United States is British rock legend Ian McLagan's first new studio album in five years, and his first since being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a founding member of the Faces. The album alternates between lusty grooves and reflective musings, showcasing McLagan's beguiling charm and timeless gift for crafting memorable hooks. Yearning standout "Love Letter" leads into the smooth and moody take-charge song "Who Says It Ain't Love," while "Shalalala" draws from classic soul and "How Blue" rides a boogie-woogie shuffle.

The 10 original tracks feature McLagan on vocals, keys, and guitar, joined by his longtime collaborators the Bump Band ('Scrappy' Jud Newcomb, Jon Notarthomas, and Conrad Choucroun), with Leigh Mahoney (David Byrne, the Tosca Strings) on violin for album closer "He's Not For You." McLagan recorded and produced the album at his own The Doghouse Studios in Manor, TX. The songs were mixed by longtime friend Glyn Johns (The Faces, The Who) and mastered by Bob Ludwig (Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones).
