The first preview from the album, a seven-minute track called A Plea, is out now. Flea performs trumpet, electric bass and vocals alongside an ensemble of jazz instrumentalists and vocalists.

Flea describes A Plea as “a yearning for a place beyond, a place of love, for me to speak my mind and be myself.” He adds, “I’m always just trying to be myself. I don’t care about the act of politics. I think there is a much more transcendent place above it where there’s discourse to be had that can actually help humanity, and actually help us all to live harmoniously and productively in a way that’s healthy for the world. There’s a place where we meet, and it’s love.”

The video for A Plea, directed by Flea’s daughter Clara Balzary, is streaming now on YouTube. (Watch here)

Flea’s most recent Red Hot Chili Peppers album was Return of the Dream Canteen in 2022, which followed Unlimited Love earlier that year.
