Grammy Award-winning rock legend Boz Scaggs will release his new album “Memphis” on March 5.

Scaggs’ debut album on 429 Records was recorded at Willie Mitchell’s Royal Studio in Memphis where Mitchell recorded Al Green and other Hi Records artists.

Scaggs is supported by a talented line-up of musicians on “Memphis”: Willie Weeks (bass), Ray Parker Jr. (guitars), Spooner Oldham (keyboards), the Memphis Horns, Lester Snell (string arrangements) and Steve Jordan (drums). The album was produced by Steve Jordan.

Boz Scaggs began recording in the mid-60s with the solo album “Boz” and went on to work with Steve Miller on several successful projects before achieving multi-platinum success with his “Silk Degrees” solo album in 1976. He and his band continue to tour worldwide and Scaggs also performs alongside Donald Fagan and Michael McDonald in their band billed as The Dukes of September. He will begin a tour to support “Memphis” on March 21.
