Earlier this year, Rossdale revealed that he had already written 18 songs for the follow-up to ‘The Kingdom’. “We start [in the studio] on Monday with a producer,” he said in March. “[We’ll] rearrange — hopefully not too much — the stuff I’ve done. We choose the songs we’re gonna do. We either might use what I started, the tracks, or we might just try nixing them and doing it fresh.”
He continued: “Each song will dictate that. But we go eight days [in the studio] before we come to Australia [for tour] then we do [several days] of rehearsal. And then when we come back from Australia, we’ve got a few days off and then we go back to finish it. It should be done by May.”
Meanwhile, the band’s frontman is also set to launch a new cooking and entertainment show called E.A.T. According to Deadline, the rock star cum dinner host will “invite celebrities to his home in the Hollywood Hills where he will design, prepare and serve them a three-course meal”.
