Guitar virtuoso John 5 has announced new details including the full track listing and special guests for his highly anticipated solo album, Ghost, out October 10 and produced and mixed by Barry Pointer.

A new single also drops today called “Deviant” alongside a music video featuring drummer Stephen Perkins and bassist Bryan Beller of The Aristocrats. “Deviant” follows previously released singles “Hollywood Story” and “Fiend.”

See the video for “Deviant,” directed by Michael Sarna below.

Says John 5 of the new single and upcoming album, “Ghost is perhaps my proudest achievement to date. To me, the meaning of life is doing what you love. And this is what I love. I am surrounded by ghosts in my life and I needed to honor them with this album. It is what I was meant to do. I’m so happy to have had some incredibly talented friends join me on this album. On ‘Deviant,’ Stephen Perkins’drums helped bring the track to life. And having the great Bryan Beller on bass... you can’t get much better than that.”

Fans can pre-save Ghost HERE and pre-order limited-edition vinyl variants of the album, including exclusive bundles with Ghost T-shirts HERE. Vinyl variants include green splatter, red fire splatter and opaque red options.

On September 12, John 5 will join his Mötley Crüe bandmates as they kick off their highly anticipated 10-show residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas, NV. September 12 also marks the release of From The Beginning, The Definitive Collection of Mötley Crüe Hits via BMG.
