Robin Trower will release his next album, Something’s About To Change, on March 9 next year – his 70th birthday.
A 17-date UK tour will support the launch, with Joanne Shaw Taylor in support.
Trower says of the follow-up to 2013’s acclaimed Roots And Branches: “I can’t remember ever being so happy with a finished album before.”
He’s recorded bass parts for the first time, reflecting: “As a songwriter and a performer, you use everything at your disposal to put into songs. There’s some sort of feeling of emotional release when you play a note that rings out right.”
The 12-track title will be released via Manhaton/V12 Records.
