Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Robert Plant has spent the past few days doing what he likes best at this stage of his life turning fresh chapters into living, breathing music. Nonesuch Records and NPRs World Cafe report that he has been out promoting Saving Grace, the new album with his band Saving Grace featuring Suzi Dian, sitting down with host Raina Douris to talk about how this tight knit Welsh Borders ensemble and their song book of the lost and found quite literally saved his sanity and gave him a way to keep singing without the circus of Led Zeppelin scale expectations. On the same program, he performed new material live with the band, staking a late career claim that feels biographically important a pivot from rock god mythology to elder folk mystic fronting a democratic acoustic collective. Led Zeppelin News and Planet Rock highlight the business side of that reinvention with a flurry of tour news. In May he will take Saving Grace across South America with dates announced in Buenos Aires, Porto Alegre and Rio de Janeiro, extending his long habit of treating the globe as his backyard and underlining that this is no side project but his primary musical vehicle. Planet Rock also pushes the just announced ten date UK run in December next year from Portsmouth Guildhall to York Barbican presented as Robert Plant and Saving Grace in full pre Christmas theater mode, and ticket outlets like AXS and NeedATicket are already trumpeting individual shows as must see events. In the United States, WMOT is currently running a Ryman Auditorium giveaway for Robert Plant with Saving Grace and Suzi Dian, reinforcing his ongoing love affair with Americana strongholds and the business machinery around this album cycle. According to Nonesuchs coverage, the record itself has been six years in the making, recorded in the Cotswolds and along the Welsh Borders, and its release this month is the clear headline in every serious piece about him. Around the edges, there is lighter chatter JD McPherson on WFPK reminiscing about working with his childhood hero Robert Plant, classic rock outlets rehashing his old double entendre lyrics, and an online repost of his past comments about Stairway to Heaven. Those are nostalgic ripples. The biographically consequential action right now is Robert Plant methodically locking in tours, media, and a full creative identity around Saving Grace, quietly rewriting his legacy one small stage and one carefully chosen song at a time.
