Heartbreaker announces solo release


Benmont Tench, Tom Petty's longtime keyboard player, will release You Should Be So Lucky February 18th.  Petty joins a cast of supporting artists that also includes Ringo Starr, Don Was, Ryan Adams and Gillian Welch. Production is being handled by Glyn Johns, who Tench admires as '...one of the greatest producers and engineers' in rock history and a guy who always '...tells you exactly what he thinks and hde backs it up'.  Producer/musician Don Was, who is also the President of Blue Note, the label releasing the album, calls Tench '...the most enigmatic, mystical and delightful musician' and adds, '...musicians from all walks of life hold him in the highest esteem and love to play with him.  His presence on a session or stage elevates everyond's performance to new heights.'  In addition to Benmont Tench originals, the album will include covers of Bob Dylan's Duquesne Whistle and his arrangement of the traditional blues song Corina, Corina.
