. (The Blues) Zakiya Hooker has announced that she'll release her first album in six years. The daughter of blues legend John Lee Hooker hasn't set a launch date for In The Mood yet, but she's issued a video for the title track. It was directed by Romeo Wong Henderson.

Hooker says: "The blues is one of our last national treasures. I am happy to do my part and keep it alive and nourished. I know that's the way my daddy would have wanted it.

"His music contributions continue to impact pop culture to this day, and I know he is in the studio with me every time as I continue to keep his legend alive."

In addition, she's also announced plans to release Zakiya Hooker: Live At The International BluesFest, which was recorded in Germany. The album will feature a selection of her father's tracks along with songs from her back catalogue. Watch the new video here.
