Why Adam Lambert’s covers album High Drama Will Win Over new fans

Pop sensation Adam Lambert is gearing up to release a new solo album.

The singer-songwriter announced that he has made a new record titled High Drama.

“I’m very excited to announce that I have a new album coming out. It is an album of covers, and it is called High Drama,” he said. “We thought, let me do an album where I take songs that you probably know, maybe a few you don’t know, and completely flip them around so they feel like something new and something that you haven’t heard before.”

Out on February 24th, the album features a fresh take on Ann Peebles’ Southern soul classic ‘I Can’t Stand The Rain’, as well as Bonnie Tyler’s iconic power ballad ‘Holding Out For A Hero’.

It’s not just classics, though – Adam will also cover Billie Eilish’ inimitable ‘Getting Older’, alongside a rock take on Lana Del Rey’s ‘West Coast’ MarkMeets.com can exclusively reveal.

Ahead of all this, Adam Lambert has shared his version of ‘Ordinary World’ by Duran Duran, skewing it in an emotion-drenched ballad direction.

Adam didn’t share any further details though High Drama will be available for pre-order on 13 December.

Of course, the American Idol alum is no stranger to putting his own spin on other people’s songs. His cover of “Mad World” was renowned, and he brought Cher to tears with his stunning cover of “Believe” at the Kennedy Center Honorees 2018.

The album marks the Queen collaborator’s first solo album since Velvet dropped in 2020.

More recently, Adam contributed a cover of Noel Coward‘s “Mad About the Boy” to the soundtrack for the documentary Mad About the Boy – The Noel Coward Story, which will premiere in 2023.
