The former frontman of The Police, speaking to Rolling Stone, said that the album would return to a rock sound after years of more experimental work. NEW YORK - Sting announced Thursday that his new album will come out later this year in a return to his rock roots that will touch on the migrant crisis and climate change. Millions of people will be looking for somewhere safe," he told Rolling Stone. Sting has been touring North America this summer with Peter Gabriel, a fellow rock veteran, as the two collaborate on each other's songs. The musical was a commercial disappointment and Sting said he started working on "57th and 9th" in his unexpected free time afterward.
