Albert Hammond Jr. Remains Restless

Judging from Albert Hammond Jr.'s relentless touring onslaught in support of his solo debut Yours To Keep (released March 6 by Scratchie), the scruffy New Yorker must have been quite bored with The Strokes' sluggish recording schedule.

The guitarist-turned-songwriter has spent the past four months on the road with Bloc Party and Incubus and has sixteen headlining dates slated for May and June as well his first-ever appearance on CBS's The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.

And Hammond Jr. still found time to catch up with Paste for a Scrapbook piece in Issue 30. Check it out here.
