The Queen of Pop Madonna is enjoying a musical resurgence this year, building up to the release of her 15th studio album ‘Confessions II’ at the start of July. Marking her first album since 2019’s ‘Madame X’, the US icon is bringing the album’s premiere to a one-off Club Confessions: London event to celebrate its launch.
Her 2026 LP is the follow up to 2005’s ‘Confessions on a Dance Floor’, which saw Madonna blend both retro and modern dance music with electropop for singles including ‘Hung Up’, ‘Sorry’ and ‘Get Together’. At the time it was regarded as a fine return to form for the singer who defined so much of the sound and fashion of the ‘80s, scooping up the 2007 Grammy for Best Electronic/Dance Album.
Much like the original, ‘Confessions II’ has been co-written and co-produced by British artist Stuart Price. Companion piece Confessions II: The Film premiered on the 5th of June and is now available on Youtube – the 14 minute-long movie showcased 6 songs from the album with a cast of stars including footballer Cole Palmer, actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Richard E. Grant, as well as current pop trend-setter Sabrina Carpenter who appears on lead single ‘Bring Your Love’. The full 16 tracks for ‘Confessions II’ looks like this:
1. I Feel So Free
2. Good for the Soul
3. One Step Away
4. Bring Your Love (with Sabrina Carpenter)
5. Danceteria
6. Read My Lips (with Feid)
7. Everything
8. Love Sensation
9. Love Without Words
10. Bizarre
11. School
12. Fragile
13. My Sins Are My Saviour
14. Betrayal
15. The Test
16. L.E.S. Girl
Madonna announced the Club Confessions: London event today on her official website – so far all that’s known about the event itself is that it will be held at an unconfirmed venue in London on Thursday the 2nd of July, the day before ‘Confessions II’ releases worldwide. NME report that Stuart Price will be performing as a DJ on the night, and other guests will make appearance – however there is no confirmation whether Madonna herself will be in attendance. She did appear at a secret Club Confessions event in Los Angeles in April, where new material made its public debut.
‘Confessions II’ releases on Friday the 3rd of July through Warner Records. Pre-orders before 12pm on the 25th of June give access to the ticket sale for the Club Confessions: London night, which opens at 5pm the same day. Click here for terms and information on the ticket sale.
