Lindsey Buckingham announces new self-titled solo album

Following his split from Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham has announced that his new self-titled solo album – his first in a decade – will be released by Reprise on September 17.

Hear the first single “I Don’t Mind” below:

“‘I Don’t Mind’, like many of the songs on my new album, is about the challenges couples face in long-term relationships,” says Buckingham. “Over time, two people inevitably find the need to augment their initial dynamic with one of flexibility, an acceptance of each others’ flaws and a willingness to continually work on issues; it is the essence of a good long term relationship. This song celebrates that spirit and discipline.”

Talking about the album as a whole, he says: “I wanted to make a pop album, but I also wanted to make stops along the way with songs that resemble art more than pop. As you age, hopefully you keep getting a little more grounded in the craft of what you’re doing. For me, getting older has probably helped to reinforce the innocence and the idealism that hopefully was always there.”
