Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Robert Plant has been lighting up headlines and social feeds these past days with a mix of personal candor and creative fire. Last week in a wide-ranging interview on BBC Radio 2’s The Folk Show with Mark Radcliffe, Plant opened up about the turbulent emotions of his Led Zeppelin years. He admitted being the frontman was “really nerve-wracking,” recalling how he and John Bonham were both just 20 when they wrote “Good Times Bad Times.” Plant confided that Zeppelin’s shows were “like the weather,” magnificent on some nights and far from divine on others—a refreshing bit of honesty from a legend who usually prefers to focus on the present rather than keep repeating Zeppelin lore, according to LedZepNews.

But the real buzz surrounding Plant right now is all about new music. Parade reports the legendary singer has just dropped a visually stunning animated video for “Chevrolet,” the opening track from his new album with Saving Grace, also titled Saving Grace, due for release September 26. The video is already drawing raves on YouTube, with fans calling it “brilliant” and “timeless,” while Plant himself emphasizes the joy of exploring new musical boundaries. The cover of Donovan’s “Hey Gyp (Dig the Slowness),” itself rooted in classic Delta blues, showcases Plant’s signature mix of reverence for musical history and restless reinvention.

Robert Plant and Saving Grace are also gearing up for their first ever North American tour. Ultimate Classic Rock and Nonesuch Records confirm the run starts October 30 in Wheeling, West Virginia, with 15 dates locked in across major cities such as Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Toronto. The band, featuring vocalist Suzi Dian and a rotating cast of distinguished players, reflects Plant’s “song book of the lost and found,” drawing on century-old music—in his words, “a treasury of songs featured back in time by Memphis Minnie, Bob Mosley, Blind Willie Johnson, and The Low Anthem,” as detailed by Nonesuch and the Old Town School of Folk Music.

Social media buzz is robust, with fans and critics sharing clips from the new “Chevrolet” video and discussing the upcoming tour lineup. Recent Instagram fan pages and Twitter feeds are flooded with Plant praise and posts celebrating the new band’s chemistry and the imminent arrival of new music. The consensus: at seventy-seven, Plant sounds as vital and adventurous as ever, making his current creative streak potentially one of the most significant late-career chapters of his biography.

In sum, recent days have delivered not just nostalgia but fresh proof that Robert Plant is still writing his own story—fearless, funny, and very much refusing to live in the past.
