The tour will showcase Townsend’s new album ‘The Moth’ which includes 24 new songs, 2 of which have already been released. So far, Townsend has dropped ‘Enter the City’ and ‘Home at Night’ which are both accompanied by music videos that can be seen on YouTube. The deluxe album will be released via InsideOut on the 29^th of May.

During his North American tour in 2025, Townsend had told his followers that he would be taking a break from touring for the “foreseeable future”. Approximately a year later, he is ready to take on the stage, but he won’t be doing this quietly. ‘The Moth’ is one of his biggest and most anticipated projects to date. He hinted to its curation almost a decade ago as he told Vice in 2017 “(The Moth) It started out as just being a symphony, but then I was like, “I can’t get ten million bucks to just do a symphony.” I needed to make it like a musical, with orchestras and choirs.” When asked when it would happen, he stated “It’s gonna take so much and I don’t want to nickel-and-dime it. If it takes a year or two, I can do another DTP record.” For nearly 10 years, Townsend has invested money and time into making his concept a reality.

In the official press release, Townsend explained the meaning behind his latest project: “I’ve heard people say that The Moth feels like my “life’s work.” Maybe that’s true on some level, but it also represents a version of my life that no longer exists, partly because of what it took to make it, and partly because of the closure that came from creating it.”

For fans that plan on attending his shows, he tells them to “Expect something different. The set will change from night to night, but the idea is simple: a modern take on a one man band. Just me, the music, a stage full of weirdness, and the stories behind it all.” Although he has yet to announce a full orchestral production for ‘The Moth’ in its entirety, fans can expect to hear different tracks from ‘The Moth’ each night, as well as other works in his discography.

Tickets for the ‘Metamorphosis’ tour go on sale on the 8^th of May at 10am while presale starts on the 7^th of May. Further information regarding tour dates and tickets can be found on his website.

Newman has been on an incredible run over the last year with her rise to fame. Her debut single ‘Hairdresser’ dropped in March 2025 and initially went viral on TikTok before making the charts. Since then, the English singer-songwriter has been dropping tracks and released her first EP ‘SE9 Part 1’ in October. Her new album ‘SE9 Part 2’ will include the songs from part 1 with an additional 8 new songs. From the new tracks two have already been released being, ‘Woman I Am’ and ‘Walk’. The full album will be available to stream on the 29^th of May.

‘Woman I am’, her latest drop in the 14 track LP, is paired with a music video on YouTube which celebrates the unity of women. The caption on the video wrote ‘Over International Women’s Day we travelled the country meeting Skye’s fans. Here are some of the real women and stories.’

At only 22 years old, Newman has already released 8 music videos and will have 18 singles in her belt come May 29^th. In an interview with British Vogue, Newman discussed her rise to stardom stating “I wasn’t going to take no for an answer and I wasn’t ever going to give up. It had to work out. Music is everything to me.” Newman then explained the importance of writing about real life in her music noting that “you’ve got to face these issues, if we don’t well… that’s how we are going to keep fucking up the world.”

Her new album is available to pre-save on her website with an added bonus of behind-the-scenes videos. Presale tickets went live yesterday on the 29^th of April for O2 priority members and general sale will begin tomorrow on the 1^st of May.

The British star rose to fame early in her childhood, modelling for Vogue Italia at the age of ten. Then in 2012 she shifted to acting with her first role as Princess Sorokina in the movie Anna Karenina. She has since continued to model and act, only occasionally singing as a part of wider projects.

Delevingne took to Instagram to post her tour dates and said “Excited to announce my first ever headline shows!!!! Been locked in at rehearsals I can’t wait to play these shows.” She also stated “Music. It’s forever been my biggest fear and my greatest love. I Forgot and Out of my Head are the first peek inside my stream of consciousness over the last few years. I cannot quite believe we are finally here.”

Although an album hasn’t been released yet, Delevingne has shared teasers of her music confirming three new songs, being ‘I Forgot’, ‘Out of my Head’, and ‘CARA’. A snippet of ‘Out of my Head’ can be heard above on Delevingne’s Instagram, containing a series of obscure clips, potentially hinting at a future music video.

While modelling and acting have been her main focus over the years, Delevingne has dabbled in music before. She previously sang ‘I Feel Everything’ for her 2017 movie Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, which can be seen here on YouTube. As well as many other tracks, she also collaborated with her former partner St Vincent and featured on the song ‘Pills’. However, her singing hasn’t always been limited to features, as in 2024 she starred as Sally Bowles in ‘Cabaret’ in the west end where she showed off her vocal skills.

As of now an album name or release date is unclear, but her other songs can be listened to on Spotify and other streaming platforms. Presale for tickets will begin tomorrow on the 30^th of April while general sale will begin on the 1^st of May the following day. More details regarding her shows can be found here on her website.

‘The Afterparty’ releases on the 8^th of May featuring 9 new songs which she debuted at Coachella. Li has already given fans an insight into her new project, having released ‘Lucky Again’, ‘Sick Of Love’, and ‘Knife In The Heart’ previously. The three available songs from her new album are available to stream on major platforms including Spotify and Apple Music. While Li has yet to release any music videos for ‘The Afterparty’, an acoustic rendition of ‘Lucky Again’ can be seen on YouTube. Before returning to Coachella, she can be seen singing on the street, captioning the video “on our way back to the desert x.”

The album was co-produced with Björn Yttling, who has contributed to many of her other projects such as ‘EYEEYE’ and ‘I Never Learn’. This will be the singer-songwriter’s sixth studio album, only this time alongside a 17-piece string orchestra. In an interview with Vogue she explained her process, stating “I wanted to make something super maximalist, over the top, and use every instrument I’ve ever been curious about.”

Anticipation over the unreleased album came after Li’s listening party in Los Angeles where she stated, “it is my sixth album, and maybe my final.” With confirmation by Pitchfork, fans are preparing for this to potentially be her last album. Additionally, in her interview with Vogue, she claimed “I think it’s the final album in this incarnation of myself that started out as such a young person.” However, she reassured fans “I’ll keep making music, but is it as a solo artist, where you put so much out there? Or in another form,” hinting at a new era for herself.

The adorable interaction left countless fans stunned as no one could have predicted their favourite podcast host to prance around the stage set with Williams. Videos displaying the duo taking the stage rapidly began circulating on social media platforms, Instagram and TikTok. This instance is further accelerating excitement throughout fans for the remaining tour dates.

Not only was Williams joined by Hearon but critically acclaimed American rapper Tierra Whack. The pair whimsically took the stage and were later spotted dropping into Sweet 45, a beloved Philadelphia ice cream shop. The pair alongside close friends danced the evening away whilst simultaneously enjoying their ice creams.

‘Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party’ is Williams’ third studio album and it has simply taken the world by storm. Released in August of 2025, the record has birthed an entire new generation of Williams fans alongside the already existing dedicated fanbase. The 2025 record received significant critical acclaim accumulating four nominations for th 2026 Grammy Awards and four nominations at the 2026 Libera Awards. Due to its independent release the record marked a major milestone in Williams’ musical career and displays her unique depth as a lyricist.

Williams announced her worldwide tour in the November of 2025 following a cryptic number of teasers on her website earlier in the month. The tour dubbed “Good Dye young Presents: Hayley Williams At A Bachelorette Party” completely sold out all 43 of its dates in the US, UK and Europe within minutes. Countless fans critiqued the artists’ inability to recognise her on stardom as she seemingly booked rather small venues.

The appearance of both Hearon and Whack on the tour haven’t been the only celebrity sightings than fans have sat back and enjoyed. In Atlanta, Williams was joined by Josh Scogin of Norma Jean, The Chariot and ’68 Fame. Scogin joined Williams for a display that spoke volumes regarding Williams’ musical journey. At the Toronto stop of her tour, Williams was joined by Dallas Green of Alexisonfire.

Similarly to Hearon, Green joined Williams during the electrifying conclusion of ‘Parachute.’ The pair performed a raw rendition of the song displaying how deep the bond goes between the musicians.

Williams is set to hit the UK this June for her first ever solo shows the lineup up consists of

Unfortunately for fans everywhere, tickets to Willaims’ next shows are entirely sold out for the time being, including that of the UK leg. There may be a limited number of resale tickets appearing sparingly via Ticketmaster and verified resellers so keep your eyes peeled.

JVB bring to ‘HYPERYOUTH’ high energy, wit and charm, and an eternal credit to being a 90’s kid. The album is an unmistakable tribute to the rap/rock fusion of The Beastie Boys melded with modern hip-hop head-banger rhythms. Highly influenced by popular culture but still the same kids raised on Pokemon, video games, and the internet, JVB are throwing a party that never stops and everyone is invited – so long as you’re dancing.

‘HYPERYOUTH Afterparty‘ brings its beloved silly but endlessly feel good sound in 6 brand new tracks. Preceding the original 14-track compilation are new dance-inducing tracks ‘friends’, ‘push the pipe’, ‘how does it feel to be young’, ‘bustamove’, ‘i like this’, and ‘changes’. The new tracks elevate the album’s youthful spirit with their love of the dancefloor and JVB’s ode to never truly growing up.

“Nobody wants to dance anymore… let’s bring that life back into the culture.” – JVB say in interview with Kerrang.

The deluxe release is perfectly timed as JVB are soon to kick off their HYPERYOUTH world tour. The two will be bringing their high energy, high vibes, hard bars and Pokemon cards to stages all across the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe through 2026. Fans will also get to see support from various acts such as Joshua Raw, Chase USA and more as JVB bring their hyperactive music chaos to stages worldwide. The duo have expressed the timeless excitement of being onstage, and the gratitude for performing to an audience who are devoted to true cause: partying together to good, loud music.

“Prepare to dance, bounce, cry, sweat and make friends”, they say.

New Jersey based rock band, My Chemical Romance are bringing their theatrical rock opera stage show to the UK and Europe in 2026. The announcement of a stellar group of opening acts is only enhancing excitement among fans, take a look at the full list below!

The band are kicking off their long-anticipated return to the UK in Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium on June 30 before heading over to Glasgow’s Bellahouston Park on July 4. Finishing off their run of UK shows the band is set to play three nights at London’s Wembley stadium from July 8 to July 11. They will then travel to Florence, Italy to play Visarno Arena on July 15 before finalising in Madrid, Spain on July 18.

At long last the band has shared those who will be joining them on their UK and Europe run and it is a monumental crew. No strangers to choosing premier openers for their fans, My Chemical Romance typically make these musical decisions based upon their own diverse music tastes.

Kickstarting in Liverpool My Chemical Romance are joined by Echo & The Bunnymen, leading on from this on July 4 they are in good company with Idlewild in Glasgow’s Bellahouston park. For each one of their three Wembley shows they’ve hand picked three different artists. On the opening night, July 8 they are accompanied by Skunk Anansie followed by Joan Jett on July 10 and finally Sunny Day Real Estate on their closing night. In Florence, Italy attendees will witness an opening set from Interpol before the band has their curtain call in Madrid, Spain with a prelude from  Mogwai.

The band lovingly shared a poster via their Instagram with the new additions to their show with the caption: ‘We can’t wait to see all of you.”  Likewise, guys, likewise.

Back in September the legendary emo group cryptically teased UK shows. They shared a video to Instagram depicting an old school game show host telling viewers, “Our two fine contestants will help us learn who will be the next lucky country to win the grand prize of one nuclear winter.” Before exclaiming, “Congratulations, United Kingdom!” Following this there was cryptic imagery dotted around central London. Fans shared photos on X of a doll seen on stage in earlier shows popping up on screens at St Pancras tube station and billboards in Leicester Square. Not entirely sure what a ‘Nuclear winter’ is but it is definitely something not to miss!

The boys have also announced an equally invigorating gaggle of support acts for their 2026 North American shows. This includes Franz Ferdinand, Pierce the Veil, Iggy Pop, Babymetal, Jimmy Eat World, Mars Volta and The Breeders. Each individual show seems to be in for a wild ride.

The emo assembly are notorious for delivering heavenly live shows, complete with falsified live executions, an exploding clown and fully fledged acting performances from each band member. The band are set to stop touring in late 2026, but for now the best is simply yet to come.

Originally released in 2004, the album told the story of one man’s lost £1,000, but it was always about much more than that: love, miscommunication, paranoia, and working-class frustration, all filtered through Skinner’s deadpan delivery and brutally honest lyricism..

Speaking to Radio X Mike Skinner sounded apprehensively excited for the gigs:

“We’ve been looking for something bold to do with the live show, and we landed here: some tracks have never been played live, others haven’t surfaced in years.”

“It’s a new challenge to bring the whole journey to life on stage, but I have an incredible band and we always give everything every night. So I’m certain we’ll make finding out what happened to that thousand quid a party every night.”

Now, for the first time, the album’s full narrative will unfold on stage. It’s a bold move many of the songs, on man album featuring hits like ‘Dry Your Eyes’, ‘Fit But You Know It’ and ‘Blinded By The Lights.’ have either never been played live, or have long since left The Streets’ set lists.

The album is a moment in British history which can always be looked back on as Skinner defining an era. An album that captures his unique storytelling ability. This of course comes with a huge range of lyrics, which in typical Streets fashion, can vary incredibly line to line, and at times make little sense.

Aa playful instagram post Skinner posted a video of him in the studio rehearsing, captioned:

“you might be excited about me performing ‘a grand don’t come for free’ start to finish but i’ve got to learn the words!!. see you next year!”

When announcing the shows on social media, the band said, “We’re really looking forward to heading back out across the UK & Ireland next summer!”

“We’re headlining In It Together festival in Port Talbot and Splendour festival in Nottingham as well playing a run of our own shows. And we’re very excited about it all.”

Snow Patrol release their eighth studio album last year, ‘The Forest Is The Path’, which was their first record in six years.

In 2023, the band announced the bassist Paul Wilson and drummer Jonny Quinn had decided to leave Snow Patrol.

The news came after the band had celebrated 20 years since their breakout album was released, ‘The Final Straw’.

The band said, “We are heartbroken they have decided to leave us but we wish them nothing but happiness, success, joy, compassion and everything they want in all their future endeavours.”

Frontman Gary Lightbody said, “Nate, JMD and myself will continue with SP and there will be a new album next year but more news of that will come at an appropriate time.”

Snow Patrol was formed in Dundee in 1994 under the name Shrug, with an original line-up of Northern Ireland-born musicians Gary Lightbody, Mark McClelland and Michael Morrison.

After a brief period of performing under the name Polarbear, they change the name to Snow Patrol in 1997.

Jonny Quinn joined the band as a drummer in the same year. In 2005, Paul Wilson joined as the bassist.

The band’s big break came in the mid-2000s, with hits including ‘Run’ and ‘Chasing Cars’, which was crowned as the most played song of the 21st century on UK radio in 2019.

Gary Lightbody was almost amongst some of the artist who backed the open letter written by Ed Sheeran to the UK government which called for the implementation of immediate and long-term funding for music education.

The initiative highlighted five areas the government should focus on: music funding in schools, training for music teachers, funding for grassroots venues, music apprenticeships, and a diverse music curriculum.

Tickets for the tour are available for general sale on 10 October at 9am. Tickets will be available here.

UK T0ur Dates 2026:

June 20 – East Anglia, Thetford Forest

June 21 – Liverpool – Pier Head

July 3 – London – Crystal Palace Park

July 16 – Shropshire – Ludlow Castle

July 18 – Edinburgh – Edinburgh Castle

July 19 – N0ttingham – Splendour Festival

Over the past two nights, the band returned to London for shows at Wembley, which will now be followed by further shows in Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile, and Brazil.

While there are no more scheduled shows following their final ‘Live 25′ date in Brazil on 23 November, rumours have been going around that the Gallagher brothers could play Knebworth or the Etihad Stadium, due to the 30th anniversary of their landmark gigs at Knebworth and Maine Road being next year.

Liam Gallagher added to this speculation at their gig on 27 September when he said “See you next year” towards the end of their set.

Clips of the moment have got fans very excited, with many hoping for an official announcement soon. One fan said “If my only ever Oasis concert will be Knebworth 26, then so be it. Till the wheels fall off, Ticketmaster.”

Another fan said, “Good… but the ticket process needs to be better.” This comes after there were conversations around the Oasis 2025 reunion tour ticket sale when they launched an invitation only ballot for pre-sale tickets.

Furthermore, the band called out Ticketmaster for using dynamic pricing for their tickets, with fans being charged as much as £350 per ticket, which was around £200 more than had been advertised.

In a statement issued to PA Media, the band said: “It needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management.”

However, fans have pointed out on social media that the tease for 2026 might not be live dates and could be an album. Earlier this year, the band’s manager confirmed that there is no plan for anymore new music or anymore live shows on the reunion tour.

Their manager described the tour as, “very much the last time around” as well as saying that, “There’s no plan for any new music.”

Last year, the band shot down any rumours that they were planning to headline Knebworth in 2026, with the band taking to X saying “”Contrary to reports in some UK tabloid media today, Oasis will not be playing Knebworth Park in the future.”

Contrary to reports in some UK tabloid media today, Oasis will not be playing Knebworth Park in the future.
There are no plans for any further UK dates beyond the currently announced UK stadium tour.

— Oasis (@oasis) September 11, 2024

Liam also went online and teased a new Oasis album, describing the album as “SPIRITUAL”. He also claimed that he was “blown away” by new material written by Noel.

He then went back onto social media to post an update saying there was “no Oasis album in the making”, and his prior comments were something he did for “a laugh”.
