David Gilmour has unveiled “The Piper’s Call,” the first track from his upcoming album, Luck and Strange.
“The Piper’s Call” is one of eight new songs composed by Gilmour for the album, with lyrics penned by his wife, Poly Samson. The album was produced by Charlie Andrew, and recorded with a group of contributing musicians that included Guy Pratt and Tom Herbert on bass; Adam Betts, Steve Gadd, and Steve DiStanislao on drums; Rob Gentry and Roger Eno on keyboards; and string and choral arrangements by Will Gardner.
Samson said the the album was “written from the point of view of being older; mortality is the constant,” and the first track finds Gilmour singing about “the promise of eternal youth.” There’s also a lyric about “steer[ing] clear of the snakes,” as well as a pretty great guitar solo from the former Pink Floyd member. Take a listen below.
Luck and Strange, Gilmour’s first new album in nine years, is due out on September 6th.
