Kings Of Leon announced details of their forthcoming LP ‘Can We Please Have Fun’ today (February 22) and have released its lead single ‘Mustang’.

The upcoming LP – which is available for pre-order/pre-save here – will mark the band’s ninth full-length studio album, and comes as the follow-up to 2021’s ‘When You See Yourself’.

Set for release on May 10, the album is set to see the members cutting themselves loose of expectations, experimenting with their sound and, as the title suggests, having some fun. Recorded at Dark Horse Studio, ‘Can We Please Have Fun’ was produced with new collaborator Kid Harpoon, and sees Caleb Followill and co. return to their gritty origins, while all the while pushing their sound into new territory.

“It was the most enjoyable record I’ve ever been a part of,” Caleb said, while bandmate Nathan Followill agreed, adding: “It’s like we allowed ourselves to be musically vulnerable… I love it when a rock band is not embarrassed to admit that every song doesn’t have to be on 11.”

As shared in a press release, the sound of the forthcoming album sees Kings Of Leon “unified in vision and purpose, freed from stress, and basking in an atmosphere of positivity”, and today they have shared the first taster of the LP in the form of lead single ‘Mustang’.

In other Kings Of Leon news, their last studio album,‘When You See Yourself’, was given a glowing four-star review from NME. “We’ll be seeing the Kings for a long time to come – and if every next album is like this one, that’s a cause for celebration,” it read.

More recently, they were announced as the headliners for the F1 British Grand Prix opening concert back in November, which is scheduled to take place at Silverstone on July 4. They’ll also make an appearance at Lollapalooza Brazil next month.

Reigning from Atlanta, GA, vocal powerhouse Teddy Swims (born Jaten Dimsdale) found himself on the path towards self-forgiveness when he started putting pen to paper for his debut studio album, I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1), via Warner Records. Though he’s released music and toured the world since making his debut in 2019, the 31-year-old Georgia-born artist has spent much of the last four years writing his way towards an album that would tell this story – his story – to the people who were ready to receive it.

An emotionally walloping and deeply resonant body of work to be released in multiple parts – much like Teddy’s own journey of self-discovery – I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1) is an album about diving headfirst into healing without any floatation devices. The ten-song Part One finds Teddy working out some very big, very real issues through his music. “Now I’m watching people connect with the messages and stories and realizing not only are the songs helping me, but they’re also helping them too,” he says. “It feels like all that work on the back end, all that internalizing, is finally making a difference.”

Swims’ breakout Multi-Platinum single “Lose Control” sees his success climbing to new heights, garnering over 2 billion global streams, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and hitting #1 at Top 40, Hot AC, R&B, and AC Radio. With nearly 5 billion career streams to date, a fully sold-out global headline tour, and new music in the works, Swims is in the midst of a record 2024.

Huntsville Orion Amphitheater has received its fair share of praise since opening in spring of 2022, and the venue now has another accolade to add to its list.

Billboard Magazine just named the Orion as the Top East Coast Amphitheater on its 2024 Top Music Venues list.

Orion Amphitheater is Top East Coast Amphitheater

Billboard describes the Orion by saying, “The classically designed amphitheater draws visitors from all over the world but was built specifically for Huntsville residents.”

“What an incredible honor to be included on this prestigious list of venues across the globe by such a longstanding and respected institution such as Billboard. It is staggering to think about the amazing amphitheaters all across east coast and to be named the very best among these this year I take as a true testament to the incredible work that the team puts into the experience for the artists, crews and fans that visit.” Ryan Murphy, Orion Amphitheater managing director

The accolade follows a huge 2023 season for The Orion, as it ranked #33 on Pollstar’s Top 50 Worldwide Amphitheaters list and hosted 32 concerts and 83 community and cultural events last year, welcoming some of music’s biggest names such as Lana Del Rey, Brandi Carlile, Snoop Dogg, James Taylor, Phish, Billy Strings, Widespread Panic, Ja Rule and Ashanti, Turnpike Troubadours, Weezer and more.

With these shows, The Orion sold more than 187,800 tickets, with nearly half being sold outside the state of Alabama.

The Orion is preparing for the 2024 season — when the venue will host more than 75 community-focused events and 40 concerts.

Upcoming shows at the Orion include a newly announced show from Neil Young and Crazy Horse (May 5) as well as performances from Lainey Wilson, Styx and Foreigner, NEEDTOBREATHE and Greta Van Fleet, with the majority of the schedule still to be announced.
