Gilbert O’Sullivan, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of his generation will return in 2024 with “Songbook”, following his previous successful studio album “Driven”.

Songbook”, a newly recorded 12 track album including a classic collection of key songs from Gilbert’s expansive catalogue over the last 55 years. Recorded at Lafayette, King’s Cross in late 2023. The album features long time friend, Bill Shanley on guitar and backing vocals.

The album features paired down versions of classic songs such as “Alone Again (Naturally)”, “Clair” and “Get Down”.  There is also a brand new tracks which features on the album entitled “A Kiss is a Kiss”. This new album is a reminder to both existing fans and potential fans that Gilbert O’Sullivan is the songwriter’s songwriter. Gilbert has been championed in recent years by everyone from Paul Weller, Nina Simone, Mick Hucknall, Squeeze’s Difford & Tilbrook, Neil Diamond to Gary Barlow (whose Crooner Sessions Gilbert duetted on a few years ago), The Charlatans’ Tim Burgess, Empire Of The Sun and Boy George. 

I hear it’s Paul Weller’s favourite Gilbert O’Sullivan track and, this is also the track that Tim Burgess performed with Gilbert on stage at the Barbican in late ’22!
