Nick Lowe has announced his initially new album in more than a decade, titled Indoor Safari. It will be released on Sept. 13.

“The Straitjackets like all kinds of music, and are very good, open-minded musicians, apart from being very agreeable people,” Lowe mentioned in a press release. “And they also have a sort of punk rock ethos, which, unfortunately, I do too. I’ve tried to shrug it off so many times, but I just can’t get rid of it.”

Ahead of the LP’s release, Lowe has released its initially single, a song that is been a reside preferred but has in no way received an official release till now, “Went to a Party.”

Nick Lowe’s Touring Plans

Lowe is at the moment touring North American with Canadian singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith. At the finish of this month, he’ll seem at Wilco’s Solid Sound Festival in North Adams, Massachusetts.

“I’ve noticed far more younger people at the shows — a lot more women as well,” Lowe mentioned to Spin in 2023. “It used to be mainly bald old men stroking their chins to see how much rock and roll there is in it. [The young people] like the old stuff well enough, but they couldn’t care less, really, about [its release date]. They just take each song on face value. One of the songs that goes over great is ‘Trombone,’ and that’s a new song. I have this kind of jokey thing that I say to the crowd ‘We’re going to do a new song, but don’t worry, the new stuff sounds exactly like the old stuff.'”
