Here’s a sneak peek at the music and some live footage from the forthcoming debut album by United Nations of Sound, the new band put together by Richard Ashcroft!

Following the new album release, Richard Ashcroft & The United Nations Of Sound are touring Australia, playing Splendour In The Grass (sod out!) along with side shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth. Produced by hip-hop pioneer No I.D., best known for his work with Jay-Z and Common, the self-titled album was recorded in New York, Los Angeles and London and features string arrangements by the legendary Benjamin Wright, who has worked with artists as diverse as Aretha Franklin and Outkast, and who scored the strings on Michael Jackson’s Thriller. So we think we might be on to a winner here…
