Yes, the Pope is Releasing a Prog-Rock Album; Hear a Song Here

Pope Francis, a.k.a. “Cool Pope,” has been rocking Washington D.C. this week — and in two months, he might actually rock the Billboard charts.

As reported by Rolling Stone, the Pope is planning the release of a “prog-rock-infused album” for Nov. 27.

Titled Wake Up!, and approved by the Vatican, the album blends the Pope’s speeches with music by various musicians, including Tony Pagliaca, who founded prog-rock band Le Orme and worked with Van Der Graaf Generator.
