Stevie Recording A New Album With Dave Stewart Producing In Nashville...
 

We have all been wondering what Stevie is up to in Nashville the past week...Unlike with the "IYD" sessions Dave has not tweeted any real details about the events going on...On Saturday (4/26) Mick attended a Jenny Boyd book signing at The Grove and our own "Hello Monster" was in attendance and this is from the transcription of what took place...

So I looks like we may be getting a new Stevie solo album before a new Mac album (how great is this!!! )...
Before everyone goes crazy about Stevie recording in Nashville remember this is where Dave goes when he record his records and when Dave records in Nashville at Blackbird his records are started and finished in 2 weeks...Another thing to keep in mind is that just because Stevie is recording in Nashville at Blackbird it doesn't mean she's making a "country"album...Now that Mick has let the proverbial cat out of the bag let's hope Dave let's us in on what's going on...

This had better not be somebody's sick idea of a joke.

I don't think "Hello Monster" is known for pulling pranks but we will see...

I doubt it. In the original thread is a link to download audio of the q&a. I'm pretty sure this is legit, although it is certainly new territory for Stevie.

If Stevie is recording a solo album could it be that she has told FM that she's not working/ touring with them 3 years in a row...I'm sure that Stevie and Lindsey only planned on touring FM for a year...

Actually Stevie has done this before ...If you remember "The Wild Heart" was recorded in 12 DAYS:nod:

Here's the Barnes and Noble audio link...http://www.mediafire.com/listen/3d08..._and_Noble.m4a

Maybe she's trying to pull a Beyoncé and release it completely unannounced.

Then again, it's weird to put out a solo album and then go tour with FM. So maybe she's getting the receding all over with and then waiting to release it till after FM has run it's course.

I think Stevie believes this is the only window of time she has to do another solo album. I think FM is asking everyone for a two to three year commitment (tour, album, tour) and Stevie said ok but give me the first half of 2014 to work on other things first. I think she has one album left on her record contract so this will let her fulfill that and then she 'll turn her focus to FM (and maybe do a few solo shows between legs of FM tours).

If Stevie puts the album out in May, she could your June and July and be back with FM to rehearse in August.

But they would have to announce it pretty soon.

Talk about overload. That seems like way too much for her. I do rememebr some talk a few months ago about her giving two songs to Lindsey. I don't know if the source was reliable, but they were able to describe the song. Maybe there's more studio stuff done than we think.

Whether its through FM or her own, I am just happy to see some new material.

I think she's recording before FM events this year and the album will be out in 2015...As I posted in the other thread it may be that Stevie has put her platform boot down again and told the band she'll tour in the fall but after that she's taking time off...Christine's return was totally unexpected and I think Mick thought he could use this to his advantage and get Stevie on board with a new record and yet another tour...I don't think there is enough time for Stevie to get a record out and book a tour this year but I think we will see the new album next year with a major tour as well...

Wow, never knew it only took 12 days... Interesting.

I'm thrilled by this news! A new Stevie solo album one year and a new Mac album the next... that hasn't happened for the past 25 years.

This is win/win. The more music, the better.

i'm happy for you guys. if there was a FM and LB solo album in the works at the same time i would be over the moon so i can completely get how you all feel.

however, if FM waits for SN, and releases their album AFTER hers, even though the only reason it's not done and out is waiting for her, they are just a bunch of wusses. :p
