In their end of 2024 address to fans, The Doobie Brothers shared news of a new album coming in 2025, and now they’re finally revealing details of the release.

The album, Walk This Road, will drop June 6 and features the reunited line up of Patrick Simmons, Tom Johnston and Michael McDonald.

Walk This Road features 10 tracks, including the previously released tune “Lahaina.” The band’s also just released two new songs, “Call Me” and the title track, which features special guest Mavis Staples. Both are now available via digital outlets

Walk This Road will be the first new release from The Doobie Brothers since 2021’s Liberté, and the first full album of original material with McDonald since 1980’s One Step Closer.

“Getting back in with the guys and playing again is great,” said McDonald. “In my heart I’ve always been a Doobie Brother. We’ve all remained friends over the years. We’ve all been enjoying it tremendously, even more than we thought we would.”

Walk This Road is available for preorder now. Here is the track list for the album:

“Walk this Road” featuring Mavis Staples
“Angels & Mercy”
“Call Me”
“Learn to Let Go”
