DAVID GILMOUR to release new solo album in 2015, plans to tour
29 October 2014PINK FLOYD last released a record over 20 years ago, and guitarist/vocalist DAVID GILMOUR last put on a solo album in 2006. But with the band releasing a new record, The Endless River, on November 10th, and Gilmour finishing up a solo album for next year, he’s suddenly quite prolific.
In an interview with Rolling Stone discussing the new Floyd record, Gilmour revealed that his long-in-the-works follow-up to 2006’s On An Island should be ready for release in 2015. “It’s coming along very well,” he told the magazine.
“There are some sketches that aren’t finished, and some of them will be started again. There’s a few months’ work in it yet. I’m hoping to get it out this following year.” He then hopes to go out on what he called “an old man’s tour,” something he defined as “not a 200-date sort of thing.”
He also said that a tour behind The Endless River was largely unlikely, considering much of the record features keyboardist Rick Wright, who died of cancer in 2008. “Without him, that’s kind of impossible,” said Gilmour, adding, “I’m really enjoying my life and my music. There’s no room for Pink Floyd. The thought of doing any more causes me to break out in a cold sweat.”
