Alabama Shakes confirm comeback, tease first new music in eight years
Briefly

Alabama Shakes are making their comeback after a lengthy hiatus, reuniting on stage last year and teasing new music on Instagram. The band, featuring Brittany Howard, Zac Cockrell, and Heath Fogg, is working with producer Shawn Everett on a follow-up album to their successful 2015 release, Sound & Color. Their last official song was in 2018 for a soundtrack. Although Steve Johnson, the original drummer, did not participate in their recent performances, the inclusion of Ben Tanner in future recordings remains uncertain. Brittany Howard continues to pursue solo projects amidst the band's revival.
Working on some exciting stuff!," the Instagram caption reads, with photos depicting the band - Brittany Howard, Zac Cockrell, and Heath Fogg - crafting the follow-up to 2015's Sound & Color in a studio with producer Shawn Everett.
The group hasn't formally released a new song since their Grammy-winning rendition of "Killer Diller Blue" for the soundtrack of The American Epic sessions in 2018.
