Today, Ed Sheeran releases his brand-new album Play (listen here). To celebrate the release, he has dropped the official video for his new single “Camera”, starring Phoebe Dynevor (watch here).

Ed Sheeran’s epic new single “Camera” — co-produced by ILYA (Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello), Andrew Watt (Post Malone) and Louis Bell (Justin Bieber)— reinforces Sheeran’s mastery of balladry and lyrical depth. Inspired by his wife Cherry, the track exudes reverence and serves as a celebration of deep connection. Directed by longtime collaborator Emil Nava, the official music video – starring Sheeran alongside Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor – portrays the early stages of a romantic relationship. Shot entirely on iPhone from the characters’ perspectives, the video depicts the raw spontaneity and thrill of new love as they explore Croatia’s picturesque Old Town, cruise on a moped, bar-hop into the night, and even share the stage at one of Sheeran’s stadium shows.

Today, Ed Sheeran releases his new album, Play. After closing the chapter on his Mathematics series, Sheeran is stepping boldly into a fresh new phase for 2025. An artist who is constantly evolving, Play finds Sheeran exploring new musical ground through collaboration with producers and musicians from across the globe, as well as diving deeper into the timeless sounds and themes that have made him one of the world’s best-loved pop artists. Inspired in part by his exposure to Indian and Persian musical cultures – and their surprising connections to the Irish folk tradition he grew up with through shared scales, rhythms, and melodies – he has explored a borderless musical language that has given the album a fresh, distinctive edge. On more familiar ground, Sheeran reminds us why he remains one of the most influential singer-songwriters of his generation, as he delivers a series of tracks that speak to his wholehearted balladry. The result is a collection that plays with both the familiar and new, creating an exciting bold, pop-driven sound that feels transformative.  

Tonight, Friday 12 September at 5pm BST, Ed Sheeran will head to NPR’s offices for a special live-streamed Tiny Desk performance, where he’ll play a selection of new music on his loop station in the first-ever live-streamed Tiny Desk concert of this scale. Fans can tune in here.

Hand Me Downs artwork

August 22, 2025 – Continuing their momentous past year, rising Irish folk trio Amble return with new single “Hand Me Downs,” the title track off their forthcoming EP, arriving September 29th on Warner Records. Listen HERE and pre-save the EP HERE.

The announcement arrives as Amble is in the midst of a prolific run following their debut album, Reverie, which earned acclaim from the likes of NPR, Stereogum, Rolling Stone, and more. Upon its release earlier this summer, the record clinched #1 on Ireland’s Official Albums Chart for 4 weeks, marking the biggest Irish debut since 2019. This morning, in addition to announcing a forthcoming EP, the band also proclaimed three new shows – SSE Arena, Belfast on 10th December 2025, 3Arena, Dublin on 11th December 2025 and Virgin Media Park, Cork on 26th June 2026. More information on that HERE. This is in addition to their previously announced sold-out 3Arena Dublin show on December 4th 2025. Fans can also see them perform live at this year’s Electric Picnic, next weekend in Stradbally.

Amble’s meteoric rise is a testament to their dedication: the trio — Robbie Cunningham, Ross McNerney (mandolin/bouzouki), and Oisin McCaffrey (vocals/guitar) — only formed in late 2022 after quitting their day jobs as school teachers and a data scientist in rural Western Ireland. In just over two years, their captivating energy, descriptive storytelling, and heartfelt lyrics have cultivated a passionate global fanbase, translating into more than 115 million streams and 100K headline tickets sold in 2025.

The forthcoming 4-track EP came to life alongside producer Philip Weinrobe, known for his collaborations with artists like Big Thief’s Adrienne Lenker, marking the first time Amble has opened up their creative process to an outside producer. Staying true to their roots, the band performed and sang every song live together, with room microphones capturing the magic.

Amble’s captivating live performances continue to enrapture audiences worldwide. On September 3rd, they will kick off the second North American leg of their extensive sold-out world headline tour, including two nights at Irving Plaza in New York and El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles. This year has also seen them on the festival circuit at Boston Calling, Electric Picnic, and Austin City Limits, in addition to supporting Hozier on his North American arena tour. See a full list of upcoming shows below and at www.ambleofficial.com.

DEFTONES 10TH STUDIO ALBUM ‘PRIVATE MUSIC’ OUT NOW

DEFTONES’ ANTICIPATED 10TH STUDIO ALBUM PRIVATE MUSIC OUT NOW VIA REPRISE / WARNER RECORDS

LISTEN HERE 

6TH ANNUAL DIA DE LOS DEFTONES FESTIVAL SET FOR NOVEMBER 1, 2025 AT PETCO PARK IN SAN DIEGO, CA

REMAINING TICKETS AVAILABLE

August 22, 2025 (Los Angeles, CA) – Multi-platinum GRAMMY® Award-winning Sacramento band Deftones present their anxiously awaited 10th full-length studio album,private music, available today via Reprise/Warner Records. Listen HERE.

Check out the full tracklisting below.

Earlier this month, the group preceded its release with the song “milk of the madonna” and prior to that, set the stage for private music with the lead single and album opener “my mind is a mountain” – both of which were met with widespread critical praise and fan fervor. The latter has already generated upwards of 25 million streams globally and bowed at #1 on the Billboard Hot Hard Rock Songs Chart, earning one of their best song debuts to date.

Across nine prior studio albums, Deftones have carved out an unmistakable sonic identity. Now, they return with one of the most focused statements of their career: private music. Joining the band’s creative core of Chino Moreno, Stephen Carpenter, Abe Cunningham and Frank Delgado as well as newly inducted bassist Fred Sablan, is producer Nick Raskulinecz, who previously worked on 2010’s Diamond Eyes and 2012’s Koi No Yokan.The result is a lean, masterfully paced 11-song set that plays like a new Deftones benchmark. Meditating on the beauty and peril of nature, the challenge of cultivating a positive mindset and visions of a journey beyond the physical realm, private music showcases Deftones at their most evolved.

Alongside the record’s arrival, they embark on the latest leg of their sold-out North American headline tour produced by Live Nation, beginning with a show at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC tonight. The latest round of dates continues in arenas across Canada and the United States, including Rocket Arena in Cleveland, OH on September 10th and Ball Arena in Denver, CO on September 15th. This second leg comes to a close on September 17th at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, MO. Deftones welcome Phantogram and IDLES as direct support on select dates.The Barbarians of California will open for all dates.

Following the tour, the band’s sixth annual Dia De Los DeftonesFestival returns toPetco Park in San Diego, CA on Saturday,November 1st 2025. Deftones not only top the bill as the headliner, but they have also handpicked its diverse lineup once again, featuring Clipse, 2Hollis, Rico Nasty, Deafheaven, Régulo Caro, Ecca Vandal, Glare, and University.

CHRISSIE HYNDE & PALS ANNOUNCE NEW STUDIO ALBUM ‘DUETS SPECIAL’ OUT OCT 17TH FEAT DEBBIE HARRY, MARK LANEGAN, RUFUS WAINWRIGHT AND MORE

Chrissie Hynde & Pals Announce New Studio Album

Featuring collaborations with k.d. lang, Mark Lanegan, Lucinda Williams, Dave Gahan, Cat Power, Rufus Wainwright, Carleen Anderson, Brandon Flowers, Julian Lennon, Debbie Harry, Alan Sparhawk, Shirley Manson, Dan Auerbach

Celebrated music icon Chrissie Hynde has announced a new album under ‘Chrissie Hynde & Pals’, titled Duets Special, due for release on 17th October via Parlophone. The album consists of 13 extraordinary duets featuring a host of world-class collaborators including k.d. lang, the late Mark Lanegan, Dave Gahan, Cat Power, Brandon Flowers, Debbie Harry, Shirley Manson, Alan Sparhawk and more. The first single ‘Always On My Mind’ featuring Rufus Wainwright, is released today – listen HERE.

Speaking about the origins of the Duets Special album and ‘Always On My Mind’, Chrissie says: “I never thought about doing a Duets album before. I think the idea came about in 2023. I was talking to Jörn, Rufus Wainwright’s husband, on the phone. I think we were recommending novels to each other and for some reason I said hey, maybe Rufus and I should do something, and quickly scribbled out 10 songs off the top of my head. So Jörn asked Rufus, who was up for it, and that’s how it started. A spontaneous and what I thought would be a fun thing.”

The artists that perform with Chrissie Hynde on Duets Special celebrate 13 uniquely distinct voices through stripped down, intimate arrangements and minimal, refined instrumentation. The theme connecting all of the songs is simply, great melodies.

Duets Special isn’t just Chrissie Hynde’s fourth studio album under her own name. The new record presents an exciting and unexpected left turn amidst one of the most creative chapters of Chrissie Hynde’s career. Duets Special closely follows The Pretenders’ latest studio album Relentless – described as “at their melodic best” by The Guardian. The world tour that followed also created a new live record, Kick ’em Where It Hurts. When Chrissie performed at the Mark Lanegan 60 Celebration Concert at the Roundhouse last year, The Times suggested Chrissie’s voice “should have Unesco world heritage status by now.”

Outside of the studio, painting has become an inseparable part of Hynde’s creative life. In the last seven years, her artwork has been exhibited to acclaim in London, New York and Massachusetts. It has also graced the sleeve of her 2019 album of cover versions Valve Bone Woe, as motifs on garments in Vivienne Westwood’s Spring-Summer 2021 collection, and most recently through a new exhibition of paintings titled Hynde Sight. The latest installment, Hynde Sight II is currently open at Harvey & Woodd, Edinburgh until 23 August www.chrissiehynde.art.

01. Me & Mrs Jones (feat. k.d. lang)

BIFFY CLYRO SHARE THE NEW SINGLE ‘HUNTING SEASON’ OUT NOW.

BIFFY CLYRO SHARE THE NEW SINGLE ‘HUNTING SEASON’ – LISTEN HERE

FROM THE NEW ALBUM ‘FUTIQUE’ COMING SEPTEMBER 26TH – PRE-ORDER HERE

UK AND EUROPEAN HEADLINE TOUR STARTS IN JANUARY

 

       

 

A new chapter in the Biffy Clyro story is rapidly gathering momentum ahead of the September 26th release of their eagerly anticipated new album ‘Futique’. Its first single ‘A Little Love’ is still riding high on the Radio 1 A-list, and has featured at the band’s big festival moments at Glastonbury and Radio 1’s Big Weekend as well as at headline sets at TRNSMT and Eden Sessions. Amplifying that flying start, Biffy Clyro now share the follow-up ‘Hunting Season’ which premiered as Radio 1’s Hottest Record. An accompanying video for ‘Hunting Season’ will follow this Friday.

‘Hunting Season’ erupts in a flurry of ragged, punk-tinged riffs with Simon Neil’s snarled vocals harking back to their early days. Yet there’s a twist in the tale as that aggression gives way to the kind of sublime and super-instant hook that has made them arena and festival-headlining mainstays, before exploding into a hefty, post-hardcore finale.

Simon explains, “‘Hunting Season’ is saying, ‘I don’t know if I can judge myself through the eyes of someone else.’  It’s hard enough to know who you are and what matters to you, but if you’re worrying too much about how other people are seeing you then you don’t stand a chance. I feel like we’re all judged so much by people in the outside world who don’t know anything about us and that can be really scary.”

That idea of blocking out external influences from social media and remaining true to yourself fits neatly into the broader themes infused in the ‘Futique’ album. Playing on the realisation that our perceptions of memory have shifted during the digital era, it poses an existential thought: what are the things that we cherish now that we will miss in the future?

Available to pre-order HERE, ‘Futique’ was primarily recorded during sessions at Berlin’s hallowed Hansa Studios with producer Jonathan Gilmore, followed by shorter stints in Oxford and London.

Biffy Clyro recently announced a 2026 headline tour in support of ‘Futique’, which features arena dates in the UK and Ireland before heading across Europe. Tickets for the shows, listed below, go on general sale HERE tomorrow (Thursday, July 31st) at 10am BST / 11am CET. The UK and Ireland dates feature special guests Soft Play and The Armed.

Paul Weller’s hotly anticipated new album Find El Dorado is out now on Parlophone Records. A reflective and soul-stirring collection, the album finds Weller reinterpreting a carefully chosen set of songs that have long held deep personal meaning. Rich with emotion, texture and a sense of timelessness, Find El Dorado offers a rare glimpse into the musical inspirations that shaped one of Britain’s most enduring and influential artists.

 

More than a covers album, Find El Dorado is a deeply considered body of work, featuring contributions from an eclectic cast of collaborators including Robert Plant, Noel Gallagher, Hannah Peel, Seckou Keita, Amelia Coburn and Declan O’Rourke. From the haunting melancholy of “Pinball”, originally by Brian Protheroe, to the shimmering beauty of “I Started a Joke”: an early cut from the Bee Gees, Weller brings new life to every track with care, nuance, and unmistakable style.

 

Find El Dorado, which also marks Weller’s return to Parlophone, his label home from 2015 to 2019, finds Paul at his most reflective, offering listeners a rare glimpse into the music that made him, and a reminder that great songs never age, they just evolve.

 

“Album of the Month”

MOJO 4/5

 

“Wistful, melancholic… An unusual covers album with a mood of lived-in charm.”

The Times 4/5

 

“A generous affair, in the way he shines a light on lesser known songs and artists. A very personal set of songs.”

Uncut 8/10

 

“A fully formed artistic statement, reaffirming Weller’s place as a restlessly creative interpreter of song.”

Clash 8/10

“A suitably reflective affair…  the sound of an artist with nothing to prove.”

His breakout hit “Caroline” (2022) took the internet by storm, and he has since released a series of EPs and singles, climbing to over 400 million monthly streams across platforms. Now based in Los Angeles, sombr continues to explore young romance and heartbreak through his music—all of which is self-written and co-produced by the artist himself, and released via Warner Records.
