Paul Weller has announced a new covers album titled Find El Dorado. It features guests like Robert Plant and Noel Gallagher and takes on songs by Richie Havens, the Kinks, the Bee Gees, and more.
“These are songs I’ve carried with me for years,” Weller says. “They’ve taken on new shapes over time. And now felt like the moment to share them.” Find El Dorado also has collaborations with Hannah Peel, Declan O’Rourke, Seckou Keita, and Amelia Coburn. His renditions of the Guerrillas' “Lawdy Rolla” and Brian Protheroe’s "Pinball" are out now; listen below.
