It's been twelve years since Lita Ford's last studio album. However, the wait for new music from the rock icon could soon be over.
Lita Ford released her last album with new songs, LIVING LIKE A RUNAWAY (2012) . In between, there was only TIME CAPSULE (2016), which, however, contains material from the 80s. Since then, fans of the former Runaways guitarist have been waiting for fresh material, which could be released soon.

Lita Ford: New album is almost finished
Speaking to SiriusXM's Eddie Trunk , Ford explained: "We just need to master it, which will take a day. It's pretty much done." By "we" she means herself and guitarist and producer Gary Hoey. "I've been working with Hoey on this record for a long time. And I feel like a lot of the songs are so personal that I never want to record them again. So what you're going to hear on this record is the real deal. It came from the heart and the soul. I feel like I had to experience it before we could write it."
That could explain why the work took so long. After all, the announcement was made several years ago. Lita Ford says of her collaboration with Gary Hoey: "He's the greatest. He just catches things. You start a sentence and he finishes it. And we work very well together." In July, she raved about working with Hoey in a radio interview: "Gary Hoey is a great musician, a great guitarist. I could throw any idea at him and he would try to make it happen."
A great story
She also said at the time that she had finished the album and was "really excited about it" . After all, she had complete control over the creation of the songs. "This is entirely Lita and what Lita wanted to do ," she said, and continued: "It's a concept album. There's a big story behind it. So it will open a lot of doors for a lot of things. And a lot of people will be able to identify with this record."
