Singer-songwriter Beck will be releasing an acoustic album in the summer months, with brand new material and a number of gigs around the same time.
He will play a “special acoustic set” at the Days Off Festival in Paris on July 2, followed by a gig with Bob Dylan and Wilco in Wantagh, New York on July 27. Beck will then appear at the Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island on July 28, before playing two full-band electric shows on August 2 in Boston and August 4 in Brooklyn.
His upcoming LP “can best be described as a self-contained work, one that came in the form of a burst of inspiration“, a release stated. The musician previously stated that he had been working on an LP he started in 2008, saying: “I’m trying to carve out some time from all the production work that I’m doing to finish those songs before they become relics from a lost era. It’s going on a half-decade old at this point.”
He has yet to confirm the title of the new LP, or when it is most likely to be released.
