Queen + Adam Lambert to release first LIVE album!

New 21/08/2020

Queen + Adam Lambert has just announced their first ever live album and concert film since Lambert had taken over vocal duties for the band.

The band had to call off their upcoming tours plans due to the pandemic and decided to release a live album to make it up to fans.

Taped at concerts throughout their various tours of the past six years, the collection is due to be released this 2nd October.

"We hadn't really watched those clips before; we were always too busy touring" drummer Roger Taylor said. "We weren't aware of how good the band sounded. So we thought, well, maybe there's a live album of highlights of concerts that we've done over the last eight years with Adam Lambert to be made."

"As we all grapple with the challenge of creating live shows in a world dominated by a formidable viral enemy," guitarist Brian May adds, "it seemed the perfect time for us to create a collection of hand-picked live highlights from our Queen shows over the last seven years with our brother Adam Lambert."

Unfortunately, the new live album doesn't include a New Zealand show, but that's okay, you can watch them perform 'I Want to Break Free' live in Auckland earlier this year below (and maybe silently feel upset that Aussies seven inclusions).

Queen + Adam Lambert are planning to resume their Rhapsody tour next year in May with a long series of European gigs, but the band has yet to confirm if mass gatherings will be feasible at that point.
