After 2 consecutive new Jethro Tull album releases in 2022 and 2023, a new studio record, "Curious Ruminant", is unleashed on March 7th, 2025. Consisting of 9 new tracks varying in length from 2 and half minutes to almost 17 minutes, this is an album of mostly full band music. Amongst the musicians featured are former keyboardist Andrew Giddings and drummer James Duncan, along with the current band members David Goodier, John O'Hara, Scott Hammond and, making his recording debut with the band, guitarist Jack Clark.
To coincide with this announcement, the album's title track has been launched digitally, alongside a video by Costin Chioreanu, who previously created the band's video for "Ginnungagap" from "RökFlöte".
‘Curious Ruminant’ will be available on several different formats, including a limited deluxe ultra clear 180g 2 LP + 2 CD + BluRay artbook and a limited deluxe 2 CD + BluRay artbook. Both of these feature the main album, alternative stereo mixes and a BluRay containing Dolby Atmos and 5.1 surround sound, once again undertaken by Bruce Soord of The Pineapple Thief, as well as exclusive interview material. The limited deluxe vinyl artbook also includes 2 exclusive art prints. The album will also be available as a special edition CD digipak, gatefold 180g LP + booklet and as a digital album, in both stereo & Dolby Atmos.
