Don Felder is set to release his fourth solo album, The Vault – 50 Years of Music, on May 23, 2025, under the Frontiers label. The album marks Felder's first solo project since his illustrious tenure with the Eagles, offering a retrospective look at his extensive career spanning over five decades. The lead single, "Free at Last," is available for listening ahead of the album's launch.
The Vault delves into Felder's vast repository of ideas accumulated since the 1970s. “For every Eagles song, I would write and record 15 to 17 song ideas,” Felder explains. This prolific approach led to iconic tracks like "Hotel California," "Those Shoes," and "Victim of Love." Revisiting his old demos, Felder unearthed hidden gems that have been meticulously re-recorded and enhanced for this collection. Additionally, several new compositions have been integrated to complement the classic material, resulting in a cohesive and dynamic listening experience.
