Queen + Paul Rodgers, featuring Roger Taylor (photo) behind the drum kit, will grace us with new music on tour next summer. The group has been in the studio this year, and according to Queen guitarist Brian May they are considering a new album:\"The tracks seems to be coming out very well, so we\'ll have to think about whether this is an entire album, or whether it\'s just a few tracks, and there\'s a possibility we\'ll go out on tour next summer as well. We\'re thinking about that.\"
May has not disclosed any tourdates might be announced, nor did he say when they might release the new material.
Vocalist Paul Rodgers first hooked up with May at the 50th anniversary concert for the Fender Stratocaster guitar in London in September 2004, where May backed Rodgers on the Free song All Right Now. Both men felt an instant chemistry, and it was confirmed a few weeks later when Queen was inducted into the U.K. Music Hall Of Fame.
At that event, Rodgers joined May and drummer Roger Taylor for versions of All Right Now and Queen\'s We Will Rock You. Things went so well that everyone decided to take the relationship forward.
The group, which played both Queen songs and material from Rodgers\'s days with Free and Bad Company, did two shows in the United States in the fall of 2005, before mounting a proper North American tour in 2006.
