The Babyshambles man's solo effort will be out this year

Pete Doherty has announced that he will complete the recording of his debut solo album this month and release it later this year.

In a statement to NME.COM Doherty confirmed – as he told NME.COM earlier this year – that he will travel to an undisclosed European studio this month with producer Jake Fior to finish the album, which is now over half complete.

Songs set to feature on the album include 'Darksome Sea', 'Salome', 'Broken Love Song' and 'Withdrawn And Shaken'.

Doherty added that he will honour all his booked live commitments with Babyshambles, but will not book further gigs until the solo album is finished.
