Sting's First Rock/Pop Album in Over a Decade Released on 180g Vinyl LP!
Sting's 12th solo studio album, 57th & 9th, his first pop/rock project in over a decade, is a 10-song collection, produced by Martin Kierszenbaum. It represents a wide range of Stings musical and songwriting styles, from the ferocious, Road Warrior-style imagery of "Petrol Head," to the anthemic, "50,000" and the raucous, guitar-driven first single, "I Cant Stop Thinking About You."
The album was recorded with Stings long-time collaborators Dominic Miller (guitar) and Vinnie Colaiuta (drums) and includes contributions from drummer Josh Freese (Nine Inch Nails, Guns n Roses), guitarist Lyle Workman and the San Antonio-based Tex-Mex band The Last Bandoleros. Riding a wave of inspiration, 57th & 9th came together impulsively, with sessions completed in just a few weeks.
The first single "I Can't Stop Thinking About You" shows Sting at his most propulsive and danceable.
