Ringo Starr on Making a Second Album With T Bone Burnett, ‘Long Long Road’: ‘I’d Love to Be Ray Charles, but My Voice Works for Country’

Ringo Starr's new album "Long Long Road" has been released, produced by T Bone Burnett in a country/Americana vein. The album features Starr's vocals alongside younger musicians like Molly Tuttle and Billy Strings, and great players like David Mansfield and Colin Linden. Burnett aimed to reframe Starr's voice, which he believes is underrated as a singer. The album is the second collaboration between Starr and Burnett, following their first album "Look Up" released in 2025.
