The American rock band LA Guns will perform live on May 6 in Bulgaria, in the northeastern Bulgarian town of Kavarna by the Black Sea, local media have reported.

The band received a special invitation from Kavarna municipality, the town's mayor Tsonko Tsonev was quoted as saying by Dnevnik daily. The concert is organised by LoudConcerts.

The name L.A. Guns is a name used by two American glam metal bands whose music is frequently associated with the L.A. glam metal scene which grew up around the Sunset Strip in the 1980s, in sharp contrast to what was happening a few hundred km north in San Francisco where the likes of Metallica emerged with their thrash metal mayhem.

In fact, no less than three members of the original L.A. Guns lineup, consisting of founder Tracii Guns, were involved in the formation of the original Guns N' Roses. L.A. Guns merged with fellow L.A. group Hollywood Rose, but they soon all left the group.

The future of L.A. Guns was in doubt as both Steve Riley and Phil Lewis had gone through several guitarists since Tracii Guns departed in October 2002. With a new guitarist named Stacey Blades, L.A. Guns released the cover album Rips the Covers Off. Subsequently, the band recorded and released Tales from the Strip in August 2005.

On July 5, 2009 former Beautiful Creatures bassist Kenny Kweens joined L.A. Guns to replace the departed Scott Griffin but still played with BC at the third annual Rocklahoma.

It is with this lineup that LA Guns will perform live in Kavarna in the summer of 2010.
