Phil Collins has said he is “not hungry enough” to make any new music.The soloist and former Genesis singer/drummer hasn’t released an album of original music since Disney’s Brother Bear soundtrack in 2003.

His seventh and latest solo record, ‘Testify’, arrived the previous year. In 2010, he shared an LP of Mowtown and soul covers titled ‘Going Back’.Collins has been suffering from health issues in recent years, following a spinal injury back in 2007.

At Genesis’ final shows in 2022, he performed from a chair while his son Nic took on drum duties. He also uses a cane to help him walk.However, it was reported last summer that Collins was working on new music for the first time in over two decades after having his studio revamped.

This update came from producer and journalist Simon Napier-Bell, who posted an image of himself with Collins.“For sure, before too long we’re going to hear some new music,” he wrote in the caption (see below).THE MARQUEE MOVIE…Yesterday we filmed Phil Collins at his house by Lake Geneva.
