Manu Chao has announced ‘Viva Tu’, his first full-length in 17 years, which will be available on September 20. The Franco-Spanish singer’s last release was ‘La Radiolina’ in 2007.
The first single was the song that gives the album its name, ‘Viva Tu’, with a flamenco sound and the cheerful tone that we are used to from the legendary leader of Mano Negra. On the other hand, ‘São Paulo Motoboy’, released today, is more difficult to classify, always maintaining the good vibe.
One of the most talked about new features of ‘Viva Tu’, which would be Chao’s fifth studio album, is a collaboration with Willie Nelson on the song ‘Heaven’s Bad Day’.
