Ringo Starr’s New Album Set to Release
Ringo Starr’s new album, titled ‘Long Long Road’, is scheduled for release on April 24, 2026. This album marks a significant moment in Starr’s career, following his previous release, ‘Look Up’, which debuted on January 10, 2025.
The first single from ‘Long Long Road’ is ‘It’s Been Too Long’, and the album features collaborations with notable artists such as Billy Strings, Sheryl Crow, and St Vincent. The album comprises 10 tracks and was co-written and produced by T Bone Burnett, who has received multiple Grammys and an Oscar for his work.
Starr, whose real name is Richard Starkey, expressed his gratitude for Burnett’s involvement, stating, “I’m blessed to have T Bone in my life right now and working with me on these records.” This collaboration is particularly noteworthy as it follows Starr’s first country album in 50 years, ‘Look Up’, which reached number one on the UK’s Official Country Chart.
In addition to his new collaborations, Starr reflected on his musical history, mentioning, “I recorded two Carl Perkins songs with The Beatles, and both T Bone and I wanted one on this record.” This connection to his past highlights the ongoing influence of classic rock on his current work.
As of now, Ringo Starr is 85 years old and continues to be a significant figure in the music industry. His previous album, ‘Look Up’, was a critical success and marked a return to the country genre after decades.
With the release of ‘Long Long Road’, fans are eager to see how Starr’s sound has evolved and what new stories he will tell through his music. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full tracklist and any additional promotional events surrounding the album’s launch.
As anticipation builds, the music community is keenly watching for further announcements and developments related to Ringo Starr’s latest project.
