After COVID-19 put a halt on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, Elton John decided to return to the studio and make some new music. This resulted in a collaboration album that will be released on October 22nd and will see John teaming up with Lil Nas X, Nicki Minaj, Eddie Vedder, and many other music stars.

The album, titled The Lockdown Sessions, was recorded over the course of the past 18 months. It is compiled out of “one-off projects that kept cropping up” according to John’s Instagram post in which he revealed the details about the record. 

“I’ve ended with a selection of really interesting and diverse stuff that was completely different to anything I’m known for, stuff that took me out of my comfort zone into completely new territory,” wrote “The Rocketman” singer in the caption.

The Lockdown Sessions features 16 songs. Six tracks on the project were already released, including “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)” with Dua Lipa and “The Pink Phantom” with Gorillaz. Some of the more intriguing unreleased tracks include “Always Love You,” a collab with Young Thug and Nicki Minaj, “I’m Not Gonna Miss You,” a team-up with the late American guitarist Glen Campbell, and “Finish Line,” on which he collaborated with Stevie Wonder.

Elton John already released one album in 2021, presenting Regimental Sgt. Zippo in June. The five-time Grammy Award recorded the album back in 1968 but never released it. It was shelved in favor of Empty Sky, which came out a year later and served as John’s debut studio effort.
