Jungle Announce Fifth Album ‘Sunshine’ And A Massive Global Arena Tour With Lead Single “Carry On”

0

Sunshine, the new album from much-lauded British band Jungle, is set for release on August 14 via AWAL—pre-save/pre-order here. A new song, “Carry On,” is out today—listen here. The track, which debuted this morning as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record, features Lydia Kitto’s vocals at its emotional core alongside founders, songwriters and producers Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland’s signature production.

In support of the album, Jungle will embark on a global headline tour with stops across North America, the U.K. and Europe this fall, with an Australia run to follow in March 2027. Kicking off on September 9 in Minneapolis, stops include New York’s Barclays CenterLos Angeles’ Crypto.com ArenaLondon’s O2 Arena and many more. See below for full tour routing and visit junglejunglejungle.com for more information.

Tickets are on sale to the public starting March 27, with artist presale beginning March 26. Jungle is using Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange to help fans get tickets at the original price. Tickets can only be resold on Ticketmaster at face value. In states where laws prevent resale restrictions, Ticketmaster will still honor Jungle’s terms by keeping resale prices at face value on its site.

Sunshine follows the band’s critically acclaimed 2023 LP Volcano, called “unstoppable” and a “timeless classic” by NPR. Volcano saw the band receive widespread praise and tour the world in its wake, as well as the runaway success of Platinum single “Back On 74,” which took the world by storm upon release.

The album will be released in unique physical formats, including black 180g single gatefold LP, Desert Peach single gatefold LP, translucent brown marble single gatefold LP and digipak CD.

Jungle, whose live performances were praised as a “perfect…come-as-you-are party” by Variety, will look to bring their signature show to an ever-wider audience, having played for over 190,000 people on their previous global tour in 2023 and 2024.

Jungle was founded by Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland, who met at the age of 10 in West London’s Shepherd’s Bush. They began making music together at the beginning of 2013, choosing to put the aesthetic emphasis on the music’s surrounding artwork and videos rather than on their own identities. The production and songwriting duo has since expanded, welcoming vocalist and producer Lydia Kitto to the group as a permanent member in 2023.

Jungle’s acclaimed 2014 self-titled debut album was a Mercury Prize nominee and is now Gold-certified while their lauded 2018 follow-up, For Ever, reached #10 on the UK Albums Chart. In addition, their 2021 album, Loving In Stereo, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Current Electronic Albums chart while also peaking at #3 on Independent Albums, #4 on Current Rock Albums and #6 on Current Alternative Albums charts. Their fourth album, Volcano, continued their commercial and critical success, peaking at #3 on the UK Albums Chart as well as earning the band a BRIT Award for Group of the Year. They’ve performed on five continents, headlining venues both stateside and abroad while performing at major music festivals such as Glastonbury, Coachella, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza.

Foreigner Announce Massive 50th Anniversary Tour Expansion With New Dates And A Broadway-Style Musical

0

Fifty years in and Foreigner are not slowing down. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers have announced a major expansion of their 2026 anniversary touring schedule, adding new dates in Albuquerque, El Paso, Scottsdale, Reno, and more to a calendar that already tops 90 shows across the U.S. and Europe, with numerous sold-out concerts already on the books. The celebration extends into 2027, when the band marks the 50th anniversary of their iconic self-titled debut album.

“When I started Foreigner in 1976, I never could have imagined that these songs would carry us through fifty years and still resonate with audiences around the world,” said founding member Mick Jones. The numbers bear him out: more than 80 million albums sold, 16 Top 30 hits, 10 multi-platinum albums, and catalog streams approaching 20 million per week. Billboard’s Greatest of All Time listings rank them alongside Fleetwood Mac in Top 10 hits, ahead of Journey.

The anniversary year spans formats and continents. April brings original vocalist Lou Gramm back into the fold for “Foreigner 4 Deluxe,” performing the legendary album ‘4’ in its entirety across Florida dates. June launches a 26-date European run including sold-out shows in Germany, the U.K., Switzerland, and Scandinavia. July 23 kicks off the “Double Trouble Double Vision” co-headline tour with Lynyrd Skynyrd at amphitheaters across the United States.

Also in April, Foreigner’s legacy moves to the stage with ‘Feels Like The First Time: The Foreigner Musical’, directed by Broadway star Adam Pascal and developed with the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts and LIU’s Post Theatre Company. Set in 1985, the production follows a suburban family who win an MTV sweepstakes for a weekend visit from a rock icon. It runs eleven performances from April 17 through 26 at The Little Theatre on LIU’s Brookville campus. Tickets are on sale now at TillesCenter.org/FLTFT. And in July 2026, the band releases ‘In The Eye of The Storm’, a concert and documentary film capturing a historic 2025 performance on Ellis Island with Lou Gramm and special surprise guests.

Chip Taylor, Songwriter Behind “Wild Thing” And “Angel Of The Morning,” Dies At 86

0

Chip Taylor, the Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee who wrote two of the most covered songs in the history of popular music, died Monday in hospice care. He was 86. Born James Wesley Voight on March 21, 1940 in Yonkers, New York, Taylor leaves behind a catalog that touched virtually every corner of American music, from garage rock to country to R&B, and a legacy that will outlast most of what gets written in any given decade.

“Wild Thing” came first. Written in minutes at the request of a producer working with Jordan Christopher and the Wild Ones, the song’s raw simplicity made it irresistible. The Troggs took it to number one in July 1966. Jimi Hendrix performed it at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 and set his guitar on fire when he was done. X recorded it. It appeared in Major League. Taylor considered it the beginning of punk. “It’s simple and it feels good,” he said. “It’s sweaty. Sweaty things are good.”

“Angel of the Morning” followed a different arc. First recorded by Evie Sands in 1967, it reached number seven with Merrilee Rush in 1968, then became a million-selling number four hit for Juice Newton in 1981, the first country song to play on MTV. Shaggy sampled it for his 2001 hit “Angel.” It opened Deadpool. Nina Simone, Olivia Newton-John, and the Pretenders all recorded versions. The song simply refused to stop finding new audiences.

Taylor’s catalog extended well beyond those two landmarks. Janis Joplin opened her debut album with his “Try (Just a Little Bit Harder).” Linda Ronstadt popularized “I Can’t Let Go.” Willie Nelson recorded “He Sits at Your Table.” Frank Sinatra, Waylon Jennings, Emmylou Harris, and Marshall Crenshaw all covered his songs. He signed both Billy Vera and James Taylor as a staff writer at April-Blackwood Music, CBS’s publishing arm, and formed Rainy Day Records with Al Gorgoni in 1967, releasing the Flying Machine single that first introduced James Taylor to the world.

Between 1981 and 1995, Taylor walked away from music entirely to become a professional gambler, counting cards and betting horses until casinos banned him from their floors. He returned to music in 1995, launched his own Train Wreck Records in 2007, and spent the final decades of his career making intimate Americana records, often alongside singer-violinist Carrie Rodriguez. His 2012 album carried the title that said everything about his personality. His final album, ‘The Truth And Other Things’, came out in 2025. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2016, with his brother Jon Voight present to mark the occasion.

Taylor is survived by his children Kelly and Kristian, his grandchildren, his brother Jon Voight, and his brother Barry Voight. His wife Joan passed away in June 2025. He was 86 years old and had been writing songs since he was a teenager sitting in the Brill Building, certain that music was the only place he ever wanted to be.

Mumford & Sons And The Strokes Head A Stacked Sea.Hear.Now Festival Lineup In Asbury Park

0

Sea.Hear.Now is back, and the 2026 lineup is the strongest the Asbury Park festival has assembled. Mumford & Sons and The Strokes co-headline the two-day event on September 19 and 20 at North Beach and Bradley Park, with The Offspring, Goo Goo Dolls, Fontaines D.C., The War On Drugs, Moby, Chaka Khan, Pixies, The All-American Rejects, Ziggy Marley, Shaggy, Men At Work, and more than 25 artists total spread across three stages. A professional two-day surf contest, immersive art installations, and an onsite gallery round out the experience that has made this one of the most distinctive festival destinations on the East Coast since its 2018 launch.

Presale tickets go on Thursday, March 26 at 10am ET, with general on-sale following at 11am, but the announcement is direct: this is the best chance to secure tickets. When the presale sells out, it sells out.

Willie Nelson’s Outlaw Music Festival Tour Returns For Its Second Decade With Sheryl Crow, The Avett Brothers, Wilco, And More

Willie Nelson is hitting the road again, and every date counts. The 2026 Outlaw Music Festival Tour has been officially announced, kicking off July 3 in Irving, Texas and running through August with stops across the Midwest and Northeast. Now entering its second decade, the tour rolls out with Nelson headlining alongside rotating lineups featuring Sheryl Crow, The Avett Brothers, Wilco, Lukas Nelson, Margo Price, Stephen Wilson Jr., Sierra Hull, Robert Randolph, Don Was and the Pan-Detroit Ensemble, and Lily Meola. Billy Strings and Rodney Crowell join for the annual Fourth of July Picnic in Austin on July 4.

Rolling Stone called last year’s 10th anniversary run “undoubtedly the most exciting and eclectic multi-artist festival of the 2025 summer amphitheater season by a wide margin.” The 2026 edition builds on that foundation with a lineup that balances legendary names and essential voices in American roots music. “We don’t get to do as many shows as we used to, so every night out there means a little more,” Nelson said in the announcement.

Tickets go on sale to the general public March 27 at 10:00am local time. Citi card members have early access to presale tickets through March 26 at 10:00pm local time via the Citi Entertainment program.

0

Swedish glam rock trio Lipz have released a hard-hitting rock reimagining of Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up” via Frontiers Music Srl, stripping the pop classic down to its foundation and rebuilding it with roaring guitars and arena-sized energy while keeping the song’s signature melody completely intact. The result hits harder than it has any right to, and that is exactly the point.

Eagles Announce ‘The Long Goodbye, Act III’ Stadium Dates With Tedeschi Trucks Band As Don Henley Hints At The End

The Eagles have announced four stadium dates this May under the banner of ‘The Long Goodbye, Act III’, with GRAMMY Award-winning Tedeschi Trucks Band joining as special guests. The shows hit Atlanta, Nashville, Hollywood, Florida, and Arlington, Texas, following the band’s ongoing Sphere Las Vegas residency, now totaling 58 performances and counting as the longest residency in the venue’s history.

Don Henley, speaking with CBS Sunday Morning, offered the clearest indication yet that 2026 may mark the end of the road. “I think this year will probably be it,” he said. “We’re getting toward the end. And that will be fine, too.” With over 50 years of touring, more than 1,000 concerts worldwide, and 16 million tickets sold, the Eagles have earned the right to say that on their own terms.
