SHOOTER JENNINGS Perform 'Chip Away' At SiriusXM Studios

June 10, 2019

Video of GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan and Shooter Jennings performing an "acoustic duo" version of the song "Chip Away" at the SiriusXM studios can be seen below. The performance was recorded for Shooter's weekly "Electric Rodeo" show on SiriusXM's Outlaw Country channel.

"Chip Away" is taken from Duff's new solo album, "Tenderness", which came out on May 31. McKagan and Jennings began recording "Tenderness" more than a year ago, working out of Station House studios, located in Echo Park, California, where they wrote and recorded in-between McKagan's tour with seminal rock band GUNS N' ROSES and the release of Jennings's eponymous album, "Shooter". "Tenderness" features Jennings and his band along with appearances by The Waters and The Suicide Horn Section (which features Duff's brother Matt McKagan on trombone),amongst others.

McKagan told Billboard about the musical direction of "Tenderness": "I've been dabbling with this kind of songwriting for the last 20 years. I'm good friends with guys like Mark Lanegan and Greg Dulli, and both of those guys have influenced me tremendously. The thing is right now we have this huge rock band going [with GUNS], so I don't feel the need to peel off a rock record right now. It is the perfect time for me to do a record of whatever the fuck I want. I mean, I could have done it at any time. I've done a bunch of cool stuff in the past like WALKING PAPERS and the NEUROTIC OUTSIDERS, but it was more like aggressive punk rock. For this one, though, I really took my time with Shooter to get the right arrangements and the right instrumentation. It didn't have to be perfect. I didn't want any part of this record to be perfect; I wanted it to be real."
