  ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic plans in 2017 to release ‘Squeeze Box’, a comprehensive, 15-album box set, housed inside a replica of his accordion. The well-known eccentric parodist’s box set will is to be a compendium of music that spans Yankovic’s career, from his eponymous 1983 debut to 2014’s ‘Mandatory Fun’. The album will be available on remastered CD, vinyl, and in digital format. The box set will also include a bonus rarities record and a 100-page book that features “hidden treasures from Al’s vault”. ‘Weird Al’ recently became the bandleader for IFC TV’s show ‘Comedy Bang! Bang!’, succeeding rapper Kid Cudi and his doppleganger in bizarre-dom and big hair, Reggie Watts. Al is also in the midst of a massive 78-date North American tour in continued support of his mega successful, Grammy-winning LP, ‘Mandatory Fun’. On June 16th ‘Weird Al’ performed a sell-out concert at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, continuing until September 24th with a tour closing concert at the Radio City Music Hall in New York. |
