Bill Frisell's upcoming album will be an all covers album of John Lennon songs! It will cover both solo and Beatles era tunes. Thanks to Savoy Jazz,Frisell's newest label,and their openness to releasing more new music than his previous label would allow,we get yet another Bill Frisell album in 2011. It features one of his most fearless group of collaborators. Joining Bill are Jenny Scheinman on violin,Greg Leisz on steel,Tony Scherr on bass and Kenny Wollesen on drums. As usual,Lee Townsend was the producer. Check the video below for a sneak peek at the tunes and a bit of interview with Bill. You can even get a rare look at Frisell playing a Fender Stratocaster!
