Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos -- whose band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Friday night (April 8) by Kid Rock -- will be releasing a solo album, Greetings From Bunezuela!, on June 24.

The 13-song album, arriving on eOne Music, includes 10 cover tracks, such as the Bee Gees’ “Idea,” The Rolling Stones’ "Tell Me" and The Who's "Armenia in the Sky." In fact, first single “Do Something Real” is a cover of a Robert Pollard solo song, and the Guided by Voices vocalist sings on the track.

The album’s current track listing is as follows:
