Monte Pittman is “deeply in love with MDNA”

13 03 2012

Monte Pittman took a break from his busy schedule in NYC and talked about music, his signature guitar and of course Madonna! Check out an excerpt from his interview at Yahoo!Voices.

 I’m going on tour with Madonna again. The dates are on her website. I’m deeply in love with her new album. It’s one of my favorite things she’s ever done. You can listen to all of the singles individually, but I like listening to entire albums. I think these are some of her deepest lyrics I’ve heard from her. I’m blown away and can’t wait to play some of this stuff live. For me, it kind of sums up everything we all have ever loved about her in one.

As soon as I’m done with all of this, I’m making my third album. It’s written. It just needs to be recorded. I’ve already started making the blueprint for it. When that comes out, I’m putting myself on whatever tour I can book — however I can.

See for yourselves: The Queen is BACK! (we never doubted her anyway!)
