Pearl Jam have released a new single, “Can’t Deny Me”, as the first preview to their first new studio album in five years.
Recorded last month in Seattle, the tune was co-produced by Pearl Jam and Brendan O'Brien and issued to the band’s Ten Club members a few days ahead of it being available on download and streaming services.
The group has confirmed that “Can’t Deny Me” will appear on the follow-up to 2013’s “Lightning Bolt”, with further details about the project and its release to be announced at a later date.
The song arrives in sync with the launch of Pearl Jam’s South American tour, which will see them play Lollapalooza festivals in Chile, Argentina and Brazil, as well as a headline concert in Rio de Janiero, Brazil.
A series of European dates will begin in June before the band fires up a brief run of select US stadiums in August.
UPDATE: Watch the live debut of "Can't Deny Me" on March 13 in Santiago, Chile here.
