Billy F Gibbons Announces New Solo Album ‘Hardware’

Written by Johnson Stephen on March 29, 2021

billy f gibbons new lp ‘Hardware’, the third solo album from ZZ Top frontman Billy F Gibbons, is set for release June 4^th 2021 by Concord Records.

The album’s title is a tribute to legendary recording engineer the late Joe Hardy who worked with Gibbons and ZZ Top dating back to the mid-1980s.

Sonically, the album was influenced by the high desert circumstance of its recording. Says Billy F Gibbons [pictured] ”We holed up in the desert for a few weeks in the heat of the summer of 2020 and that in itself was pretty intense. To let off steam we just ‘Let It Rock’ and that’s what ‘Hardware’ is really all about.”
