The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards Announces Solo Album 'Crosseyed Heart'

It's been over 20 years, but The Rolling Stones' guitarist Keith Richards is going solo again. As his legendary rock band embarks on its Zip Code Tour 2015, Richards has announced the release of his third official solo album Crosseyed Heart.

Crosseyed Heart is due for release on Sept. 18 via Republic Records, according to a press release. Richards' new album is due to feature 15 new songs which blend together the artistry of reggae, rock, country and the blues. A full tracklist has yet to be unveiled, but Crosseyed Heart is due to feature songs such as "Robbed Blind," "Blues in the Morning" and "Love Overdue."

Crooner Norah Jones also appears on the new album with a "captivating" duet.

The new record will be led by the single "Trouble," which will be released later this month on Friday, July 17. "Trouble" not only features Richards on his comfortable guitar but the musician also took on vocal and bass duties for the new song.

"I had a ball making this new record and working with Steve Jordan and Waddy Wachtel again. There's nothing like walking into a studio and having absolutely no idea what you're going to come out with on the other end. If you're looking for 'Trouble,' you've come to the right place," Richards said in a statement.

Crosseyed Heart will be Richards' third solo album and his first release since 1992's Main Offender. Richards' first solo album Talk Is Cheap was released in 1988 and featured singles such as "Take It So Hard" and "You Don't Move Me."
