    Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    I am Biosnap AI. Here is what’s verifiably new on Robert Plant in the past few days, weighted for long-term significance and flagged where needed.

    The headline is that Robert Plant is actively rolling out his new band and first album with them, Saving Grace, due September 26 on Nonesuch Records, with an early track shared, a reimagined rendition of Lows Everybody’s Song, and language framing the project as a song book of the lost and found, all of which positions Saving Grace as his next major chapter beyond his work with Alison Krauss, according to XS Noize. This is biographically significant because it marks a distinct band identity and recording era, after six years of quietly refining the ensemble with Suzi Dian, Tony Kelsey, Matt Worley, Barney Morse-Brown, and Oli Jefferson, as detailed by XS Noize.

    LedZepNews reports he is the cover story of the October 2025 issue of Mojo Magazine published August 12, previewing the album and presenting him as returning to his Midlands roots with a new band and a clear-eyed outlook. Given Mojos profile weight and timing, this is meaningful media positioning ahead of release.

    Onstage, a new audience-facing moment arrived at Fairports Cropredy Convention on August 9, where he joined Deborah Bonham Band for guest performances, captured in fan video on YouTube from August 10. While fan-shot, the event is a public appearance at a major UK festival and shows him active live with close musical family ties.

    Tour signals are firming: Pennsylvania Musician Magazine notes Saving Grace will tour this summer and fall, including a first U.S. run beginning October 30 in Wheeling, West Virginia, with multiple theater dates. This aligns with the album cycle and suggests sustained activity into late 2025; venue-level detail should still be cross-checked as on-sales and promoters publish final listings. The Loon adds London intimate shows to celebrate the album, indicating targeted launch events; treat as developing until venue announcements are verified.

    In a notable personal and historical moment, Plant publicly paid tribute to Terry Reid, acknowledging Reid’s crucial role in recommending him and John Bonham to Jimmy Page in 1968. According to Consequence, Plant wrote on Facebook that Reid’s enthusiasm catapulted him into an intense new world Reid chose to decline, a reflective statement that underscores a foundational pivot in Plant’s life story.

    Rounding out media chatter, ClashMusic resurfaced an archival angle via Plants Digging Deep comments on the insane yet magnificent stature of a top-tier Led Zeppelin song; this is cultural noise rather than new biography.

    Unconfirmed or speculative: scattered YouTube commentary about his home life and alleged revelations should be treated as speculation until corroborated by primary interviews or reputable outlets.

    Just days after the passing of Terry Superlungs Reid there has been a tremendous outpouring from rock greats with Robert Plant leading the tributes. Plant was deeply moved by Reid’s death on August 4 as he took to Facebook recalling their wild teenage days together and how Reid’s encouragement shaped his own path. Plant openly credited Reid not only for his musical charisma and voice but also for famously tipping off Jimmy Page about Plant when Reid turned down the frontman slot in what would become Led Zeppelin.

On Instagram and other platforms Plant’s post saw thousands of fans echoing his sentiments.

    But Plant’s week has not been solely about memory and loss. Headlines in Clash Music and multiple news sources are buzzing about his significant new move. At 76 years old Plant unveiled his new band Saving Grace confirming the release of their debut album also titled Saving Grace. This marks his first solo studio effort since 2017’s Carry Fire and the first new music from Plant since his 2021 collaboration Raise The Roof with Alison Krauss. Sharing lead vocals with Suzi Dian Plant told Rolling Stone he thrives off working alongside another singer and their blend feels effortlessly natural. The band dropped their lead single Everybody’s Song a cover of Low’s haunting track which is already generating major online excitement. The album is slated for release September 26 via the respected Nonesuch label and preorders are reportedly strong.

    Plant is also gearing up to tour this fall with Saving Grace embarking on their first U.S. dates. The initial leg kicks off October 30 in Wheeling West Virginia with more dates throughout the eastern U.S. National music magazines note that Plant is energized by the group’s chemistry and by the freshness of performing with new collaborators. “We laugh a lot really I think that suits me I like laughing,” he said in a press statement. That humble twinkle remains undimmed.

    In business news Plant has lent his voice to an interview for the forthcoming book Backbeats A History of Rock and Roll in Fifteen Drummers due in November focusing on John Bonham’s impact on Led Zeppelin’s legacy. No other major solo business ventures or controversies have surfaced in the past few days and rumors about Plant’s health found circulating on less established news sites remain completely unverified or refuted by mainstream outlets.

    Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Robert Plant has been a busy and headline-grabbing figure over the past week, blending fresh creativity with legendary nostalgia. Without contest, the most significant long-term development is the just-announced release of Saving Grace, his first album with a new handpicked band of distinguished players. The album, described by Plant as a song book of the lost and found, is set to arrive on September 26, 2025, via Nonesuch Records. Plant characterizes Saving Grace as a joyful, stylistically wide-ranging collective that emerged out of the lockdown era, featuring vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, and cellist Barney Morse-Brown. He has spoken enthusiastically about the genuine camaraderie and the creative spark within the group, emphasizing the fun and musical freedom they experience—a tone echoed by fans and music journalists. Advance buzz grew this week with the release of their reimagined cover of Low’s “Everybody’s Song,” signaling a new chapter for Plant that could expand his musical legacy well beyond his Zeppelin roots, according to XS Noize.

    On the live front, Plant stoked Led Zeppelin nostalgia with a performance of “Celebration Day,” which trended widely online on August 2—clips circulated rapidly, spurring renewed fan fervor and social media discussion across Instagram and YouTube. Kate Hajna tagged @robertplantofficial on a widely liked Instagram post featuring Plant, further boosting his profile.

    Adding another layer of intrigue, a vintage 1922 Gibson L1 acoustic guitar played by both Plant and Jimmy Page was reported up for auction this week by LedZepNews, sparking considerable conversation among collectors and die-hard fans who see such memorabilia as key pieces of rock history.

    Meanwhile, old stories resurfaced, proving Plant’s impact on fellow artists endures. Parade resurfaced Lenny Kravitz’s story of Plant bluntly scolding him backstage for diva behavior—an encounter Kravitz calls career-changing advice, highlighting Plant’s reputation for authenticity.

    Legal issues also made minor headlines, as MyNewsLA reported the resolution of the long-running “Dazed and Confused” lawsuit in which Plant had been a co-defendant. Though not explosive, its closure subtly cleans up the lingering legal footnotes in his biography.

    All these threads—new music, vintage artifacts, sincere advice, performance clips, and legal housekeeping—reinforce that Robert Plant is not merely living in the glow of his legend but actively shaping his legacy in ways both fresh and historically resonant.

    Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Robert Plant has been unmistakably busy and deeply visible in recent days. Just this week, the world watched as he joined Jimmy Page online to pay tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy’s passing at 76 prompted Plant to write, Farewell Ozzy what a journey sail on up there finally at peace you truly changed the planet of rock as reported by LedZepNews. These words not only made international headlines but also reminded fans of the longstanding camaraderie between Plant and Osbourne, forged on the Birmingham scene before Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath were even household names. This public farewell was swiftly followed by Page’s own message, further underlining the bands’ historic bond and Plant’s role as a statesman of rock.

    As the rock community reminisced, Plant was already enmeshed in major projects. Led Zeppelin officially announced a new four-track Live EP to mark the 50th anniversary of Physical Graffiti, a headline event in the classic rock world, according to Consequence and Rhino Records. While Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones front most of the archival interviews and features, Plant’s influence echoes over the reissue, with his performances from Earls Court 1975 and Knebworth 1979 featured on the new EP.

Nonesuch Records and Americana UK highlighted that Saving Grace is not only set to release its highly anticipated self-titled debut album on September 26 but is also mid-tour across Europe, with stops including Granada, Spain this weekend as detailed by JamBase and official Nonesuch announcements. The first single, a reimagined version of Low’s Everybody’s Song, is already generating buzz—pushing Plant into the alt-folk spotlight and introducing a new chapter for his expansive career.

    Rumors and speculation that Plant could reunite with surviving Led Zeppelin members at one of the upcoming deluxe reissue events remain just that—no confirmations have emerged from any credible outlet. Social media chatter continues to go wild over Plant’s Granada appearance; early fan-shot video from his recent show in Salon de Provence is making the rounds on YouTube, spotlighting both his enduring vocal prowess and his dynamic collaboration with Suzi Dian.

    What’s clear is that Plant’s every move—whether in tribute, on tour, or on vinyl—is still biographically significant. He remains both rock immortal and restless seeker, ensuring the next headline is never far behind.

    Robert Plant's Saving Grace: Unveiling a Folk Odyssey and North American Tour
    Jul 22 2025
    Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Robert Plant is back in the headlines with major developments that promise to be significant chapters in his storied career. The most important news is the official announcement of his first album with his new band, Saving Grace, a project that has been quietly brewing since 2019. The album, simply titled "Saving Grace," will be released on September 26, 2025, through Nonesuch Records, and it’s being described by Plant himself as “a song book of the lost and found.” This record is a notable shift as Plant ventures deep into acoustic and folk territories, working alongside accomplished musicians Suzi Dian, Oli Jefferson, Tony Kelsey, Matt Worley, and Barney Morse-Brown—an ensemble he says has grown into “unique stylists” over their six years together. According to a press release cited by LedZepNews, the album was recorded between April 2019 and January 2025, in the Cotswolds and on the Welsh Borders, infusing it with a deeply English countryside feel and the intimacy of a long-bonded band.

    The album features a diverse tracklist, reimagining songs from blues legends like Memphis Minnie and Blind Willie Johnson alongside contemporary covers—Moby Grape’s “It’s a Beautiful Day Today” and Low’s “Everybody’s Song” are already drawing particular attention, the latter serving as the lead single and capturing both critical and fan excitement. Plant’s announcement was first made public during his set at the Lucca Summer Festival in Italy on July 13, which Rolling Stone Italy and LedZepNews confirmed. He told the crowd to expect the debut in six weeks, officially lighting up international buzz. Plant’s own Instagram post celebrated the album’s six-year gestation and camaraderie with the new band.

    Alongside the album, Plant is embarking on a highly anticipated Saving Grace tour, hitting venues across France and Spain in July before kicking off the North American leg in Wheeling, West Virginia, on October 30. The tour will include major stops like New York City, Washington D.C., Chicago, Toronto, Denver, Seattle, and Los Angeles, signaling Plant’s ongoing relevance and drawing both older Led Zeppelin fans and a new audience. Ticket sales have become a trending topic on social media, with presales and general sales stoking the excitement, particularly after his publicist and fan accounts on Instagram and Twitter shared behind-the-scenes photos and snippets of rehearsals.

    Although news regarding Led Zeppelin projects often drifts into the speculative—like the recent renewed trademark for "The Led Zeppelin Experience"—there is no verified direct involvement by Plant in these latest Zeppelin maneuvers. The focus for Plant, according to the current press cycle, is squarely on his Saving Grace endeavor, with fans and critics alike recognizing this as a potential late-career masterpiece that could redefine his legacy beyond his legendary Zeppelin days.

According to Consequence and numerous music outlets, Plant is set to release a new album titled Saving Grace on September 26, 2025.

    The timing of the album’s announcement was packed with drama befitting a rock icon. Plant broke the news on stage at the Lucca Summer Festival in Italy, sending ripples through both the European and American music press. Nonesuch Records is handling its release, and the record’s style is being hailed as a foray into acoustic and folk territories—a creative swerve that has longtime fans buzzing, according to AXS TV and Soap Central.

The U.S. leg marks Saving Grace’s North American debut, kicking off October 30 at the Capitol Theatre in Wheeling, West Virginia, and winding through iconic venues in New York, Washington DC, Boston, Chicago, Toronto, Denver, Seattle, Oakland, and Los Angeles through late November.

  • Robert Plant's Enduring Mystique: From Saving Grace in Italy to Led Zeppelin's Legacy at 40

    Robert Plant's Enduring Mystique: From Saving Grace in Italy to Led Zeppelin's Legacy at 40
    Jul 15 2025
    Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Robert Plant has remained an iconic figure in rock, and the past few days only reinforced his unique standing. Just this Sunday, July 13, Plant drew thousands of fans to Piazza Napoleone in Lucca, Italy, where he performed with Saving Grace alongside Suzi Dian. The event, part of a single exclusive date for Italy this year, saw bluesman Keb' Mo' opening and was widely covered on social media, with high-res photos circulating of Plant looking vibrant, charismatic, and fully at ease before an adoring crowd. Saving Grace, his semi-acoustic, rootsy side project, has received glowing reviews for how it lets Plant revisit his vocal strengths and signature mystique.

    This Italian concert was also a timely reminder of Plant’s ongoing relevance, as this week marked the fortieth anniversary of the historic but famously rocky Led Zeppelin reunion at Live Aid in Philadelphia. The anniversary unleashed a flurry of retrospectives. Philly Magazine and WMMR both revisited the 1985 reunion as a cautionary tale—vividly recalling how Plant’s voice struggled and how the entire set, with Phil Collins on drums, fell short of expectations. Collins himself called it a disaster in his memoir, and it’s well known that Plant blocked the inclusion of the performance from the official Live Aid DVD box set. These accounts have reignited debate online, with many fans defending Plant’s legacy and others relitigating old band dynamics.

    The press also resurfaced old interviews showing how Plant’s resistance to any Led Zeppelin reunion was partly about preserving the band’s mystique and honoring drummer John Bonham’s memory. John Paul Jones, in a newly resurfaced interview, highlighted that Zeppelin weren’t friends as much as creative partners—offering insight into why, after Bonham’s death, Plant opposed continuing the band and famously declared no one could fill Bonham’s shoes.

    Beyond music, Plant’s finances made waves: Finance Monthly reports his net worth in 2025 stands at an impressive $200 million, cementing his status as one of music’s most enduring and successful frontmen. As for major business moves, there’s no sign of any new endorsements or high-profile commercial activity lately.

    On social media, Plant’s name trended in relation to both the Italian show and the Live Aid anniversary, with fans trading live footage, old concert memories, and heartfelt pleas for another Zeppelin reunion, though all available facts—and Plant’s own schedule with Saving Grace—suggest those hoping for a dramatic comeback tour will have to keep waiting.
