The new studio album from Europe guitarist John Norum, 'Play Yard Blues,' will be released on July 5th in the UK on Mascot Records

Following Europe's critically acclaimed '09 album Last Look At Eden, 'Play Yard Blues' is Norum's seventh solo release, featuring seven original tracks and three inspired covers, including Thin Lizzy's "It's Only Money", Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush's "Ditch Queen" and Mountain's "Travellin' in the Dark".

The new album sees Norum take his guitar playing in a new direction. While his trademark sound and distinctive style remains, 'Play Yard Blues' embodies a bluesy rock vibe and a more soulful approach.

Recorded in Stockholm, 'Play Yard Blues' was mixed and produced by John Norum; the album features his long-standing Europe bandmate Mic Michaeli (keyboards).
