BONNIE RAITT will release her first album in seven years and it’s called Slipstream.
USA Today is reporting that the renowned blues singer and guitarist has been taking a break for the past few years after losing her parents, brother and best friend.
“I took a hiatus from touring and recording to get back in touch with the other part of my life,” Raitt, 62, said in a statement.
The 12-track album features blues, rock and soul including a cover version
Bob Dylan’s ‘Million Miles’ and Loudon Wainwright III’s ‘You Can’t Fail Me Now.’
“It’s just a new batch of great songs,” said Raitt, who will tour again this year.
