Beck has recorded a new album, produced with Brian "Danger Mouse" Burton, to be released this summer.
The as yet untitled album contains 10 new songs. Having met a few years ago, Beck and Danger Mouse had planned to work together at some point, finally convening last December to do a few songs.Encouraged by the results, they decided to make an entire record and over the next few months recorded extensively, with the goal of using only 10 pieces in the end.
On the live front, Beck will play his biggest hometown headline show to date September 20 at the Hollywood Bowl.
The bill will also feature special guests Spoon and MGMT and is the first headline date announced on a U.S. itinerary that so far includes the Austin
City Limits, Outside Lands and Bumbershoot festivals.
