Stone Temple Pilots guitarist and songwriter Dean DeLeo has teamed up with UK vocalist Pete Shoulder once again to produce their second collaborative album, "One More Satellite". The duo follows the same creative blueprint as their previous effort, with DeLeo sending over song ideas from the US for Shoulder to craft melodies and lyrics before tracking across the Atlantic.

Co-produced by long-time collaborator Ryan Williams, the new record features ten tracks where DeLeo's signature layered guitar work meshes with Shoulder's vocal delivery. While the core dynamic remains consistent, the record sees a significant addition: DeLeo's brother and Stone Temple Pilots bandmate, bassist Robert DeLeo, contributes to five of the ten tracks.

I love my brother and [I am] thrilled that he is on this record.

Robert's involvement is a highlight of the new single, "Cry". DeLeo expressed his enthusiasm for his brother's contribution, noting his work on the track "Stare Down the Sun" is "really something incredible".

DeLeo also drew a nostalgic link during the creation of "Cry", noting a specific guitar lick is reminiscent of his time playing in Joe Walsh's band. The track features Robert DeLeo on bass and Brian Tichy on drums, with Shoulder providing the melodic anchor. The full tracklist for "One More Satellite" includes "Cry", "Stare Down the Sun", "Better Days", "Serenity", "Turn Back the Page", "Déjà Vu", "Celebration", "Blow", "Your Side of the Sky", and "One Winter".
