Rod and Colin: FANTASTIC new album.      Getty Images/Tim Whitby.

Colin Blunstone is back with Rod Argent (remember 1972′s “HOLD YOUR HEAD UP” by Argent?) and the rest of [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]The Zombies[/lastfm]:

They’re together again for a tour of Greece and Britain this month. But June will be devoted to Colin’s next solo project. He says on his website, he’ll begin recording tracks for an album he hopes to release in February.

Meanwhile, The Zombies’ new album Breathe Out, Breathe In goes on sale via iTunes Tuesday. Blunstone says the band will mix in some of this new material with their classics in their live shows this summer.

So far, The Zombies, who normally visit North America each summer, have announced only one U.S. date — September 19th in Annapolis, Maryland. ~JZ.
