Hear the First Track From Robert Plant’s New Band

Robert Plant turned down a LOT of money not to do a Led Zeppelin tour, but he has at least one good reason: His new band, The Sensational Space Shifters – Justin Adams on various percussion including bendir and djembe and also guitar; John Baggott on keyboards, loops, moog bass and piano; Juldeh Camara on ritti (a single stringed fiddle); Billy Fuller on bass, drum programming and omnichord; Dave Smith on drums and Liam “Skin” Tyson on banjo and guitar – have spent the last year on the road previewing material and audiences are digging it. Plant calls the band’s forthcoming album, lullaby and…The Ceaseless Roar as ‘a celebratory record, powerful, gritty, African, Trance meets Zep’. Judging from the band’s new single ‘Rainbow’, he’s spot on with the assessment. The new album will be released on September 9th via Nonesuch Records, with a tour to follow.
