Morrissey has announced the release of his 13th solo studio album entitled ‘I Am Not A Dog On A Chain, due out on 20 March 2020.

The 11-song album is the follow-up to last year’s covers album ‘California Son’, which entered the UK charts at No.4. Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Joe Chicarelli, ‘I Am Not A Dog On A Chain’ was recorded during sessions at Studio La Fabrique in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France and Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California.

Chicarelli commented, “I have now produced four studio albums for Morrissey. This is his boldest and most adventurous album yet. He has pushed the boundaries yet again – both musically and lyrically. And once again proving that as a songwriter and singer, he is in his own category. In truth, no one can be Morrissey but… Morrissey!”

Morrissey launch the album by sharing lead single ‘Bobby, Don’t You Think They Know?’ featuring Motown icon Thelma Houston.
