Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant Announces New Album 'Band Of Joy'

June 14, 2010
Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant Announces New Album 'Band Of Joy'Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant has announced details about a new solo album.

Band Of Joy’, which is the follow-up to 2007’s ‘Raising Sand’, will be released on September 13.

The record was co-produced by Plant and Nashville guitarist Buddy Miller.

“Buddy’s integral to this album, you can hear his taste all over the instrumentation,” Plant said.

“Buddy’s zone is beautiful, with a lot of reflections going back into mid-Fifties rockabilly, the singing fishermen and all the great country stuff, along with the soul and R&B from Memphis.”

Plant is due to tour the US in support of the album in July, with additional dates set to be announced shortly.
