English folk hero Billy Bragg will be releasing his new album Mr. Love and Justice in March. The album will come out in England on March 3rd via Cooking Vinyl in the UK and April 8th via Anti- in the US. The release will be accompanied by a March 4th show at the London Roundhouse in Camden Town, London.

The 12 track album was produced by Grant Showbiz and features Bragg’s celebrated backing band, the Blokes. The Blokes are joined by Robert Whyatt on a track, a meeting that came about quite fortuitously.

The collaboration came about when Bragg, in search of fresh rhubarb for a crumble, was in nearby Louth where he met Wyatt who lives in the town.
“I hadn’t seen him since Red Wedge (the 1986 Labour Party youth vote initiative). He found me some rhubarb and then came along to the recording session and sang beautiful vocals to the chorus of ‘I Keep Faith’ – it was like angels singing!”

The cover art and tracklisting is available below.
