Whitford-St. Holmes have announced they’ll release their first material since 1981 next month.

Aerosmith guitarist Brad Whitford and singer Derek St. Holmes launched their self-titled record in 1981 and last year confirmed they had reunited for a studio return.

Now they’ve announced that their second album together will be titled Reunion – and it’s set for launch on June 3 via Mailboat Records.

Prior to the full-length release, they’ll issue the single Shapes on May 9.

Whitford said: “Derek and I have always been friends. We started writing a bunch of stuff and we started building a band.

“The next thing we did was go in the studio and we cut nine tracks in two days.”

Further album details will be revealed in due course.

The pair previously announced they’d play 15 dates with Whitesnake this summer, and headline two shows at the Sellersville Theater on June 22 and the Tupelo Music Hall, Londonderry, on July 1.

Tickets for the shows are available via the Whitford-St. Holmes website.
