Robben Ford Previews New Album 'Into The Sun'


. (The Blues) Robben Ford has launched a preview video for his upcoming album Into The Sun. The 11-song album features guest appearances by Warren Haynes, Keb' Mo', Robert Randolph and others. It's to be released via Mascot Label Group on March 30 - and the guitar icon says it's one of his best-ever works.

Ford reports: "The album is really upbeat. It has a positive, good-time feel." While his last two titles - 2014's A Day In Nashville and 2013's Bringing It Back Home - were regarded as returns to his roots, Into The Sun is more of a departure.

"The rule was to have no lid on things," says Ford. "I've worked very hard to master my craft as a musician and a songwriter - but other than relying on my strengths in those areas, I made sure there was room for new ideas and everything my collaborators brought to the music.

"When you're open to different concepts and approaches, the most beautiful things can happen." Watch the video here.
