RIDE LONESOME TOUR NORTH AMERICAN LEG FINALE

Beck marks the final date of the North American leg of his critically lauded, commercial smash Ride Lonesome Tour with the stately new video for “Disappearing Act.” The latest song from Beck’s widely acclaimed Ride Lonesome album to receive a visual interpretation, “Disappearing Act” has been a nightly highlight of the tour, which winds down November 10 with a sold out show at Portland, Oregon’s Keller Auditorium.

Directed by Mikai Karl based on Beck’s original vision, “Disappearing Act” finds the delicate arpeggios of the Ride Lonesome album standout soundtracking an arresting montage of various iconography and architecture, funeral processions and rituals — all in striking black and white.

Since its late September opening, the North American Ride Lonesome Tour has translated the effusive acclaim for the album into an outpouring of appreciation for shows rated by many as among the most captivating of Beck’s career: The Boston Globe called the show “exquisite,” while Boston.com raved  “no other artist can weave as naturally from era to era in such a convincing and captivating way.” The Detroit Metro-Times reported “a masterful night” that “left the audience enchanted, armed with elaborate arrangements, incredible musicianship, and enough rarities to delight both the die-hards and the casually curious,” while The Minneapolis Star Tribune labelled the performance “elegantly orchestrated,” noting that “Beck’s personality, the depth of his material and the musicianship of his five excellent sidemen carried the long but rewarding evening.” The Daily Californian summed up most succinctly, “Trust in Beck, and he will deliver.”

Following the close of the 2026 North American leg of the Ride Lonesome Tour, Beck will join a star-studded cast featuring Queens of the Stone Age, St. Vincent, The Kills, Norah Jones, Bill Burr, “Weird Al” Yankovic and a host of others for Josh Homme & Friends: A Benefit for Core & The Sweet Stuff Foundation November 16th in Los Angeles. Beck will kick off 2027 with a February 20th appearance at the Centennial Park Summer Concert in Sydney, Australia before joining U2 as support for the first leg of their Carnaval de Luz Presents: The Greatest Show on Earth World Tour beginning February 23rd in Mexico City and running through March 27th in Buenos Aires.

BRYAN ADAMS: NEW ALBUM, HOW’S IT GOIN,’ OUT NOW

BRYAN ADAMS
RELEASES NEW ALBUM 

HOW’S IT GOIN’
PURCHASE / LISTEN HERE

“Having a subject matter close to his heart has made for one of Adams’ best and most inspired albums in years” – Classic Rock

“Adams hasn’t sounded this engaged and on-form for some time; a heartfelt, high-water mark of an album” – Record Collector

Bryan Adams has released his brand new album How’s It Goin’, a critically acclaimed collection of songs written as a musical love letter to his homeland Canada. The album is out now via BAD Records, available to purchase and stream here. 

Rooted in the people, places, landscapes and stories that have shaped the country, How’s It Goin’ sees Adams turn his songwriting and voice towards home. Drawing on Celtic folk, country and rock, the album explores a distinctly Canadian and Acadian musical landscape.

Among the album’s 13 tracks is the anthemic “51st State”, which has already been met with nightly standing ovations around the world. The album also features “The Ballad Of Terry Fox”, a tribute to heroic humanitarianism that appears in the soundtrack of the new documentary Run Terry Run. Another standout is “Lake Ontario”, which opens with a reference to one of North America’s Great Lakes before delivering a wry retort to those seeking to rename it. Through its lyrics, the song offers a pointed reflection on how distraction has become a form of currency in today’s world.

Through further songs including “Highway 16”, “The Bridge”, “When Canada Joined Newfoundland” and more, Adams maps the country’s vast landscapes, celebrates its citizens and the treasured characters throughout history. It basks in the humor, the resilience and the stories which make it the country that it is. It is Adams looking back at the place that helped shape him while discovering new ways to tell its stories.

How’s It Goin’ is available now on CD and LP, with the LP housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves, obi and shrink wrap. A special A4 hardback book edition is also available, featuring the album on CD, song lyrics and images connected to the stories and subjects explored across the record.

Metallica & Red Cross Rock Blood Donation Ahead of Upcoming CT Shows

Red Cross, Metallica rock blood donation ahead of upcoming CT shows

Fans can help save lives, get limited-edition merch for coming to give in November

Following the lifesaving success of the collaboration that kicked off last year, the American Red Cross and Metallica are once again joining forces to help patients in need with an exciting, three-day opportunity to give lifesaving blood ahead of their upcoming Connecticut shows. 

In celebration of the band’s upcoming concerts honoring Mohegan Sun Arena’s 25th Anniversary, members of the Metallica Family and eligible donors of all blood types ─ especially those with type O blood ─ are urged to make a difference by booking an appointment now to give blood Nov. 18 or Nov. 20-21, 2026, at the Red Cross x Metallica Blood Drive hosted by Mohegan Sun in the Uncas Ballroom.

All who come to give at these drives will get an exclusive Red Cross x Metallica T-shirt designed by Squindo, while supplies last. 

“This partnership demonstrates the incredible difference people can make when they come together for a meaningful cause,” said Richard Branigan, CEO, American Red Cross Connecticut and Rhode Island Region. “We look forward to welcoming donors to Mohegan Sun, celebrating the generosity of the Metallica Family and helping save lives through blood donation.”

“Metallica’s connection with its fans goes far beyond the stage, and we’re honored to host the continuation of their blood drive campaign that has collected tens of thousands of donations worldwide,” said Jeff Hamilton, President & General Manager of Mohegan Sun. “This is a unique opportunity to celebrate the excitement surrounding Metallica’s upcoming concerts while also supporting such an impactful cause. We encourage everyone to join us in making this a successful blood drive and a huge thanks goes out to the Red Cross and Metallica for the collaboration!”

The last two months of the year can be a challenge for many donors trying to juggle regular donation appointments with packed schedules full of seasonal activities and holiday planning. Now’s the chance to join our band and make a difference. 

Red Cross x Metallica Blood Drives at Mohegan Sun

Wed. Nov. 18, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Fri. Nov. 20, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Sat. Nov. 21, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Uncasville, CT 06382

To make an appointment visit rcblood.org/BleedMetallica, call 1-800-RED CROSS or download the Blood Donor App.  

Lifesaving Impact

Members of the Metallica Family have answered the call to help save lives since April 2025, when the Red Cross and Metallica teamed up to hold blood drives at select stops during the U.S. leg of the M72 Tour. The campaign quickly expanded nationwide, giving fans across the country a chance to participate as part of the Give Where You Live campaign. As a result, more than 25,000 blood donations were collected across the U.S. as part of the collaboration. The movement also went global ─ with the band encouraging blood donation at overseas stops along their M72 World Tour. About 93,000 total blood donations were collected worldwide.

How to donate blood

Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enable the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass® to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

BRYAN ADAMS: NEW SINGLE, “LAKE ONTARIO,” OUT NOW

BRYAN ADAMS
NEW SINGLE, “LAKE ONTARIO”, OUT NOW
WATCH THE VIDEO HERE
NEW STUDIO ALBUM, HOW’S IT GOIN, OUT NOVEMBER 6th
PRE-ORDER HERE

Today, Bryan Adams announces the release of “Lake Ontario”, the latest single from his forthcoming studio album How’s It Goin’, arriving November 6, 2026, via BAD Records.

“Lake Ontario” begins with the story of one of North America’s Great Lakes, laying the foundations for a wry retort to those who seek to re-name it. The lyrics tell their own direct story of how distraction has become currency in today’s world, but that in time, the name will remain the same now and forever.

“Empires and regimes, dictators and kings, they all come and go. Lake Ontario is forever. This is a song for all the sane people on both shores who know that the current madness will pass, and that Lake Ontario will always be Lake Ontario.” — Bryan Adams

The song is taken from Adams’ new studio album, How’s It Goin’, his musical love letter to Canada. Rooted in the people, places, landscapes and stories that have shaped the country, How’s It Goin’ sees Adams turn his songwriting and voice towards home. Drawing on Celtic folk and rock, the album explores a distinctly Canadian and Acadian musical landscape.

Among the album’s 13 songs are the anthemic “51st State,” which has already been receiving nighty standing ovations around the world, “Diesel and Dirt”, “Iron Ribbon”, “The Battle of Lundy’s Lane”, “The Ballad of Terry Fox” and the title track, “How’s It Goin’”, an energetic, acoustic-driven celebration of Canadian life.

At its heart, How’s It Goin’ is about Canada: it’s vast landscapes, the characters, the history, the humour, the resilience and the stories that make it the country that it is. It is Adams looking back at the place that helped shape him while discovering new ways to tell its stories.

The physical album features 12 songs and will also be released digitally (with “Lake Ontario” as the bonus track) and on CD and LP, with the LP housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves, obi and shrink wrap. A special A4 hardback book edition will also be available, featuring the album on CD, song lyrics and images connected to the stories and subjects explored across the record.

Find full lyrics for “Lake Ontario” below:

From glacial erosion – to indigenous care
From European exploration – to industrial wear and tear
The “lake of shining waters” is what the Iroquois called her
It’s a first nations name – not an executive order

But things weren’t going his way in Iran
So like a baby tossing the toys from the pram
He may have thought it best to throw a low blow
And create a real dog and pony show
But it feels like another distraction
While the Epstein files were getting traction
One day they’ll come out and we’ll say “there you go”
And then we’ll all dive into Lake Ontario

After centuries of trade and war
People settled down on the banks and shores
All rivalries and conflicts – had all but ceased
But it just took one dude to break that peace

But things weren’t going his way in Iran
So like a baby tossing the toys from the pram
He may have thought it best to throw a low blow
And create a real dog and pony show
But it feels like another distraction
While the Epstein files were getting traction
One day they’ll come out, and we’ll say “there you go”
And then we’ll all dive into Lake Ontario

HEADLINE SHOWS ANNOUNCED FOR LOS ANGELES AND NYC: TICKETS ON SALE NOW

Diana Silvers has announced her forthcoming sophomore album, Daughter of Sorts, out November 13th via Capitol Records. A luminous and unflinchingly personal collection of songs that are at once achingly intimate and quietly infinite, the album is an exquisitely rendered study of loss, grief, and the reckoning that is growing up.

Written by Diana and co-produced with Jason Lader, and recorded at the Houdini mansion in Laurel Canyon, Daughter of Sorts is that rare record that transports you to another place… through the singular sparkle in Diana’s voice and lyrics that feel carefully unearthed from the weight of lived experience, revealing extraordinary emotional landscapes hidden within ordinary moments.The album also features contributions from Fabrizio Moretti and Nicolai Fraiture (The Strokes), as well as Cole Preston and Dylan Minnette (Wallows).

Daughter of Sorts is available for preorder now: https://dianasilvers.lnk.to/daughterofsorts

Alongside the exciting news of her new album, Diana has released the double single “Daughter”/“Plans”, as well as the brilliant self-directed video for both songs––watch here.

To celebrate the release of Daughter of Sorts, Diana has confirmed two special headlining performances: November 17th at Dynasty Typewriter in Los Angeles, and December 1st at Pete’s Candy Store in Brooklyn, NY. Tickets are on sale now, grab them here: https://www.dianasilversofficial.com/tour-dates/

Diana on the making of Daughter of Sorts:

“As I listened back to ‘Daughter’ and ‘Plans,’ the first two songs Jason [Lader] and I made for this record, I realized there is this whole other side to growing up: Death. Grief is psychedelic, surreal, painful, confusing, and sometimes extraordinarily beautiful. It is infinite and finite all at once.What at first felt like a curse, had and has started to feel like a privilege. It is a privilege to be able to explore and express and understand the reckoning that is growing up, through music. It is a privilege to share my sophomore album, Daughter of Sorts.”

About Diana Silvers  
Diana Silvers has long been recognized as an acclaimed actress and model, but music has always been her truest form of expression. The California native grew up studying cello, making mix CDs, and learning guitar – all of which shaped her distinct artistic voice.

In 2025, Diana released her debut single “June,” a deeply personal track that landed her on Rolling Stone’s “Songs You Need to Know.” list. Its follow-up, “Airplane,” further showcased her cinematic storytelling and melodic warmth. Both served as the first glimpses of her debut album, From Another Room, which Variety described as “a nostalgic, thoughtful introduction to an artist with her heart on her sleeve.”

Diana made her live debut at Newport Folk Festival. She then hit the road supporting Jon Batiste on his 2025 North American tour, playing sold-out rooms across the country, and joined Fletcher in her hometown of Los Angeles.

Beck has unveiled a stunning new video of the first ever live performance of “Ride Lonesome,” the “instant classic” (PARADE) that opens his “drop dead gorgeous meditation on heartache and solitude” (NME) album of the same name.

Performed May 7th of this year at the Sydney Opera House, the live debut of “Ride Lonesome” finds Beck accompanied by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and live band mainstays Jason Falkner (on bass and vocals), Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (on piano and vocals) and James McAllister (drums). Buoyed by an otherworldly orchestral arrangement provided by Beck and his father David Campbell, and featuring conductor Nicholas Buc, “Ride Lonesome” with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra is nothing short of a revelation — one that brings new dimensions to the new classic Beck ballad NPR proclaimed “as moving and beautifully produced as any of his most beloved work.” 

The audio track was mixed by Tom Gelissen and mastered by Paul Hicks.

In other news, Beck has been confirmed as support for the launch of U2’s The Greatest Show on Earth World Tour 2027. Sharing a stage with the band for the first time since his stint on the 2017 Joshua Tree stadium tour, Beck will be featured on U2 shows in Mexico City, Sao Paulo and Buenos Aires running from late February to late March. For a full itinerary go HERE

Finally, Beck is currently in the midst of the Ride Lonesome tour, which has been making its way across North America, receiving uniformly warm welcomes to nightly assortments of material from the new album alongside hits and deep cuts from classic albums Morning Phase, Sea Change, Mutations, and more.

DANIELE LUPPI : NEW ALBUM, WILMA, OUT TODAY

WILMA, AN ODE TO THE LOST SOUNDS OF 1970s ITALIAN FILM
NEW ALBUM OUT DIGITALLY TODAY

VINYL ALBUM OUT NOVEMBER 13th PRE-ORDER HERE

“YOU COULD BE THE SUN, I COULD BE THE MOON ft. ORION SUN AND MICHAEL KIWANUKA” OUT NOW

“Daniele Luppi turns a trove of forgotten Italian film music into something new on Wilma”
– SPIN

“A damn fine tune”
– Consequence
on “To Some Degree (ft. Michael Kiwanuka)”

At long last, composer Daniele Luppi’s new album featuring Michael Kiwanuka and Orion Sun, Wilma is out now. The downright stunning LP is available digitally worldwide via Verve/slowplay HERE. The vinyl arrives in the physical world on November 13th and is available for pre-order HERE.

Featuring “You Could Be The Sun, I Could Be The Moon,” an inviting new song with both Michael Kiwanuka and Orion Sun trading deeply introspective and hopeful lyrics. Wilma’s grand finale, “You Could Be The Sun, I Could Be The Moon,” closes the album in alluring fashion, with Kiwanuka and Orion Sun’s tender soulful vocals floating above the warmth of a sublime orchestral arrangement. 

Daniele reflects on the song, “In my mind, the entire album slowly moves toward this song. It’s the culmination of both characters’ reflection, private wonderings, and unanswered questions finally becoming united. At first, it was entirely Michael’s song. But because I had such generous space to work with—the song runs for over five minutes—I suggested that Tiffany share the vocal duties, with subtle lyrical changes to clearly make it her point of view, intentionally different from Michael’s. The further the song progresses, the closer they become. That’s why I imagined them finally harmonizing at the very end, before everything closes with super-intimate, no-studio-effects, bare-naked vocals. It’s like waking up from a dream. That’s how I always wanted the album to end.”

Wilma is a golden-hued collection featuring vocal contributions from the Mercury Prize-winning Michael Kiwanuka and critics’ darling Orion Sun. Enrobed in a warm analog production and embellished by Luppi’s contemporary instrumentation, subtle effects and blending, Wilma combines timeless arrangements with modern flourishes, ultimately creating a transportive cinematic soundscape.

“mind-meltingly gorgeous melodies” – Pitchfork

“there are still few greater pleasures in pop music than hearing this one guy rock out… late-career masterpiece” – Rolling Stone

“how lucky we have been to live through McCartney’s genius… McCartney at what he does best” – USA Today

“McCartney’s best album of the 21st century” – Variety

“The Boys of Dungeon Lane is a joyous late-career reminder of McCartney’s melodic genius” – Daily Telegraph ★★★★★

Paul McCartney’s internationally acclaimed album The Boys of Dungeon Lane is released digitally as a Special Edition today, featuring four additional recordings including a new version of “Home To Us”, his celebrated duet with Ringo Starr, alongside three brand new songs.

The Special Edition release comes at a landmark moment for The Boys of Dungeon Lane. Released in May 2026, Paul’s first new solo album in over five years topped the global charts, with Top 5 debuts in more than a dozen countries – including Paul’s 24th UK #1 album across his extraordinary career as a solo artist, with Wings and as a member of The Beatles.

The album has also received widespread international critical acclaim and, in July, was named as one of the 12 prestigious Albums of the Year shortlisted for the 2026 Mercury Prize. The recognition marks Paul McCartney’s first-ever Mercury Prize nomination and sees The Boys of Dungeon Lane recognised alongside some of the most exciting and acclaimed artists and albums of the year.

The Special Edition will give fans four more recordings from the world of The Boys of Dungeon Lane, including a new version of “Home To Us,” bringing Paul and Ringo Starr together once again. The track is already one of the album’s most poignant moments, with the two surviving Beatles trading lyrics that carry the weight of their extraordinary shared history while remaining deeply personal and contemporary. The new “flip mix” sees their original parts in the song swapped with each other.

Alongside the new version of “Home To Us,” the Special Edition features three brand new songs, titled “City Fox,” “One Night Stand” and “Chelsea Boots,” offering fans the opportunity to discover more of the music created during the sessions. 

The Boys of Dungeon Lane (Special Edition) physical release, due December 9th, will feature stunning cover artwork adapted from a silkscreened collage by Kate Gibb, utilizing more than 100 images from Paul’s personal collection. The physical formats include a limited edition 2LP orange & blue marble vinyl featuring a zoetrope etching, and are available for pre-order HERE and are being released December 9th. The Boys of Dungeon Lane (Special Edition) will also be released on CD.

The Boys of Dungeon Lane turns the lens inward, with Paul revisiting the formative years that shaped not only his life, but the very foundations of modern popular culture. In a career defined by timeless storytelling and unforgettable characters, Paul tells the most personal story of all: his own.

The album is a collection of rare and revealing glimpses into memories never-before shared, alongside newly inspired love songs, from one of the most culturally significant figures of our time.

These extraordinary songs find Paul in a candid, vulnerable and deeply reflective mood, writing with rare openness about his childhood in post-war Liverpool, the resilience of his parents, and early adventures shared with George Harrison and John Lennon long before the world had ever heard of Beatlemania.

The album takes its title from one of its standout tracks, “Days We Left Behind,” a stripped-back and deeply intimate song that captures the emotional core of the project. Dungeon Lane is a place Paul still sees when returning home, serving as a symbolic gateway to a pre-fame world: afternoons by the Mersey, birdwatching book in hand, “smoky bars and cheap guitars”, and dreams not yet lived.

Speaking about “Days We Left Behind,” Paul said:

“This is very much a memory song for me. The album title, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, comes from a lyric in this track. I was thinking just that, about the days I left behind and I do often wonder if I’m just writing about the past but then I think how can you write about anything else? It’s just a lot of memories of Liverpool. It involves a bit in the middle about John and Forthlin Road which is the street I used to live in. Dungeon Lane is near there. I used to live in a place called Speke which is quite working class. We didn’t have much at all but it didn’t matter because all the people were great and you didn’t notice you didn’t have much.”

Since its release, The Boys of Dungeon Lane has continued to connect with audiences in an especially personal way. Paul has personally hosted a series of exclusive album playback events, giving fans the opportunity to hear the album in full and experience the stories, memories and music at its heart in an intimate setting.

A world without Paul McCartney is impossible to imagine, yet The Boys of Dungeon Lane takes listeners to a world that existed before everything changed, offering memories never previously shared and revealing, with extraordinary honesty, the human story behind a global icon.

Now, as the album continues its remarkable journey from chart-topping success to Mercury Prize recognition, the story of The Boys of Dungeon Lane continues with four more songs.

This is the story before THE story. And there is still more to tell.

METALLICA: SPHERE RESIDENCY HAS TRIUMPHANT FIRST WEEKEND

METALLICA 
LIFE BURNS FASTER 
TRIUMPHANT FIRST NO REPEAT WEEKEND 
M72 WORLD TOUR TO RESUME IN 2027

“Nearly five decades in, Metallica didn’t need Sphere to make their music feel current. Over two hours, the songs prove they exist in a space that is completely timeless.”– THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

“Metallica bet on long odds and cashed out, big-time… this was a show that starts organically and is rooted in pure musicianship”-LAS VEGAS REVIEW JOURNAL

“Sequencing the first Sphere shows would be a global statement, and the band played stellar ones on Thursday and Saturday… Two perfectly tuned sets, retrofitted for this decadent monolith.”– LOS ANGELES TIMES

“Metallica knocked it out of the park… The two nights fit together like two halves of the same musical experience”– MERCURY NEWS

“Metallica seemed bigger than usual on Thursday night, when they kicked off their Life Burns Faster residency… jaw-dropping visuals… an immersive, almost 3-D experience for fans… a joyous experience”– ROLLING STONE

“Four men at the center of a room-sized visual machine, with decades of Metallica history compressed into one enormous, deafening moment… Opening night suggested that the band can make the place feel vast without surrendering the physical force of a live rock show.”– SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

“Metallica roared with rawness and technical purity… their commitment to their fans is evident in the band’s taut musicianship and this visually arresting Sphere show.”– USA TODAY

The first No Repeat Weekend of Metallica’s 24-show Life Burns Faster residency at Sphere in Las Vegas is in the books. Against a backdrop of mesmerizing and immersive bespoke production and visuals, the band powered through some 30 songs over the course of October 1 and 3, with surprise highlights including the first live performance of “…And Justice for All” since 2014, the first airing of “Devil’s Dance” since 2008, the return of “The Outlaw Torn,” absent from the live set since 2019, and more. An ecstatic crowd of nearly 40,000 joined James, Lars, Kirk and Robert on a two-night journey featuring two completely different set lists and two entirely different arrays of visuals, making each night a unique experience that brought mind-blowing new dimensions to classics and deep cuts spanning the vast Metallica catalog.

Life Burns Faster at Sphere reaffirms Metallica’s historical standing at the vanguard of new and unique live experiences, one that has seen the band play to millions of fans across all seven continents in every shape and size of venue imaginable. The ongoing M72 World Tour has played to more than 5 million fans since its 2023 kick-off, its 99 shows across 26 countries hailed as among the best of the band’s 40+ year history—and continuing to break attendance records spanning the globe.

Following the March 11-13, 2027 finale of Life Burns Faster, M72 will make its anxiously awaited return to North America — Nearly 700,000 tickets were sold in one week for the upcoming series of 12 stadium dates in cities the M72 tour will be visiting for the first time.
