Beck To Release First Album Since 2010

U2 will return to stadiums in 2027 with a new album, *Carnaval De Luz*, their first collection of new songs since 2017's *Songs Of Experience*. The band have also marked their 50th anniversary with new music, surprise performances in Dublin and a return to the road.

The Strokes will return to Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney in February 2027, with their Centennial Park performance launching a new concert series featuring Beck, Courtney Barnett and Promiseland.

Beck will release his first collection of new original material since the Grammy-winning ‘Hyperspace’ with ‘Ride Lonesome’, a new album recorded with key collaborators from ‘Sea Change’, ‘Morning Phase’ and ‘Mutations’. The album is set for release on September 18 via Capitol Records, with new song “In The Night” now available.

Thirty years after its release, Beck's Odelay remains one of the defining albums of the 1990s, a record that fused hip-hop production, folk, rock, electronic music and pop into a sound that reshaped alternative music.

Beck opened his 2026 Australian tour at Melbourne's Palais Theatre with a two-hour orchestral performance that reimagined material from across his catalogue, before pivoting into a looser encore set with longtime collaborators including Jason Falkner of Jellyfish.

Beck has unveiled a new video for Ride Lonesome while preparing to bring his orchestral live experience to Australia in May 2026, with performances in Sydney and Melbourne.

Beck will bring his acclaimed orchestral performances to Australia for the first time, with the artist set to perform a series of special concerts in Sydney and Melbourne reimagining songs from across his celebrated catalogue.
