Rock icons The Who hope to finish the recording of their upcoming studio album by May.

According to guitarist Pete Townshend, The Who are trying to finish and mix 10 to 12 tracks so that a completed album can be delivered to the group’s label, Polydor, before May.

“May is the very latest that makes any sense. If we don’t make this deadline the album could easily slip into 2020 because the tour dates are filling up the year. So we are trying to be as focused as possible, but still have fun in the studio,” Townshend said.

Townsend also pointed out that he and producer Dave Sardy are currently working in London, putting tracks together and adding bits and pieces, while lead singer Roger Daltrey is working on his vocals in a different studio in Kent.

“I am also doing work on a couple of new songs that we may include which will be good to see in these video diaries [I’ve been posting online] because we will be starting on songs from the ground up if they happen. Drums, bass, guitar and maybe keyboards. Maybe even a Roger vocal if he is around,” Townshend added.
