Whitesnake are streaming a video teasing the February 14 release of “Shut Up & Kiss Me”, the lead single from their forthcoming album “Flesh And Blood.”
Expected to be released in May, the band’s 13th studio set sees David Coverdale joined by guitarists Reb Beach and Joel Hoekstra, bassist Michael Devin, keyboardist Michele Luppi and drummer Tommy Aldridge.
The lineup will begin a spring US tour in Newkirk, OK on April 12.
"We are truly excited and looking forward to playing across the globe in 2019 on what will be a continued celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Whitesnake," says Coverdale. "I am so honored and grateful to have toured this incredible world we share, for over 40 years, celebrating and enjoying unforgettable moments with millions of people… All of whom have joined me on this amazing journey… I truly love the shared experience and simply love my job and always will… Over four decades of reptilian fun! Thank you!"
“Flesh & Blood” marks the follow-up to 2015’s “The Purple Album”, a project that saw Coverdale re-record classic songs from the Deep Purple Mark 3 and Mark 4 records he appeared on.
Ahead of the new album’s arrival, Whitesnake will release a series of 35th anniversary reissues of their 1984 classic, “Slide It In”, on March 8.
A 2019 remaster of the album will be available in all versions, including a 6CD/DVD Ultimate Special Edition, a 2CD Deluxe Edition featuring US and UK mixes plus bonus tracks, a single CD (US Mix), and a 2LP vinyl edition.
