Music News: Red Hot Chili Peppersâ Flea Drops Solo LP

Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has unveiled plans for his debut solo album.

The Under The Bridge star â who released his first single, A Plea, last month â will drop 10-track LP Honora on March 27, while heâs also confirmed live dates across North America, Europe and the UK.

Flea has played bass and trumpet on the record, while he enlisted an âelite band of modern jazz visionariesâ to perform on the tracks, alongside special vocalists like Nick Cave and Radioheadâs Thom Yorke.

Musicians making up the Honora band include producer and saxophonist Josh Johnson, drummer Deantoni Parks, guitarist Jeff Parker, and bassist Anna Butterss.

The likes of Mauro Refosco â who has worked with David Byrne and Atoms For Peace â are also involved, as well as Bright Eyesâ Nate Walcott.

Flea dropped new single Traffic Lights â which was co-written with Johnson and Yorke â on Wednesday (14.01.26).

He said of the song: âDeantoni and I played what became Traffic Lights the first day. Something about it reminded me of Atoms For Peace, so I sent it to Thom.

âJust knowing him, I thought it would be a rhythm and a sensibility that he would relate to. And I was right, he did.

âWith a gorgeous melody and the words, you know, about living in the âupside downâ and how do you make sense of things when weâre getting all this fake s*** and real s***?

âEveryone has their ways of dealing with the world. But heâs just the warmest, free flowing, jamming motherf*****.â

On May 7, Flea kicks off an intimate tour promoting the record, starting with six dates across North America.

Heâll then move onto shows in Berlin, Amsterdam, London and Paris, with tickets for all shows going on general sale at 10am local time on January 23.
