Status Quo udgiver deres 33. album Backbone den 6. september
Status Quo udgiver den 6. september et helt nyt studiealbum, med navnet Backbone, på ear MUSIC / Playground Music i Norden. Det er bandets 33. i rækken, og det er det første album uden guitarristen Rick Parfitt, der gik bort juleaften 2016. Albummet udkommer på CD, LP og i en box-version og indeholder 11 sange, der alle er indspillet i Francis Rossis eget studie i slut-2018/start-2019.
Om albummet siger Francis Rossi:
”This new material had to be seriously good. Quo have achieved so much and meant so much to too many people for the quality to slip now. Also, let’s face it, things have changed and we’re an easier target than ever. Losing Rick was hard to bear but, through Richie Malone, who was inspired to pick up a guitar by him, we can not only keep going but actually pick up the pace. The energy that he and Leon bring to Quo can’t be underestimated. I wasn’t sure I had another album in me but I couldn’t be more proud of Backbone, I hope the fans love it, but you can’t please everyone and I’m not going to start trying to now.”
I slutningen af måneden begiver Status Quo sig ud på en omfattende Europaturné. De kan i den forbindelse opleves i Danmark, torsdag den 18. juli på Samsø Festivals Store Scene klokken 20.00.
