Overview
- McCartney's new album, which he announced Thursday, arrives with the lead single “Days We Left Behind” now on YouTube and streaming platforms.
- The 14-track record is set for May 29 release, with pre-orders live, and its title comes from a lyric in the lead single.
- Label materials call it his most introspective work, drawing on childhood scenes in Liverpool with direct nods to Forthlin Road and John Lennon.
- Andrew Watt produced the album after the pair developed it over roughly five years, recording in sessions split between Sussex and Los Angeles as touring allowed.
- This is McCartney’s first full-length solo release since McCartney III in 2020, reflecting his ongoing output at age 83 and the enduring interest in his Beatles-era roots.
