Guitarist Mark Tremonti<\/a> has offered an update on new music from Creed<\/a>, who haven\u2019t released any material since 2009, despite reuniting in 2023.<\/p>\n

In a new interview with \u201cCutter\u2019s Rockcast<\/a>,\u201d Tremonti said Creed want to keep touring following their highly successful reunion runs, but need some fresh songs to add to their setlists.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we did all this touring [over the past couple of years], we were so busy that there was no way for us to really put new music together,\u201d he said (as transcribed by Blabbermouth<\/a>). \u201cAnd the tour was already on sale, so to jump off tour to record an album wouldn\u2019t have been the right move. But now that we have all the time going forward, I think promoters and agents and managers are all, like, \u2018All right, you gotta have something, a driver for the next tour. You can\u2019t just go out and do the same thing. So there\u2019s either gotta be some incredible package you put together or new music.’\u201d<\/p>\n

The guitarist added, \u201cSo, I\u2019ve been working real hard on trying to put together new ideas so I can get together with [singer] Scott [Stapp] and start working. But, it would probably have to be the middle of next year before we start doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The topic of new Creed songs has come up frequently since the band reunited, with Tremonti telling Vanyaland<\/a> in 2024 that he has \u201cliterally thousands\u201d of riffs stockpiled. In a separate chat with Guitar Interactive<\/a> around that same time, Tremonti noted that \u201cit\u2019d be good to try to get back to that original sound a little more\u201d when Creed does work on new music, as compared to 2009\u2019s Full Circle, their last album.<\/p>\n

The creative hangups with Creed appear to be purely logistical, as Tremonti certainly hasn\u2019t suffered from writer\u2019s block, churning out multiple albums with his eponymous solo band and his other major rock project, Alter Bridge, in the intervening years. Stapp, meanwhile, has released a number of solo albums, including a 2024 LP titled Higher Power.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Creed still have live gigs on the books, including their \u201cCreedmas\u201d holiday shows<\/a> in December. And after that, Tremonti and Alter Bridge will hit the road for a US tour<\/a> in January in support of their upcoming self-titled eighth album<\/a>, arriving January 9th.<\/p>\n
