The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers will release a new solo album next year, according to a new interview. The follow-up to his 2010 debut, Flamingo, will be produced by Grammy-winning Vampire Weekend and HAIM producer Ariel Rechtshaid.Although it’s still in the works, Flowers notes that, unlike Flamingo, the new album will not be entirely inspired by The Killers’ Las Vegas hometown.

Renowned producer Rechtshaid, however, proves to be an “incredible” influential force in the studio. “He’s taking me out of my comfort zone,” Flowers comments.

No word yet on a more solid release date for Flowers’ new album or its possible guest collaborations.
