Gary Clark Jr. revealed new album details

Let me introduce you one awesome artist that I recently discovered. Gary Clark Jr. is an american singer and guitarist who's music is mainly influenced by rock and roll and blues music.

He has already released some EP's and LP's in the past, but his major label debut is yet to come. He recently revealed details about this album.

Record entitled Blak and Blu will contain 13 tracks and will be out on October 22 via Warner Bros. It will contain 12 own compositions and one cover, which is actually cover of two songs - Little Johnny Taylor’s "If You Love Me Like You Say" and Jimi Hendrix’s "Third Stone From The Sun". The album was produced by Mike Elizondo (Mastodon, Fiona Apple, Dr. Dre) and Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance).

First single of the record is track named "Ain’t Messin ‘Round". And I gotta say that it is awesome track that makes me very excited about this record. Listen to this song below.
