    Robin Trower has announced that he has completed work on a new studio album and will return to the United States for a run of major shows in 2026.

    The legendary guitarist shared the update on Facebook, writing, “I’ve just wrapped my new studio album, and with two very different Live albums out this year, I am delighted to confirm I will be gearing up for some huge US shows in 2026, with the full dates announced on Friday.”

    While Trower did not reveal a title or release date for the forthcoming record, the post confirms that fresh material is on the horizon from one of blues rock’s most enduring and influential names. The upcoming project will follow 2025’s Come And Find Me, which continued his late-career creative resurgence and showcased the veteran guitarist’s signature tone, soulful vocals, and sharp songwriting instincts.

    Trower also referenced the release of two live albums in 2026, One Moment In Time: Live In The USA and Robin Trower Live! (50th Anniversary Edition). The pair of releases spotlight different eras of his career, from recent concert performances to a commemorative edition celebrating one of the standout live recordings in his catalog.

    Best known for classics such as “Bridge of Sighs,” “Too Rolling Stoned,”and “Day of the Eagle,” Trower has long been celebrated for his expressive guitar playing, powerful vibrato, and instantly recognizable tone. His work helped define the blues rock boom of the 1970s, while his continued studio output has kept him a relevant force well into the modern era.

  • Selwyn Birchwood releases “Talking Heads” video

    Selwyn Birchwood has released a new video for “Talking Heads,” a track from his latest album Electric Swamp Funkin’ Blues.

    The album, Birchwood’s fifth release on Alligator Records, arrived March 27 and is available on CD, translucent yellow vinyl and digital platforms.

    Birchwood also produced and directed the video for “Talking Heads.” He said the song reflects his perspective on the media landscape.

    “Talking Heads is a visual representation of the type of ‘news’ that we are bombarded with every day from my viewpoint. Truth and fact have become subjective terms auctioned to the highest bidder and broadcast to the masses.”

    Electric Swamp Funkin’ Blues features 10 original songs and marks the first album Birchwood has self-produced. The release includes tracks such as “Damaged Goods,” “All Hail The Algorithm,” “Labour Of Love,” “The Struggle Is Real,” “What I’ve Been Accused Of,” “Soulmate” and “Should’ve Never Gotten Out Of Bed.”

    Birchwood said producing the album allowed him to fully shape the sound he has been building toward.

    “Producing allowed me to really take the wheel and steer the music to the exact destinations that I wanted to go. It allowed me to present these songs with the full, three-dimensional sound that I have wanted all along. This album is the full realization of the sound I have been cultivating. It tiptoes the tightrope between gritty gutbucket blues and contemporary grooves to create a soundscape that honors the roots but allows listeners to experience the music from a modern vantage point. Sharing songs with this much honesty allows us all to connect to music on a higher level…to feel a little less isolated and a little more ‘seen’ in what can be a hard life at times.”

    Known for his energetic live performances, Birchwood continues to build a reputation as one of modern blues’ standout performers.

  • The Knockaround Band – Broken Heart Seal

    The Knockaround Band return with “Broken Heart Seal”!

    A shimmering pop rock cut that blends raw alternative energy with polished emotional weight. The track opens with jangling guitars and a steady drum pulse that immediately sets a reflective yet driving mood. The writing leans into themes of heartbreak, closure, and the messy process of moving on, but never feels overly heavy-handed. The band balances vulnerability with an anthemic lift, especially in the soaring chorus that gives the song its mass appeal and big time energy.

    There’s a clear alternative edge running through the production, giving the song a slightly rough-around-the-edges charm that separates it from standard pop rock releases. The Knockaround Band continue to refine their identity here, leaning into melodic hooks while keeping their emotional core intact. “Broken Heart Seal” is both cathartic and catchy, marking another confident step forward for the group and their evolving sound continues to shine.
