“We’ll finally get a chance to play songs from our catalog that we’ve never played live, or in some cases, haven’t played live in more than 20 years.” Kretz says the band is looking forward to not only performing the new songs acoustically, but also pulling songs from previous albums into the setlist. Working with other musicians on this album was such a joy because it gave us a rare opportunity to hear our songs through someone else’s ears.” Robert says PERDIDA is as much a musical journey as it is an emotional one thanks the touches of flute, alto saxophone, vintage keyboards, guitarrón and Marxophone featured throughout the album. “I’ve always loved how different instruments can accentuate a song in unexpected ways. “I had to let myself be as vulnerable writing the lyrics as Dean and Robert were writing the music.” Gutt says the album’s emotional honesty focused him lyrically. “Fare Thee Well” – the first single and first track on the album – establishes the wistful tone on PERDIDA right away with its acoustic guitar introduction and opening line: “Fare thee well, so long/I hate to say goodbye to you.” “You have to live it to write it, and this record is a reflection of where we’ve been recently.” The band produced the album and recorded the majority of it earlier this year at Kretz’s Bomb Shelter Studio.ĭean says the album’s title (Spanish for “loss”) foreshadows its somber mood. PERDIDA, the band’s eighth studio album, features guitarist Dean DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo, drummer Eric Kretz and vocalist Jeff Gutt, who joined Stone Temple Pilots in 2017. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday December 6, but fans that pre-order the album beginning Monday December 2 – Thursday December 5 will be able to purchase tickets with a special code, prior to public on-sale.
At each performance, the band will not only recreate the sound of PERDIDA, but also reimagine other songs from the group’s multi-platinum catalog. The tour begins February 5 in Vancouver BC and ends February 29 in Atlantic City. Stone Temple Pilots will also launch a 14-date acoustic tour shortly before the album comes out. The first single, “ Fare Thee Well,” is available now. PERDIDA will be available on February 7 on CD and vinyl, as well as from digital outlets and streaming services. It features 10 deeply personal songs that weave introspective lyrics together with unexpected instruments to take listeners on an emotional and musical journey through letting go and starting over.
