NewsRingo Starr / Long Long Road
New studio album
Ringo Starr will release his new solo album, Long Long Road, next month.
The album is the 85-year-old’s second collaboration with producer T Bone Burnett, following last year’s Look Up, which hit No 1 on the UK Americana Albums and Country Albums charts.
Long Long Road will follow Look Up in harking back to Starr’s early love of country music, as made apparent by his vocal turn on Help’s ‘Act Naturally’ and his first solo foray into songwriting, ‘The White Album’s ‘Don’t Pass Me By’, not to mention one of his finest solo albums, 1970’s Beaucoups Of Blues.
“I’m blessed to have T Bone in my life right now and working with me on these records,” says Starr. “After we did the last record, which I love listening to, this one just sort of happened.
“I like to say sometimes I make the right moves, like you can go left or right at any point, and one of the right moves was hooking up with T Bone for Look Up, and now for this one, which I’m calling Long Long Road, because I’ve been on a long long road.”
As with Look Up, Starr has had a little help from his friends, with bluegrass singer Molly Tuttle and guitar hero Billy Strings among those returning. And there are a few new faces on board for Long Long Road, with St Vincent, Sheryl Crow and Sarah Jarosz providing back up (boogaloo to be confirmed). The first single from the album, ‘It’s Been Too Long’ (featuring Tuttle and Jarosz) is out now.
Long Long Road will be available on CD and vinyl LP is released on 24 April 2026, via UMR.
