Legendary singer/songwriter Yusuf Islam releases his first album of new songs for almost 30 years this autumn.

The album is a collection of brand new songs including revivification of some truly spellbinding compositions which lay unfinished in Yusuf's musical memory and completed for this album. All were recorded over the past year with renowned producer Rick Nowels.

Yusuf Islam is one of the UK's most celebrated artists. As Cat Stevens he achieved international success in both the Sixties and Seventies. In 1977 Stevens embraced Islam, adopted the name Yusuf Islam and took a break from music.

Over the years, Yusuf's work has been recognised with major awards. In 2004 he was awarded the Man for Peace award by a committee of Nobel peace laureates. In 2005 he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Gloucestershire for services to education and humanitarian relief.

Yusuf Islam has signed a new deal with Polydor Records to release the as-yet-untitled album later this year.
