Lennon involves other artists on album

Sean Lennon has included a number of guest performances on his first new album in six years.

Friendly Fire is the solo artist's second LP, and will feature contributions from his mother Yoko Ono, as well as Ryan Adams, Ben Lee, and actor Vincent Gallo amongst others.

Explaining the prolonged delay between his latest work and his 1998 debut album Into The Sun, Lennon told NME: "There was a long period after the first album where I felt disillusioned with the machinery of the industry. It's not that I stopped recording, playing and performing, I did all of those things, just more discreetly. Friendly Fire is an experiment to see what it might be like to do music more publicly again."
