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.

Duets Special Album Tracklist:

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

02. Can’t Help Falling In Love (feat. Mark Lanegan)

03. Sway (feat. Lucinda Williams)

04. Dolphins (feat. Dave Gahan)

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.

FIND EL DORADO IS OUT NOW ON PARLOPHONE RECORDS

AND IS RADIO 2’s ‘RECORD OF THE WEEK’ NEXT WEEK

ORDER FIND EL DORADO HERE

Photo: Dean Chalkley

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.”

Shindig! 4/5 

Find El Dorado track list – and the artists that originally recorded them in brackets

1. Handouts in the Rain (Richie Havens)

2. Small Town Talk (Bobby Charles)

3. El Dorado (Eamon Friel)

4. White Line Fever (The Flying Burrito Brothers)

5. One Last Cold Kiss (Christy Moore)

12. Nobody’s Fool (The Kinks)

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.

HIT SINGLE “ORDINARY” IS CURRENTLY

#1 ON BILLBOARD HOT 100 (6th WEEK)

#1 AT TOP 40 & HOT AC RADIO

CRITICAL PRAISE FOR YOU’LL BE ALRIGHT, KID

“ the year’s biggest pop chart breakout so far…”

“[‘Ordinary’ is a] brooding ballad…which explores an extraordinary rush of romantic love and spiritual connection.”

 “Warren’s luminous voice and lit-from-within songcraft contribute to an unmistakable hit in which [Warren] seems able to leap from unutterable sadness to unmitigated joy.”

-VARIETY

“[‘On My Mind’ is a ] …somber, likable folk-pop sing-along…” 

“…[On ‘Burning Down’] Warren’s deep, husky voice frees himself from the blame of an unhealthy relationship over a stomping piano beat.”

-Billboard

 “…[a] catalogue of folk-tinged anthems…”

“…a continuation and more complete version of his Chapter 1 LP” 

-Rolling Stone

“[‘Ordinary’ is] A stark and brooding ballad”

“… combines the moody theatrics of early Sam Smith with the highly buffed textures of Imagine Dragons”

– LA Times

“Alex Warren is anything but ‘Ordinary’”

-SPIN

“..a soaring, sing-along chorus, and a knee-slapping backwoods rhythm, ‘Bloodline’ is a rousing slice of Americana riding the line between the late-aughts bluegrass breakout and today’s pop-country resurgence.” 

“Alex Warren & Rosé get lost in memories [on ‘On My Mind’]…nostalgic ballad about being unable to let go after a breakup.”

-UPROXX

(Los Angeles, CA) – Today, singer-songwriter Alex Warren releases his new album You’ll Be Alright, Kid via Atlantic Records – listen here.  Alongside the album, Alex Warren drops the music video for the highly anticipated song,“Eternity” – watch here.

The majority of the album is co-written by Alex Warren, Cal Shapiro, Mags Duval and produced by Adam Yaron. While You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) focuses on dealing with grief, You’ll Be Alright, Kid turns the page with healing, resilience and optimism.

Warren’s earth-shattering hit, “Ordinary,” was released in February to rave reviews, counting over 1 billion streams to date, and topping the charts. The smash hit spends its sixth week at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. “Ordinary”  also spent five weeks as #1 across the Global 200 and Global 200 Ex US. The single is currently #1 at Top 40 Radio, and Hot AC Radio, holds the largest US radio audience. “Ordinary” was not only Warren’s first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, but it also makes him the first male soloist to earn an initial Hot 100 #1 this year.

“Ordinary” also spent 12 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the UK chart. This marks the longest running No.1 in the UK by a US male solo act in OCC chart history and the longest running No. 1 of the 2020s. It recently returned to #1 for its 13th week. In Australia, “Ordinary” at its 16th week is officially the third longest running #1 single on the ARIA charts. This marks the longest running by a lead international act, and the second longest running #1 for this decade. Warren now tallies over 2.4 billion career streams to date.

Earlier this week, Alex Warren performed at BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge a cover of Hall and Oates “Rich Girl” and hit single “Ordinary.” Warren made his award show debut with a powerful performance at the 2025 American Music Awards – watch here. Earlier this year, Warren also made his late night debut with a performance of “Ordinary” on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon – watch here.

Robert Plant Announces Saving Grace, First Album Featuring New Band & Vocalist Suzi Dian Out September 26 on Nonesuch Records

Hear their rendition of Low’s “Everybody’s Song” now: LISTEN

Robert Plant announces the release of Saving Grace: the first album featuring a new band of distinguished players, which he calls “a song book of the lost and found.” Arriving September 26 on Nonesuch Records, the genesis of Saving Grace began during the lockdown in “The Shire,” when Plant’s customary wandering was all but forbidden. While his recent adventures have centred around Nashville, having reunited with Alison Krauss for 2021’s chart-topping, multi GRAMMY-nominated Raise The Roof, it was in the English countryside that Robert Plant connected closely to this diverse group of musicians, who through their own experiences had a shared lean towards his much-loved corners of evocative song. Together, Plant and Saving Grace – vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, cellist Barney Morse-Brown – have spent the past six years growing into a wide-ranging workshop of styles and personalities, weaving through time and circumstance with joy and abandon.

“We laugh a lot, really. I think that suits me. I like laughing,” Plant says. “You know, I can’t find any reason to be too serious about anything. I’m not jaded. The sweetness of the whole thing … These are sweet people and they are playing out all the stuff that they could never get out before. They have become unique stylists and together they seem to have landed in a most interesting place.”

Following his previous acclaimed releases on Nonesuch Records – 2014’s lullaby and… The Ceaseless Roar and 2017’s Carry Fire – Saving Grace brings yet another chapter of Robert Plant’s ceaseless roar into the daylight. Produced by Robert Plant and Saving Grace – and recorded between April 2019 and January 2025 in the Cotswolds and on the Welsh Borders – Saving Grace breathes fresh life into a collection of century-old music. A treasury of songs featured back in time by Memphis Minnie, Bob Mosley (Moby Grape), Blind Willie Johnson, The Low Anthem, Martha Scanlan, Sarah Siskind, and Mimi Parker and Alan Sparhawk’s Low.

Listen to Robert Plant and Saving Grace’s reimagined rendition of Low’s “Everybody’s Song,” out NOW.

After touring extensively across the UK and Europe in recent months and years, Robert Plant and Saving Grace will perform for the first time in the US this fall, with an initial run of a dozen North American shows announced today. Dates include NYC’s Brooklyn Paramount, Port Chester’s Capitol Theatre, Chicago’s The Vic, Los Angeles’ United Theater and more. Find the full list below, and tickets at robertplant.com/timetable.
