Rock icon Roger Taylor has announced the new album, Outsider, alongside news of a 14 date UK solo tour scheduled for October 2021. 

 
Since QUEEN + Adam Lambert’s highly anticipated UK tour has been postponed until 2022, Taylor will instead be performing at a selection of intimate UK venues in October of this year. The rock icon has also shared details of the setlist, with many songs taken from own solo catalogue, as well as QUEEN classics. 
 
Accompanying Taylor as part of his backing band will be QUEEN + Adam Lambert’s keyboardist Spike Edney and supporting drummer Tyler Warren, plus guitarist Jason Falloon and Goldfrapp live players keyboardist Angie Pollock and bassist Charlie Jones.
 
The tour will coincide with Taylor’s forthcoming album Outsider, which is dedicated “to all the outsiders, those who feel left on the sidelines”. The album’s theme of isolation comes from a fitting place, with the QUEEN drummer recording it during the recent lockdown.
 
Outsider will be released on October 1, 2021 via Universal
