Artist News Releases
Red Hot Chili Peppers release first single from second album of 2022
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 19 August 2022
The Red Hot Chili Peppers will release their second album of the year, ‘Return Of The Dream Canteen’, this autumn. They say that the new record represents “everything we are and ever dreamed of being”. Giving a hint of what that might mean, they have released its first single, ‘Tippa My Tongue’.
“We went in search of ourselves as the band that we have somehow always been”, they say in a statement. “Just for the fun of it we jammed and learned some old songs. Before long we started the mysterious process of building new songs. A beautiful bit of chemistry meddling that had befriended us hundreds of times along the way. Once we found that slip stream of sound and vision, we just kept mining”.
“With time turned into an elastic waist band of oversized underwear, we had no reason to stop writing and rocking”, they continue. “It felt like a dream. When all was said and done, our moody love for each other and the magic of music had gifted us with more songs than we knew what to do with. Well we figured it out. Two double albums released back to back. The second of which is easily as meaningful as the first or should that be reversed?”
“’Return Of The Dream Canteen’ is everything we are and ever dreamed of being”, they conclude. “It’s packed. Made with the blood of our hearts”.
The band released their last album, ‘Unlimited Love’, in April. ‘Return Of The Dream Canteen’ is set to follow on 14 Oct. Watch the video for ‘Tippa My Tongue’ here:
