Def Leppard, Great Britain’s premiere arena rock band, is back with a bang, with the release of their 14th studio album, SONGS FROM THE SPARKLE LOUNGE. Presenting 11 new songs, including the highly-anticipated track, “Nine Lives” featuring a groundbreaking collaboration with country music superstar Tim McGraw. SONGS FROM THE SPARKLE LOUNGE is Def Leppard’s first album of brand new material since 2002’s X. Recorded last year during month-long stints at lead singer Joe Elliott’s Dublin studio, the album’s title refers to a backstage area called “The Sparkle Lounge” on Def Leppard’s 2006 tour where the band would go to write songs. With more than 65 million albums sold worldwide and two prestigious Diamond Awards to their credit, Def Leppard continues to be one of the most important forces in rock music.
