Ringo Starr Announces New Country Album
This week, Ringo Starr announced his return to country music with a brand-new album, Look Up, produced by T Bone Burnett. Following the release of his latest single, "Time on My Hands," Starr has shared several teasers on social media, including images from the album art photoshoot.
In a true meeting of Genesis authors, the concept for the album was born at the Sunset Marquis book launch for Olivia Harrison's Came the Lightening: Twenty Poems for George, where Starr met Burnett. There, they discussed their shared love of country music and agreed to collaborate on the project.
"I thought Ringo was deserving of a serious album... Occasionally, you catch a glimpse of what somebody can mean now who had an illustrious past, and something that doesn't have to do with the charts and all that stuff, but just has to do with the timelessness of who they are." - T Bone Burnett
Featuring the talents of Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Larkin Poe, Lucius, and Alison Krauss, these artists are said to bring fresh and exciting energy to the eleven tracks, making substantial contributions to the album's overall sound.
