Buy the new album, "Fingerprints", now! ººº Peter Frampton - Grammy winner for Fingerprintsººº On the heels of his first Grammy® Award, Peter Frampton will embark on an extensive series of North America tour dates. The Fingerprints Tour will be the artist’s first public performances since winning “Best Pop Instrumental Album” for his first all instrumental recording, Fingerprints (A&M/New Door Records/UME). Frampton will be performing material from Fingerprints—as well as favorites spanning his catalog—in performing arts centers and amphitheatres across North America. Frampton’s band will include Rob Arthur (keyboards, guitar and backing vocals) and John Regan (bass), as well as Audley Freed (guitar) and Noah Levy (drums). Fingerprints, Frampton’s most successful album in almost two decades, was up for two GRAMMY® Awards—“Best Pop Instrumental Album” and “Best Rock Instrumental Performance” for his cover of Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun.” “30 years ago, I got nominated for another record,” Frampton says. “I didn’t get that one as the pop star, but today I got this one as the musician.” In a career full of accolades, Frampton is particularly proud of Fingerprints: “This has been the CD I’ve been waiting to make all my life. Every track has been a wonderful challenge, pushing me to raise my own bar again and again.” With a stellar cast of players, Frampton traverses a diversity of material on Fingerprints, from American soul to Latin balladry and all-out rock tunes. To help bring his childhood musical dream to life, Frampton invited Rolling Stones Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman to play on “Cornerstones”; original Shadows members Hank Marvin and Brian Bennett to perform with him on “My Cup of Tea”; and Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready and Matt Cameron join him for a cover of Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun” and the original “Blowin’ Smoke.” Frampton’s core band on Fingerprints features longtime collaborator John Regan (bass), co-producer Gordon Kennedy (guitar and backing vocals), Arthur Stead (keyboards), and Shawn Fichter (drums). As a follow up to the release of the 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of the landmark Frampton Comes Alive in 2001, Universal Music Enterprises released the acclaimed Frampton Comes Alive II on January 30, 2007. The album is available in expanded Special Edition 2-CD set, containing 40 minutes of unreleased music. Recorded at the Fillmore in San Francisco in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the first recording on Frampton’s seminal 1976 live album, Frampton Comes Alive II will be available—for the first time ever—on DVD. |
