Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Robert Plant has been keeping quite busy as we head into the final stretch of 2025. The Led Zeppelin legend, now 77 years old, continues to prove he's far from slowing down with his latest creative ventures and touring commitments.

Most recently, Plant secured a US trademark for his iconic feather symbol back on November 15th, a move that further solidifies his brand identity and intellectual property protection as he navigates his ongoing career. This practical business step underscores his continued engagement with the professional side of the music industry.

On the creative front, Plant's passion project Saving Grace has been generating significant momentum. The album, which dropped on September 26th through Nonesuch Records, marks his twelfth studio album outside of Led Zeppelin and features collaborators including vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, and cellist Barney Morse-Brown. The band has already performed a sold-out debut show at DTLA's United Artists Theater, where critics noted the genre-bending nature of the performance that showcased the rocker's considerable musical depth.

When discussing his current direction, Plant has been remarkably philosophical about his artistic evolution. In recent interviews, he's acknowledged that he's moved away from the "full throttle rock" sound that defined his early career, describing his current work as his "saving grace" after spending decades on what he calls various "buses" that led to particular destinations in his career. He's also been candid about his voice and how influences like Charlie Rich and Elvis Presley have shaped his vocal adaptability over the years.

Looking ahead, Plant's December tour with Saving Grace kicks off at Portsmouth Guildhall on December 8th and runs through December 23rd, hitting major UK cities including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Newcastle. The 10-date run will see support from indie-folk duo Burr Island at all dates. Beyond the UK dates, Plant and Saving Grace have already announced plans to return to the US in 2026, with a headline performance confirmed at the Big Ears Festival. For someone in his late seventies, Plant's creative output and touring schedule remain genuinely impressive, demonstrating a musician still hungry to explore new musical territories and connect with audiences.
