				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jarboe, former member of Swans, has announed a UK and European tour next year in May, which will include collaborations alongside multi-instrumentalist Thor Harris and vocalist/composer Joy Von Spain.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2026-001b-pwlogoblk.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-114170" src="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2026-001b-pwlogoblk-600x600.jpg" alt="2026-001b-pwlogoblk" width="600" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>Jarboe&#8217;s live sets will draw inspiration from her catalogue of industrial and experiemental sounds, allowing audiences to have an immersive experience. The performance will be a unique combination of ritual and raw emotion, showcasing different voices working in harmony.</p>
<p>The trio will debut two pieces from her upcoming album &#8216;<em>Sightings&#8217;</em>. The new album is inspired by mystical encounters with the natural world and will be released on April 3 next year.</p>
<p data-start="42" data-end="498">Jarboe first started in the music industry when she joined Swans, working alongside founder Michael Gira. Her presence helped change the band&#8217;s sound from pure noise rock to more melodic music, a transition that can be heard across albums like <em>&#8216;Children of God</em>&#8216;, and <em>&#8216;Soundtracks for the Blind&#8217;</em>. In Swans, she and Michael Gira released some of the most musically extreme recordings of their time.</p>
<p data-start="42" data-end="498">After the band disbanded, Jarboe launched a boundary-pushing solo career. Her first solo album &#8216;<em>Thirteen Masks</em>&#8216; was released, and was followed by solo and collaborative work that explored industrial, folk, and experiemental sounds. Her creative work ranges from visual art, to literature and theatre, making her an ever-evolving person in the arts.</p>
<p>Jarboe is one of the fiercest spirits in modern music and an intelligent artist who has rejected the stereotypes of the music industry to create powerful visions. One key thing that helps her in this is her one of a kind vocal talent, which ranges from emotive blues and gospel tones, to wild shrieking, which matches with her wide-ranging musical preferences, which range from industrial dance to atmospheric psych-folk.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Jarboe is a multi-disciplinary artist often being described as the &#8220;forward-thinking queen of unreality&#8221; and &#8220;the true and genuine Pythia of the American underground&#8221;.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The upcoming tour will bring together two big names in contemporary experimental music. Thor Harris is a multi-instrumentalist, sculptor, and writer. Best known for being the percussionist for Swans from 2010-2016, his career also includes contributions to bands like Shearwater (2001 &#8211; 2010), Bill Callahan, and Thor &amp; Friends. Joy Von Spain is a vocalist, keyboardist, and modern classical composer who is notably known as the vocalist for the experimental metal/doom band Eye of Nix.</p>
<p>Tickets for the upcoming tour can be bought on different websites depending on the show.</p>

<p><script src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js" async=""></script></p>
<p>The Darkness will also be joined with support from GRAMMY-winning and multi-platinum selling country rock band Brothers Osborne, as well as multi-million streamed rock band A.</p>
<p>When talking about the tour, lead singer Justin Hawkins said, &#8220;Powerful rock was designed to be played in huge rectangular buildings. Huge rectangular buildings were designed to house powerful rock bands. The Darkness are a powerful rock band and the arenas listed below are huge rectangular buildings. Except for the exception which proves the rule. Thank you O2 Arena…&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;In December 2026 this elegantly logical proposition will become a reality, driven by three bands consisting of seven brothers. Three of them are Perrys, from Lowestoft’s A. Two of them are Osbornes, from the Brothers Osborne. And two of them are my brother Dan and I. The Darkness, Brothers Osborne and A, veritable Bands of Brothers, rocking in a huge rectangular (or domed) building – what could be more powerful than that?&#8221;</p>
<p>Lead singer and guitarist of Brothers Osborne TJ Osborne also said, &#8220;There was cosmic ripple in the space time continuum that led to our paths crossing. Can’t wait to prove, once again, that brothers do it best and guitar solos are alive and well.&#8221;</p>
<div>
<p>The announcement of the UK shows follows on from the band&#8217;s eigth studio album &#8216;<em>Dreams On Toast&#8217;</em> which reached <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/12440/darkness/" target="_blank">number 2 in the UK Official Albums Chart earlier this year</a>. This album became their most successful album since their debut album &#8216;<em>Permission To Land&#8217;</em> which is the most successful British rock album of the 21st century.</p>
<p>The band launched their latest album to sold out shows across the country, which included their headline return to Wembley Arena, as well as on tour across Europe, Australia, and the USA, where the new songs proved to be instant fan favourites alongside their award-winning catalogue.</p>
<p>Ahead of their 2026 headline arena tour, The Darkness will also make their live return to Knebworth Park for a performance on July 11 with Iron Maiden.</p>

<p>Hilary Duff said, &#8220;It’s happening. I’m over the moon to be stepping on stage again. I’ve got some new songs that I can’t wait to share with you and of course some old favourites we can scream together. It’s been a minute and I’ve missed you. Let’s make some mems.&#8221; Her new single &#8216;Mature&#8217; marks her first new piece of music since 2015. The song looks at Hilary Duffs past years, combining witty and vulnerable lyrics.</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;Mature&#8217; is a conversation that my present self is having with my younger self&#8221;, she explained. &#8220;The two of us are reflecting on a past experience and sending love to each other. It’s a chuckle, a wink, and a sense of being grateful that we are sure footed in where we landed.&#8221;</p>

<p>The new music and tour dates come ahead of a new docuseries about Hilary, which follows the singer and actress as she makes her music return, and it looks at her personal journey, her time in the recording studio, her live show rehearsals, and more. The docuseries is directed and produced by Grammy-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director Sam Wrench, who was also behind &#8216;<em>Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour&#8217; </em>and &#8216;<em>A Nonsense Christmas With Sabrina Carpenter.</em>&#8216; More details about the expected release date will be shared soon.</p>
<p>Hilary rose to fame in the early 2000s with Disney&#8217;s <em>&#8216;Lizzie McGuire</em>&#8216;, and she gained a strong following in the UK. Her debut album &#8216;<em>Metamorphosis</em>&#8216; reached the UK Top 40, driven by singles such as &#8216;So Yesterday&#8217;. Following albums, including &#8216;<em>Hilary Duff&#8217;</em>, and &#8216;<em>Dignity</em>&#8216;, earned moderate UK chart success.</p>
<p>Hilary also stared in films such as &#8216;<em>A Cinderella Story&#8217;</em> and &#8216;<em>The Perfect Man&#8217;</em>, both which were popular with British audiences. After her hiatus, she returned to TV with <em>&#8216;Younger&#8217;</em> and music with &#8216;<em>Breath In. Breath Out</em>.&#8217; helping her to maintain a loyal UK fan base.</p>

<p><script src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js" async=""></script>He is an alt-pop and R&amp;B singer-songwriter based in South London, and has quickly become an exciting new artist to engage in the UK music scene.</p>
<p>Drawing inspiration from his Spanish background and cultural mix of London, he blends elements of flamenco, soul, and modern pop into a sound that feels cinematic.</p>
<p>His songwriting explores themes of love, heartbreak, and personal growth, as well as connecting with audiences who can relate to his honesty and storytelling.</p>
<p>His breakthrough came with singles such as &#8216;Daffodil&#8217;, &#8216;Truck&#8217; and &#8216;Sugar (Honey Ice Tea)&#8217;, each showcasing a different side to him, from soulful ballads to upbeat dance tracks, with his track &#8216;Sugar (Honey Ice Tea)&#8217; almost on 100k streams.</p>

<p>In terms of live performances, Marti Perramon&#8217;s growth over recent years has been impressive. He has performed at major showcases such as The Great Escape 2025, and has opened for different artists.</p>
<p>He opened for Alessia Cara around Europe earlier this year, helping him build his stage presence.</p>
<p>He is currently supporting Ben Ellis on tour around the UK and has been announced to support Arthur Hill around Europe in November this year.</p>
<p>These opportunities will allow him to grow his stage presence, as well as expand his fanbase and develop his reputation as an engaging live performer.</p>
<p>In August, he also did his first tour, with two solo shows in Manchester and London.</p>
<p>He has announced his own headline tour for 2026 called the <em>Boy From Barcelona Baby </em>Tour with four dates around the UK.</p>
<p>His tour will start 22 February in Glasgow at SWG3 Poetry Club and he will travel to Manchester and Bristol before finishing the tour in London on 26 February at Camden Assembly.</p>
<p>The tour announcement comes after he announced his new single &#8216;Peace Sign&#8217; which comes out tomorrow (23 October).</p>
