Van Morrison returns to Blue Note Records for a new studio album 'Born To Sing: No Plan B' to be released on October 1st. Morrison previously released the Grammy nominated 'What’s Wrong With This Picture?' on Blue Note in 2003.

To have such a creative music person as the head of my recording label assures me that all the effort taken to write and record this new album will be rewarded with a music based focus and marketing approach. I look forward to many recording projects with Don and Blue Note."
Don Was adds: “Over a career that spans 4 decades, Van Morrison has developed a body of work that is unparalleled in its consistent excellence.
