U2 has announced the first six dates for their 2027 'Carnaval De Luz presents: The Greatest Show On Earth' world tour, launching in Mexico City, São Paulo, and Buenos Aires with Beck as the opening act. The tour supports their upcoming 16th studio album, 'Carnaval De Luz,' which releases on November 13. North American and European dates are expected to be revealed in the coming weeks.
Beck released his first new album in seven years, 'Ride Lonesome,' on September 18, 2026. The record marks a return to the somber, acoustic folk-rock style of his 2002 album 'Sea Change' and 2014's 'Morning Phase.' Critics describe the album as a significant quality improvement over his previous two releases, 'Colors' and 'Hyperspace,' praising its expansive production and resonant vocals. The album features string arrangements by his father, David Campbell, and was mixed by Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich. It is widely interpreted as a response to his 2019 divorce from actress Marissa Ribisi, though critics note the album's stylized approach transcends simple confessional songcraft.
Beck discusses his enduring creative drive, the shift from 'slacker rock' to introspective styles, and the release of his new album 'Ride Lonesome' on September 18. He reflects on past collaborations, including the Dust Brothers and Michel Gondry, and explains his decision to join Futurama after initially refusing other Hollywood offers.
The Black Keys' twelfth album, Ohio Players, showcases their return to a back-to-basics approach, featuring a bustling concoction of retro-rock, funky rhythms, and spectral keyboards. The album incorporates hip-hop elements and collaborations with Beck, resulting in a lively and colorful record that feels fresh and vibrant while remaining anchored in classic soul.
