Covers album drops Feb 24th via BMG
Grammy-nominated international superstar Adam Lambert announces his new album, High Drama, via his new deal with BMG. Fans who pre-order get an instant grat of “Ordinary World,” a powerful ballad of the Duran Duran hit with Lambert’s beautifully sung sensitive vocals. A visualizer for the track is available as well.
The pop star and Queen frontman will perform the track on the season finale of NBC’s The Voice, tonight (Dec 13th) at 9 pm ET.
The album will be available for purchase on vinyl in March 2023.
Lambert is no stranger to impressing crowds with his carefully curated transformation of other artist’s songs, from the beginning of his career on American Idol, to his 2018 performance at the Kennedy Center Honors where Lambert reduced Cher to tears with his delicate ballad reading of her mega-hit “Believe,” to his role as the current frontman of Queen.
Executive produced by Lambert, alongside production from the likes of Tommy English (Kacy Musgraves, Carly Rae Jepsen), Andrew Wells (Halsey, OneRepublic), George Moore and Mark Crew, High Drama showcases a journey through modern music. The diverse collection of songs span from classics such as Ann Peebles’ “I Can’t Stand The Rain” and Bonnie Tyler’s “Holding Out For A Hero,” to modern hits like Billie Eilish’s “Getting Older” which gets a glam-inspired transformation, and a rock-leaning rendition of Lana Del Rey’s “West Coast,” each song showcasing Lambert’s unmatched vocal talent.
High Drama kickstarts the next chapter in Lambert’s solo career, and of course draws on his well-known penchant for high drama! An artist comfortable in his own skin, being well and truly himself, and loving every minute.
