Back in September, Ashcroft revealed that heâs set to release an acoustic album comprised of some of his greatest hits.
The former Verve frontman, whose fifth solo album âNatural Rebelâ arrived in 2018, was recently speaking to Radio X when George Godfrey quizzed him on what fans could expect from his next project.
âYeah, at the moment Iâm set to start on an acoustic set of some of the best tunes [âŠ] and stripping them back and laying them bare basically, so that will be my next thing. Iâm excited about that,â Ashcroft replied.
âIâll be recording, Iâm carrying on, moving on. So that will be my next record and from there when that comes out, that mythical night in my mind will take place.â
Speaking to Billboard in an interview published yesterday (June 24), John Kennedy â one of two managers Ashcroft hired last year â shone a light on the process of approaching Mick Jagger and Keith Richards for the return of the publishing rights of the âUrban Hymnsâ classic.
