<p>As well as this, they have also announced select UK events for this year in November, in London, Nottingham and Kingston.</p>
<p>Any remaining tickets can be found <a href="https://live.umusic.com/5sos-uk?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAadxmeEP31qsBPdOYiwWLE760hDUPDF61VfMQ7pn8c9f5YFGLWa_v5STyAmxdA_aem_3j2Uzm10Gq7FXILYAl-Y5Q" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

<p>November 5 &#8211; Nottingham &#8211; The Palais</p>
<p>November 6 &#8211; Kingston &#8211; Circuit</p>
<p>As well as announcing the huge new tour dates for next year, last week they also shared a new single called &#8216;Telephone Busy&#8217; which will be on their new album.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/album/08VCKSJ3j5Cgvkq5DM0cH2?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>
<p>This song follows on from their other recent release &#8216;Boyband&#8217;. In keeping with the theme of the album, it will see them experiment with a more playful sound than what fans might be used to.</p>
<p>Earlier this month, 5 Seconds Of Summer also shared the official video for their lead single &#8216;NOT OK&#8217;, and was the first song of their highly anticipated sixth album. The record is also their first new music since 2022.</p>
<p>Since 2022, Luke Hemmings went on a solo tour, which saw him perform across the UK, Europe and North America last year, and guitarist Michael Clifford has released his debut solo single &#8216;Cool&#8217;.</p>
<p>Calum Hood also released solo material, following drummer Ashton Irwin&#8217;s record in 2020 &#8216;Superbloom&#8217;, and Luke Hemmings&#8217; album &#8216;<em>When Facing The Things We Turn Away From&#8217; </em>(released in 2021).</p>
<p>5SOS&#8217; debut self-titled album (released in 2014) <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/27225/5-seconds-of-summer/" target="_blank">topped the UK Albums Charts</a>, making them one of the few Australian acts to achieve this.</p>
<p>Albums following this including, &#8216;<em>Sounds Good Feels Good&#8217; </em>(released in 2015), &#8216;<em>Youngblood&#8217;</em> (released in 2018), &#8216;<em>Calm&#8217;</em> (released in 2020), and &#8216;<em>5S0S5&#8242;</em> (released in 2022), all entered the UK top five, with &#8216;<em>Youngblood&#8217;</em> earning multi-platinum certifications and the title track becoming a major UK hit.</p>
<p>The band has also sold out major UK venues, including London&#8217;s O2 Arena, and Wembley Arena, as well as performing at major UK festivals such as the Capital FM Summertime Ball.</p>
<p>Tickets are on sale now for their UK shows next year and can be purchased <a href="https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/5-seconds-of-summer-tickets/artist/1778118?irgwc=1&amp;afsrc=1&amp;utm_source=2862475-NME%20Networks%20Media%20Limited&amp;utm_medium=affiliate&amp;utm_campaign=2862475&amp;awtrc=&amp;camefrom=CFC_BUYAT_2862475&amp;ircid=24023&amp;clickId=1oZWA%3ARpSxycRB2wCi0MQT7oUkpUOl2-SzLeVQ0" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

<p>His breakthrough came in 2020 with the success of his single &#8216;Ode to a Conversation Stuck in Your Throat&#8217;. This success led to a record deal with Mom + Pop Music and the release of his self-titled debut album &#8216;<em>Del Water Gap</em>&#8216; in 2021.</p>
<p>Del Water Gap has previewed some of his new album with singles such as &#8216;How To Live&#8217;, &#8216;Marigolds&#8217; and &#8216;Damn&#8217;.</p>
<p>The new album follows from his 2023 release &#8216;<em>I Miss You Already + I Haven&#8217;t Left Yet&#8217;. </em>The album explores themes of love, addiction, self-discovery, and loneliness. The album was recorded and written in New York, Los Angeles and London, and the London sessions marked a point that increased his connection with the UK&#8217;s indie scene.</p>
<p>Del Water Gap has built a loyal UK following, performing sold-out shows in London, Manchester, and Glasgow, and receiving airplay on BBC Radio 1 and Radio 6 Music.</p>
<p>In 2024, he supported Niall Horan on &#8216;<em>The Show: Live On Tour&#8217;</em> across North America, the UK, and Ireland, where he performed at iconic venues such as Madison Square Garden and the London&#8217;s O2 Arena.</p>
<p>This summer, he performed at Reading &amp; Leeds festival, and played a sold-out show at London&#8217;s HERE at Outernet.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.squareonemagazine.co.uk/interviews/a-conversation-with-del-water-gap-at-reading" target="_blank">When talking about his time at Reading festival, he said</a>, &#8220;I&#8217;m at Reading Festival the first time in my life. I love it here It&#8217;s a beautiful day. I bought some wellies at Lidl. I had a great set. Lot of nice people there. Have some friends here today&#8221;</p>
<p>Last year, Del Water Gap teamed up with Holly Humberstone on the single &#8216;Cigarettes &amp; Wine&#8217;.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/4eAV1ZCliRotEcjzEbOWNW?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="https://www.squareonemagazine.co.uk/interviews/a-conversation-with-del-water-gap-at-reading" target="_blank">When describing his music, Del Water Gap said</a>, &#8220;I grew up really shy. And I think my music is about trying to find closeness in a world where sometimes it&#8217;s hard to find closeness.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m also a recovering cynic. I grew up with very cynical parents, but I think I&#8217;ve always inherently been a very hopeful person. So I think a lot of my music is about that perseverance and hope.&#8221;</p>
<p>His mix of heartfelt lyrics, magnetic stage presence, and genre-blending sound continues to position Del Water Gap as one of the most exciting voices in modern indie music.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Former Little Mix member Leigh-Anne has announced her debut album &#8216;<em>My Ego Told Me To&#8217;</em> and a UK tour for next year.</p>
<p>The album, which will be her first album release as a solo artist, will be released 20 February and is available to pre-order <a href="https://leigh-anne.lnk.to/MyEgoToldMeTo" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>She also released a new single this morning &#8216;Dead And Gone&#8217;, which follows from her previous singles &#8216;Been A Minute&#8217; and &#8216;Burning Up&#8217;.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/0Y4EoSgrwZdCsnvnIVoy05?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>

Versatile, rooted in reggae and my heritage, but stamped with pop. It’s personal and impossible to box in.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I wanted it to feel authentic, blending the genres I love with a sound that’s distinctly mine. It’s also a statement: standing by my art and doing it my way,&#8221; she continued saying, &#8220;These are songs I’ll be proud of in five, ten years, because they reflect exactly where I was.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You’ll hear my world in it, my daughters, my marriage, my fight for power, and the moment I embraced my fire side and said: no more. This is my show now.&#8221;</p>
<p>Alongside the news of her album, Leigh-Anne also announced the &#8216;<em>My Ego Told Me To</em>&#8216; Tour which will include dates around the UK next April.</p>

<p>&#8220;It’s been the most freeing experience watching my vision come to life,&#8221; she told us. &#8220;For the &#8216;Been a Minute&#8217; music video I wanted to create a space where everyone feels like they can be themselves unapologetically.&#8221;</p>

<p>She described the single as &#8220;the perfect way to introduce this new era.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It represents freedom, being fully in control and a sound that I feel needs to be heard and celebrated this summer. I didn’t lie when I said it’s the song of the summer, I dare you to try not to dance once you hear it.&#8221;</p>
<p>She also said that fans can expect to see a new side to her as she takes control over her career, &#8220;Everything done on my terms, taking more risks, worrying less about what people think and other people’s expectations of me. We’re coming to disrupt. No more miss nice girl…&#8221;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Luke Combs has announced a 2026 world tour, including stadium shows in UK.</p>
<p>The &#8216;<em>My Kinda Saturday Night&#8217;</em> tour will be played in North America and Europe from March to August next year.</p>
<p>The country star released his fifth studio album &#8216;<em>Fathers &amp; Sons</em>&#8216; last year.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/album/02GDaShX8vOw5tcak3OXow?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>
<p>The UK and Ireland shows on the tour will consist of three shows. He will perform at Slane Castle in County Meath on July 18, Edinburgh&#8217;s Murrayfield Stadium on July 25, and will finish at London&#8217;s Wembley Stadium on August 1.</p>

<p>Support for the shows will vary depending on the dates, but for the UK and Ireland shows will include The Script, The Teskey Brothers, Thomas Rhett, Ty Myers and The Castellows.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/luke-combs-announces-huge-2026-my-kinda-saturday-night-tour-including-uk-stadium-shows-3898713" target="_blank">When speaking about his upcoming tour, Luke Combs said</a>, &#8220;This year has been awesome. We’ve gotten to play some of the most iconic festivals in the world and promote country music in ways that it normally isn’t.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That said, while the festivals are awesome, there’s nothing like a headline show on a full tour with all of my fans. It’s hard to beat! I can’t wait for March 2026 for the &#8216;<em>My Kinda Saturday Night&#8217; </em>Tour. We’re going to eight different countries, bringing along a ton of great support, and by then will have a lot of new music to play.&#8221;</p>
<p>UK and Ireland 2026 Tour Dates:</p>
<p>July 18 &#8211; County Meath &#8211; Slane Castle</p>
<p>July 25 &#8211; Edinburgh &#8211; Murrayfield Stadium</p>
<p>August 1 &#8211; London &#8211; Wembley Stadium</p>
<p>Earlier this year, <a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/luke-combs-details-struggles-with-obscure-type-of-ocd-3845555" target="_blank">Luke Combs spoke about his experiences with a form of OCD</a> known as &#8216;pure O&#8217;, describing the thoughts as &#8220;intrusively violent&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s thoughts, essentially, that you don’t want to have,&#8221; Luke Combs explained.</p>
<p>&#8220;Then they cause you stress, and then you’re stressed out, and then the stress causes you to have more of the thoughts, and then you don’t understand why you’re having them, and you’re trying to get rid of them, but trying to get rid of them makes you have more of them.&#8221;</p>
<p>Luke Combs’ debut album &#8216;<em data-start="24" data-end="44">This One’s for You&#8217;</em> released in 2017 launched him to fame, featuring hit singles such as &#8216;Hurricane&#8217;.</p>
<p>The deluxe edition added &#8216;Beautiful Crazy&#8217;. The album became a multi-Platinum success in America and was certified <a href="https://musictalkers.com/latest-news/8298-luke-combs-debut-record-hits-gold-in-uk-after-memorable-performance-with-ed-sheeran" target="_blank">Gold in the UK</a> marking his breakthrough overseas.</p>
<p>Building on that momentum, Combs later sold out London’s O2 Arena on his 2023 world tour, cementing his reputation as one of country music’s biggest global stars and the first U.S. male country artist with two UK Gold albums.</p>

<p>The last time Louis Tomlinson toured was back in 2023-24 after the release of his album ‘<em>Faith in the Future’, </em>which came out in 2022 and <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/albums/louis-tomlinson-faith-in-the-future/" target="_blank">reached number 1 on the UK album charts</a>.</p>
<p>Louis’ last tour was his second solo tour and ran from May 2023 to June 2024, with nearly 100 shows in Europe including sold out nights at London’s O2 Arena.</p>
<p>The upcoming tour next year will take place in spring in the UK in late April and early May.</p>
<p>The UK leg of the tour will start April 24 at Manchester&#8217;s Co-op Live. Louis will then perform in Birmingham, Glasgow, Leeds, and Brighton, before finishing the tour with a show at London&#8217;s O2 Arena on May 3.</p>

<p>The record has been described by Louis as &#8220;The record I always deserved to make.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My bread and butter is my honesty. I genuinely wear my heart on my sleeve, and I hope it comes through in the music. I’m still learning and getting better as a singer and a songwriter. I find it impossible to be complacent; it’s not in my vocabulary. For the first time now, I’m allowing myself to be the artist I’d always hoped to be.&#8221;</p>

<p>Her career began to gain international attention in 2020 with the release of her debut single &#8216;Street by Street&#8217;.</p>
<p>The following year, she released her first EP, &#8216;<em>Typical of Me&#8217;, </em>which introduced audiences to her blend between classical and jazz influences.</p>
<p>She then released her debut album &#8216;<em>Everything I Know About Love&#8217;</em> in 2022, <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/albums/laufey-everything-i-know-about-love/" target="_blank">which reached number 5 in the UK charts</a>.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/album/777K2ytcKbDsX0AZ2y8CBS?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe> Her second album &#8216;<em>Bewitched&#8217;, </em>released in 2023, earned her a <a href="https://www.grammy.com/artists/laufey/54021" target="_blank">Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album</a>, making Laufey the youngest artist to ever win in that category.</p>
<p>Her album combined elements of jazz, classical, and pop in a way that resonated with the younger generation, and it got the <a href="https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/with-the-biggest-jazz-album-debut-in-spotify-history-awal-says-laufey-is-bringing-jazz-to-gen-z/" target="_blank">biggest debut for a jazz album in Spotify history</a>.</p>
<p>Laufey&#8217;s classical upbringing gives her music an orchestral feel, whilst jazz inspirations from Ella Fitzgerald add to her vocals and improvisational elements in her music.</p>
<p>Her admiration for pop singers such as Taylor Swift allows her to add emotional honesty to her songs through her songwriting and storytelling.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/album/1rpCHilZQkw84A3Y9czvMO?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>
<p>Her first ever performance in the UK was as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival in 2021.</p>
<p>Last year, she performed in the UK as part of her &#8216;<em>Bewitched&#8217;</em> Tour, which included sold-out shows in Glasgow, Manchester, and London.</p>
<p>She also headlined London&#8217;s Roundhouse and Royal Albert Hall.</p>
<p>She surprised fans with an i<a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/watch-laufey-impromptu-festive-performance-at-london-st-pancras-3823798" target="_blank">mpromptu performance last year in December at London&#8217;s St. Pancras Station</a>.</p>
<p>Fans online were buzzing with the impromptu performance, with comments such as &#8220;STOP OMG&#8221; and &#8220;WAIT THIS IS INSANE. FREE CONCERT&#8221; on posts from the event.</p>
<p>Earlier this year, Laufey released her third album &#8216;<em>A Matter Of Time</em>&#8216;. This album was inspired by her influences from country, Icelandic folk, and classical music.</p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/album/5rMOCuiWWbEBcHaKM69Hmv?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-testid="embed-iframe"></iframe></p>
<p>Her upcoming tour next year &#8216;<em>A Matter Of Time&#8217;</em> Tour comes after the release of this album.</p>
<p>The tour will start in Europe, before coming to the UK for two nights. She will perform at Manchester&#8217;s Co-op Live March 4, and London&#8217;s O2 Arena March 8.</p>
<p>Her two UK shows will be her biggest UK shows in her career so far.</p>
<p>Fans have been very excited by this tour announcement, commenting on the Instagram post, &#8220;I WILL BE THERE&#8221; and &#8220;LAUFEY AT THE O2 THIS IS HUGE EEEE!!&#8221;</p>
<p>2026 UK dates:</p>
<p>March 4 &#8211; Manchester &#8211; Co-op Live</p>
<p>March 8 &#8211; London &#8211; O2 Arena</p>

<p>His debut album &#8216;<em>Whenever You Need Somebody</em>&#8216; sold 15.2 million copies worldwide.</p>

<p>He also opened a pub with his friend called Mikkeller.</p>
<p>In 2016, he made a comeback and released his album &#8216;<em>50&#8242;</em>, which ended up being <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/29941/rick-astley/" target="_blank">his first number 1 album in 29 years</a>.</p>
