David Gilmour returns to the studio: a new album on the way?

Less than two years after the release of “Luck and Strange“, David Gilmour already seems to be looking ahead. The British musician has in fact been spotted in the recording studio, fueling speculation about a possible new record. The idea that “Luck and Strange” shouldn't be considered the final chapter of his career had already been hinted at by Gilmour himself. In an interview given last year, the guitarist had stated his intention to make another album, surprising those who saw the 2024 record as a sort of artistic farewell.
Fans' hopes were reignited by some images shared on social media by his wife and collaborator Polly Samson. In the photos, Gilmour is seen at work in the studio. “It's a lot cooler in the studio than outside this week,” Samson wrote alongside the posts, without giving any further details about the project underway.

For now it's unclear whether the English musician is recording material for a new album or working on other endeavors. However, his comments from a year ago suggest that the prospect of a follow-up to “Luck and Strange” is anything but remote. “I hope that, within a fairly short time, I'll be immersed in work and will become obsessive, as always happens when I dedicate myself to something like this,” he had explained.
This studio activity comes as interest in the world of the former Pink Floyd members remains very much alive. Meanwhile, the “Luck and Strange” tour, which also stopped at Rome's Circo Massimo, has already left behind the concert film and live album “The Luck And Strange Concerts”, released as a document of the latest run of shows.
