Cheap Trick have released “The Summer Looks Good On You”, the lead single from their forthcoming 20th studio album.
The band co-produced the song with longtime collaborator Julian Raymond, who also worked on the band’s last three albums: 2016's "Bang, Zoom, Crazy... Hello" and 2017's "We're All Alright!" and "Christmas Christmas."
In addition to a busy touring schedule, Cheap Trick have been in the studio making progress on the project, which is expected later this year.
“We’ve been in the studio a lot,” guitarist Rick Nielsen tells Buzz magazine. “We have about 10 songs down now, so it is coming along. I will call you first when the new album is ready!”
Nielsen and Cheap Trick have just launched a late spring/early summer tour of North America with Poison.
“I’m really excited,” adds Nielsen. “It’s a lot of shows coming up. We’ve known the guys in Poison for a really long time – longer than almost anyone has. It’s always a lot of fun with them. They are great guys and it should be a great tour. And they are Cheap Trick fans, so of course, we’ve got to do something with them!”
