Rolling Stones Near Completion of New Album, European Tour Expected

The Rolling Stones are nearly finished recording a follow-up album to their 2023 Grammy-winning release, Hackney Diamonds, with sessions reportedly taking place in Chiswick, London. Marlon Richards, son of guitarist Keith Richards, confirmed the band is working late hours and motivated by their recent Grammy win to produce another album with leftover material from the previous sessions. Plans for a European tour are also in discussion, following the cancellation of their originally planned 2025 UK and Europe dates due to scheduling conflicts. Mick Jagger and the band remain actively engaged in both studio work and touring, signaling a continued creative period for the legendary rock group. The new album would mark their twenty-fifth studio effort, continuing their decades-long legacy. These updates align with previous statements from the band indicating they were three-quarters through the new album shortly after Hackney Diamonds' release.
