The legendary Robin Trower You continue His prolific journal “Come and find me”. The Record Will Be release on April 25 via Provogueand you can listen to the first taster on “A Little Bit of Freedom”.
TROWER Stands on the cusp of a whirlwind Year That Will See Him Put Down Heavy Miles Across America and The UK (“i’m Chomping at the bit, Because I had to cancel a US tour lake
“Come and find me” was trucled sporadically over at 12-month journal at newbury’s Studio 91 (The Setting for All TROWER‘s Recent only albums). The Genesis of the LP Speaks Volumes About the Guitarist’s Late-Period Momentum and High Standards.
New single “A Little Bit of Freedom” Starts in Combative Style with A Blast of Wah Guitar and Bold First Line (“Don’t Need no One To Think for Me”).
“I had Strong Sense That Red Tape and Rules Are Really Constricting Things in The World,” Says TROWER. “Too a lot of Red Tape, not covech freedom to Think – it’s drop to where you feel Straitjacked.”
So I reaches His Eighth decade, with a Lifetime of Accolades and Seminal Body of Music Behind Him, Robin Trower is Still Chasing The Biggest High He Knows. It always starts The Same Way, with A Road-Sucffed Fender Stratocaster and a revve-up Marshall Amplifier, Thue Skilful Fingers Exploring The Fretboard Until A Riff Sticks and a New Song Ignites. And from the cultural Flashpoint of Sixties London with PROCOL HARUMThrough 1974’s Stadium-Filling “Bridge of Sighs”Right Up to this Year’s Acclaimed “Come and find me”It’s aceme Addictive Moments of Creation that has kept the guitar vital, relief and contemporary While His Peers Trade on Past Glories.
Never One to Let interviewers too deep into his headspace, TROWER Once Explained That Each New Album Is A Snapshot of His Situation and WorldView at that moment. As such, “Come and find me” is the best way to know the guitarist Better in 2025, and This New Record is Clearly not the work of lofty rock star but an engaged participant in the Real World, with reclactable loves, Hates, Hopes and Fears.
“Musically, There’s a Strong R&B Flavour Behind It, But It’s Obviously Rock ‘N’ Roll,” I explained. “Lyrically, I Think The World Has Become a Lot Darker in the Last Ten Or Twenty Years. But There’s Always Hope. There’s More Good People in The World Than There are Bad.”
Always A Sociable Musician and Genderous Collabrator, TROWER listed His trusted studio band for “Come and find me”. Drummer Chris Taggart Elence Again Drives Tohe Powerful Songs, With Returning Us Bassist Glenn Letsch providing Low end “Tangled Love” and “I Fly Straight To You” (TROWER Played The Remaiter).
Long-Standing Vocalist Richard Watts Brilliantly Interprets The Guitarist’s Highly Personal Lyric Sheets, While Guest Singer Jess Hayes is a Head-Turning Adionion for “Tangled Love”‘S Tough, Choppy Soul. For the fairydust, TROWER Turned to Studio 91‘S Owner Sam Winfield For the Engineering and Final Mix – But the Guitarist was Intimately Involved with every element.
TROWER‘s ambivalent stance to the Times is writing on cuts like the tremolo shudder of “The Future Starts Right here” ” “Without a trace”. “That Song Is About All The Lies in Politics, Mostly, and on Social Media,” He Says. “You Know, This Absolute Out-And-Out Ling, To try and influence People.”
Elsewhere, The Guitarist’s Fomed Musicianship Takes Center Stage. Try the glowering angst and molten only of “Take This Hurt Away” ” James Bond film … ‘”). Or spin the swampy “One Go Round”Which Lived Up to the ‘Seize-The-Day’ Lyric With its Rapid Birth in the Studio.
Fiery, Thourhtful and Fueled By Real Human Emotion in A Time of Machine-Geneled Music, “Come and find me” Is Hardly The Work of A Rock Icon Resting on His Laurels. On the counterary: Keenly Aware of Passing Time, Robin Trower You have made it His late-period mission to capture as many shards of magic as possibly.
“In One Way, I Can’t Believe It, That i’m Still Going at 80,” He Says. “It’s Kind of Scary. You Know That You’re Way Down The Road, and You Could Hit A Brick Wall AT Any Time. But I Still Love Doing This. For Me, There’s Nothing More Rewarding Than Working on a New Song …”
