Sambora
recently announced the release of a brand new album "Aftermath Of The
Lowdown", out 17 September, single "Every Road Leads Home To You" is
available now at www.richiesambora.com . The Shepherd's Bush Empire date
will be a chance for fans to see Sambora in an intimate venue, they
will be treated to tracks from his forthcoming album along with some Bon
Jovi classics.
Aftermath of the Lowdown, his third solo
album, is a departure from his previous major label releases -
Undiscovered Soul (1998) and Stranger In This Town (1991) - Sambora has
returned to his music roots, creating a highly personal album that is
both raw and powerful. Aftermath of the Lowdown is Sambora laid bare, he
makes it clear that he has a story to tell and that the songs are
deeply personal. Lyrically, he's pulling no punches: "This is the
truth, the lowdown," he says. "And after you speak that truth, there's
always an aftermath."
Sambora has spent almost three
decades as an integral part of one of the world's most beloved bands.
He's created some of the most instantly recognisable guitar sounds and
penned many of the greatest rock anthems in a generation. In 2010 -
twenty-six years after releasing their first album - his band were named
the top touring act in the world for the second time, a feat only
previously accomplished by The Grateful Dead and The Rolling Stones.
After playing to over 35 million people around the globe, Sambora
returned home and devoted himself to writing the new album.
