JD McPherson Returns to Solo Career, Amid Ongoing Plant/Krauss Tour Stint, With the Refreshed Glam-Rock Sound of ‘Sunshine Getaway’ (Track Premiere)
JD McPherson, band leader and opener on three Robert Plant/Alison Krauss tours, is returning to his solo career with a new single and album.
At last, McPherson is concentrating on his solo career in a bigger way again this summer and fall, starting with “Sunshine Getaway,” a brand new track Variety is premiering today. “Sunshine Getaway” heralds the coming of McPherson’s fourth album, “Nite Owls.” (Fifth, if we count the original holiday collection “Socks,” since it is one of the greatest Christmas records ever made, but enough of math.) McPherson talked about the new single and previewed the new album for us from a Plant/Krauss tour date, where he sounds like he’s still having the time of his life, even as he looks forward to getting back to his day job as a self-made man at last.
