Billy Gibbons has a new single out, and he brought a friend. The ZZ Top guitarist has released “Brown Paper Bag,” a track featuring Keith Urban on lead guitar. Gibbons kept the description simple on social media, calling Urban “my good buddy, Keith Urban, playing some good-ass guitar.” No further details on the song have surfaced yet.
The single adds to Gibbons’ run of solo work outside ZZ Top. He’s put out three solo albums to date, all via Concord Records, starting with 2015’s ‘Perfectamundo’, followed by 2018’s ‘The Big Bad Blues’ and 2021’s ‘Hardware’. “Brown Paper Bag” keeps the momentum going between projects.
The release lands just ahead of a busy summer for ZZ Top. The trio opens a European tour in Tartu, Estonia on June 22, then heads back to the States for more shows in August.
