David Bowie Shares Teaser Trailer for Next Single, “Lazarus”

Dec 14, 2015 David Bowie By Christopher Roberts

David Bowie is releasing a brand new 7-song LP entitled Blackstar (but styled as ★) on January 8, 2016 (which is Bowie’s birthday). We’ve already been treated to the amazing sci-fi video for the album’s 10-minute long title track. This Thursday the album’s next single, “Lazarus,” will premiere on both BBC 6 Music and NPR. Below is a 15-second trailer for the song. It’s the only song on Blackstar to be featured in Bowie’s current off-Broadway play, also titled Lazarus. The cast of the play will also perform the song this Thursday on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Blackstar was recorded at the Magic Shop studio in New York with local jazz musicians and is the follow-up to 2013’s excellent The Next Day. Part of the album’s title track has been used as the theme song to the British TV heist drama for Sky Atlantic, The Last Panthers.
