It was just barely two weeks ago, when a confirmed performance by Jamiroquai marked their return. Things then moved really quickly. A new album was also announced and a few days ago, a brand new song and video was released, the deep and serious “Automaton”.
The last original Jamiroquai studio album was released a good 7 years ago. The group has only released re-issues of some of their albums around their 20th anniversary in 2013 and there have been talks off a new album ever since, but good things come with good time.
“Automaton” is the lead single and title track off their upcoming album, due for release on March 31st 2017. The album will feature 12 new tracks, but the title track already reveals a slight change in sound.
