CLUTCH TO PERFORM SELF-TITLED ALBUM IN FULL ON NEW EUROPEAN & NORTH AMERICAN TOUR IN 2025

19th November 2024 0 By Jon Deaux

Master craftsmen of groove rock, CLUTCH have been honing their sound since they first formed in 1991. It was their second record, the eponymous Clutch, which saw them start to experiment more, blending more funk flavors with their stoner and blues influences, a sign of things to come.

Now, fans will have the chance to hear that record in full, as the band announces plans for an extensive European and North American tour which will see CLUTCH play the record in sequence and in its entirety. Production, staging, and lighting will be designed especially to enhance the vibe of this ground-breaking release. The band is excited to bring their plans for this unique show to fruition!

Released by Atlantic Records back in May 1995, the self-titled album afforded CLUTCH their first mainstream exposure, and spawned a trilogy of psychedelic-tinged singles still much loved by fans today: “Big News,” “Spacegrass,” and “Escape From The Prison Planet.”

In 2025, marking its 30th anniversary, Weathermaker will release this influential stoner classic on 180-gram vinyl. Full details are yet to be revealed.

CLUTCH have been writing new music on and off around their touring commitments, preparing for what will be their fourteenth studio LP, the follow-up 2022’s rave-reviewed Sunrise On Slaughter Beach. Although CLUTCH have confirmed they are working with producer Tom Dalgety once again, little else has been revealed so far including any expected timeline.

Neil shared with Laughingmonkeymusic, “The thing is with being in a band, it’s a hive mind. It’d be one thing if you were the only person you had to answer to and you understood what kind of mood you’re in. Like, ‘I’m in a sour mood. I don’t wanna write music. Or ‘I’m in a great mood and I could bang out five songs.’ But when you’re dealing with personalities, particularly personalities that have been with each other for 30 years, you kind of have to wait for the stars to align. And we don’t wanna just put out a record for the sake of putting out a record. We wanna put out an awesome record, and if that takes longer than, let’s say, usual, then so be it.”
