UNKLE to release new album
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 5 April 2017
James Lavelle has announced a new UNKLE album, ‘The Road Part 1’. The record sees Lavelle operating as the sole member of the project, though he’s kept company by plenty of collaborators on individual tracks.
“I hadn’t made a record in a long time, and the incarnation of UNKLE had changed in that now, it was me on my own”, says Lavelle. “For that reason, I wanted to make a record that I hadn’t been able to before, going back to the roots of where I came from, with a foot in modern London”.
Among the guests featured on the record are Mark Lanegan, Primal Scream’s Andrew Innes, poet Keaton Henson, The Duke Spirit’s Liela Moss, and Eska.
