New for 2024

Mark Knopfler com:

Mark’s next solo album will be released in 2024.

Ah, ok. I looked at MKNews.

Mknews Twitter also says that at the nee record will be on 2024

2024 it is then.

That was beginning to look increasingly likely for a while now.  Good to have confirmation actually.

What have we seen from MK since the last tour in 2019??? A very rare live performance of Local Hero together with Guy in 2020 and he did final works on his musical which is nice for the UK fans but who really cares about this musical?? Don’t get me wrong here but i think a lot of fans are not interested. And there is a lot off fuss about teenage cancer project but we stil do not know what it exactly is…

That is disappointing, would would have though when his last album came out in 2018 that we would not see another one for the best part of 6 years!!! Maybe he should start recording the next album now, unless he alreasy has

The MK's new album is late on schedule because GF and the engineers mixed the album with a new and undiscovered technology (until now) that will make the audiophiles buy a new console that will come with the carbon-free triple LP that will become the new official album tester for the new line of Sony headphones in 2028.

If the album comes out in January, it's not bad. It's only 4 months

A quick, "unscientific" search of the Internet suggests January is actually good month to release new music. Fingers crossed.

Exactly! Although only one album "Wag The Dog" was released in January. But let's be positive

Don't worry people, let's give Mark a break. Time flies when you have fun, he's most certainly not even aware it takes whole 6 years for a new album.

Six years, that's how long it took between BIA and OES ...

Yes and they had effectively disbanded after BIA.  Mark says at the Mandela show "this is the reason we got the band back together."  Then at Knebworth he announces they're going to do another album. 

So there's lots of good stuff in between including a massive world tour, charity shows (2 Princes Trust too), the Randy Newman sessions and touring with Clapton.  Oh yes, and a couple of soundtracks too!

AND Neck and Neck. AND Notting Hillbillies. Very productive period, and when the guitar actually meant something to him.
