Rick Springfield will release his first ever blues album, The Snake King, in January. “All my first bands that I played in as a kid in Australia were blues bands, trying desperately to copy as best we could the amazing music we were hearing coming out of the Chicago blues scene and the older stuff from the deep South,” Springfield said in a statement. Springfield has been playing more blues songs over the last few years on his Stripped Down tour. “The blues songs are so much fun to play, and they got such a reaction from the audience that I started thinking about including some of that vibe in my next album. And with the shape of humanity’s struggle against this amazing planet, I wanted the album to be more lyric driven, so, for better or for worse, it produced The Snake King.” The Snake King will arrive on January 26 via Frontiers Music SRL. There will be a limited-edition vinyl version of The Snake King available exclusively through Frontier Records’ website. The Snake King track list: 1. “In The Land Of The Blind” 2. “The Devil That You Know” 3. “Little Demon” 4. “Judas Tree” 5. “Jesus Was An Atheist” 6. “The Snake King” 7. “God Don’t Care” 8. “The Voodoo House” 9. “Suicide Manifesto” 10. “Blues For The Disillusioned” 11. “Santa Is An Anagram” 12. “Orpheus In The Underworld” Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com.
