Chrissie Hynde has unveiled the brand-new video for her duet with k.d. lang on the soul classic Me & Mrs Jones.

September 7 has witnessed landmark music moments, from chart-topping singles to the loss of a modern rap icon. On this date, The Beatles continued their record-breaking chart streaks, Elton John scored worldwide acclaim, and Nirvana released a track that helped define a generation. The day also marks the birthdays of Buddy Holly and Chrissie Hynde, two artists whose influence still echoes through rock and roll. At the same time, the world remembers the passing of Mac Miller, whose career bridged hip-hop and introspective songwriting for a new generation. September 7 remains a date filled with both celebration and reflection in music history.

Chrissie Hynde, legendary singer-songwriter of The Pretenders, returns with an unexpected, warmly intimate project: Duets Special, issued under the inviting banner Chrissie Hynde & Pals, set for release on 17 October 2025 via Parlophone (and Rhino).

Chrissie Hynde has announced the 'Hynde Sight' exhibition of her latest paintings.

Pretenders third album ‘Learning To Crawl’ is turning 40. ‘Learning To Crawl’ was released on 13 January, 1984. It was the first album since the death of two members, Pete Fardon and James Honeyman-Scott, who both died of drug overdoses.

Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders says “who gives a shit” if a woman directed the new Barbie movie and “who gives two shits” if the movie made over $1billion.

The general rule at music festivals for classic rock bands is to play the hits because the audience didn’t come to see you … but Chrissie Hynde has never been one to follow the rules.
