Iconic US blues-rock guitarist WALTER TROUT is set to release his 30th (!) solo album, ”Ride”, on 19 August via Provogue/Mascot Label Group. However fast or far a man travels, he can never truly outrun his past. On his new album he found himself eyeing the horizon and the green shoots of his triumphant late career.
