Five-time Grammy award winning legend and Blues Hall of Fame Inductee Robert Cray is pleased to announce that his brand new studio album 'Nothin But Love' will be released in the UK by Provogue Records on Monday August 27th.
Produced by Kevin Shirley (Joe Bonamassa, Aerosmith, The Black Crowes), the 10-song album was written by all four Robert Cray Band members; Robert Cray (vocals/guitar), Jim Pugh (keyboards), Cray band co-founder Richard Cousins (bass) and Tony Braunagel (drums). The new album blends blues, rock, soul and jazz, with a lyric-sheet that examines the triumphs, fallouts and follies of love.
'Nothin But Love' is Cray’s 16th studio album and marks the latest milestone in a career that has produced 15 Grammy award nominations (5 wins), over 12 million record sales worldwide, thousands of sold out concerts across the globe, and his own signature line of Fender guitars. Since the release of his 1986 break-out album 'Strong Persuader', Cray has performed and recorded alongside Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bonnie Raitt and John Lee Hooker. Cray was recently inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame at the age of 57; making him the youngest living legend to receive the prestigious honour.
In addition to his London Blues Fest concert at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire on June 26th, Cray will also perform more UK concerts at Glasgow 02 ABC on 28th June, Birmingham Town Hall on 29th June, Warrington Pyramid & Parr Hall on 30th June, Holmfirth Picturedrome on 2nd July, Reading Sub89 on 3rd July and Brighton Concorde 2 on 4th July.
