New Uncut issue, more info here

A couple of weeks ago former Pink Floyd guitarist DAVID GILMOUR,
aged 78 now, announced a new solo album, his fifth, baptized LUCK
AND STRANGE.
It’ll land on Earth on September 6 via Sony Music.

The 8-track album is Gilmour’s first album of new material
in nine years since his Rattle That Lock full length.

Artwork and photography by legend Anton Corbijn.

The majority of the album’s lyrics have been composed by Polly Samson,
Gilmour’s co-writer and collaborator for the past thirty years.

“It’s written from the point of view of being older; mortality is the constant.”

Along with the news came the first new track, titled Piper’s Call. A both gentle and
guitar-driven piece that brings that iconic band Pink Floyd, in the late 70s era, to mind.

Just now Gilmour revealed in a press statement that he’ll take the road to promote
the upcoming longplayer in London, Rome, LA and New York (probably more dates TBA).
