The musician also hinted at a new music video in his tweet. The musician recently signed an album deal with musical publisher BMG, describing the deal the musician expressed his joy and stated “It’s a good feeling”

The musician departed from the band in 1987 and worked with various bands until embarking on his solo career. The soloist released his debut solo album The Messenger co-produced with James Doviak on February 25th 2013. The album reached number 10 in the UK Official Singles Chart and the musician has not released any solo material since the release of his 2019 single “Single Life”.
