Today, Friday May 25th, Paul Weller celebrates his 60th birthday and to mark this momentous occasion, Paul has a special treat in store for his fans with the release of a beautiful new tune Aspects. There's also a lyric video to check out below...
Aspects is available as a free download from www.paulweller.com and will also be available to stream or download from all platforms. The string-laden, largely acoustic and Nick Drake-esque Aspects is a taster for Paul’s hotly anticipated 14th solo studio album True Meanings which will be released later this year and from the sound of this track alone, promises to be a truly special release.
There's also an Aspects lyrics video,
Paul said of Aspects; 'I don’t know if it’s indicative of the album, but it’s certainly the cornerstone to the record for me. It’s also where I got the title of the album from….'
Paul and his band have a handful of live appearances lined up for the summer including a couple of UK festivals and a rescheduled Birmingham gig, that was postponed from February due to inclement weather. Paul will also be making an appearance as a special guest at the Quincy Jones spectacular at the O2 in London on June 27th. More details on True Meanings will be revealed shortly.
