Legendary bluesman Tom Waits is set to make an announcement regarding the release of his first new material in seven years.

Waits‘ last solo release was 2004’s ‘Real Gone’, which was co-produced by Waits and his wife Kathleen Brennan. He has now given clues as to new music on Tomwaits.com with a post that reads: “There have been rumblings and rumors. New music from Tom Waits, you say? Come to Tomwaits.com on Tuesday August 23rd, and Mr. Waits himself will set the record straight.”

However, the singer’s special announcement may have been inadvertently rumbled by information on Amazon.
