Pete Townshend Says Elton John Has Recorded A New Album With Brandi Carlile

Elton John has recorded a new album with Brandi Carlile, according to Pete Townshend.

The Who guitarist disclosed the news during a recent roundtable conversation with Clash Music.

According to Townshend, Elton has been at a loss following his farewell tour. He called Carlile to discuss working on a project. They started with no delay, and the album was completed in a few days.

“Elton is so fraught with loss at not knowing what to do next. He’s just gone over to LA to make an album with Brandi Carlile. They made an album together in two weeks. He says it’s one of the best things they’ve ever done,” Townshend told Clash Music.

John has not yet officially announced details about the upcoming collaboration between the two musicians, whom Carlile last year described as being “soulmates.”
