Saving Grace: Plant's Lockdown Sessions Revive Classic Songs

Robert Plant’s Saving Grace isn’t a single album so much as a long-gestating roots revival. Born during the pandemic and developed over six years with a tight group of collaborators, the project blends blues, folk, gospel, and country into a fresh set of ten reimagined songs—plus a hypnotic take on Gospel Plough. Plant and the band produced the record themselves, recording from 2019 through early 2025 in the English countryside, with voices ranging from Memphis Minnie to Low. He describes Saving Grace as “a song book for the lost and found,” proof that roots music can be living, breathing, and continually renewed.
