To say that Nirvana‘s third and ultimately final studio album In Utero was one of the most impactful records of the modern era would be an understatement. Originally released September 21, 1993, In Utero‘s unadorned sonic rawness was received by critics and fans with equal measures of shock and elation, as Steve Albini‘s recording laid bare every primal nuance of the most confrontational yet vulnerable material Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl would ever record. And with its 1991 predecessor Nevermind having sold some 30 million copies and causing a seismic pop cultural shift, In Utero was essentially the first record Nirvana would make with any expectations from the public.  So from the opening quasi-shamble melodics of “Serve The Servants” through the bittersweet closing strains of “All Apologies,” In Utero was the sound of the most incredible yet conflicted musical force of the era at the peak of its powers coming to terms with a generational spokes-band mantle they’d never seen coming—and ultimately surmounting these struggles to make the record they needed to make. 

In Utero went on to mark Nirvana’s first #1 debut on the Billboard 200 and has since been certified 6x platinum in the United States.

Geffen/UMe commemorates the 30th anniversary of In Utero with several multi-format reissues, arriving on October 27, 2023. Configurations include a limited-edition 8LP Super Deluxe box set, 5CD Super Deluxe box set, 1 LP + 10” edition, 2CD Deluxe edition, and a Digital Super Deluxe edition. 

Pre-order/Pre-save Nirvana – In Utero: 30th Anniversary HERE.

The three Super Deluxe Edition releases comprise a total of 72 tracks with 53 previously unreleased tracks. Among the unreleased material, two full In Utero-era concerts, namely Live In Los Angeles (1993) and the band’s final Seattle performance, Live In Seattle (1994), are included in addition to six bonus live tracks from Rome, Springfield, and New York. Seattle producer and engineer Jack Endino—who helmed the band’s 1988 debut Bleach—reconstructed the live tracks from stereo soundboard tapes for this year’s reissue. Additionally, In Utero’s original twelve songs, along with five bonus tracks and B-sides, have been newly remastered from the original analog master stereo tapes by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Services—who assisted Albini as the only other engineer at the original sessions.

Check out the full tracklisting below.

The physical Super Deluxe Edition box sets also boast a removable front-cover acrylic panel with the album’s iconic Angel; a 48-page hardcover book with unreleased photos; a 20-page newly designed fanzine; a Los Angeles tour poster lithograph by hot rod artist Coop; replicas of the 1993 record store promo Angel mobile, three gig fliers, two ticket stubs for Los Angeles and Seattle, an All-Access tour laminate, and four cloth sticky tour backstage passes: Press, Photo, After Show, and Local Crew.

Available exclusively at online stores at uDiscovermusic.com and SoundofVinyl.com and limited to 3000 units worldwide, fans who buy either Super Deluxe Edition will receive a Nirvana acrylic stand to display their angel-on-acrylic panel included in both boxset configurations.

Nirvana recorded In Utero over the course of six days in February 1993 at Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, MN with Albini. Retrospectively, Pitchfork rated it a rare perfect score of “10.0” and wrote, “In Utero is the sort of painful shock that, paradoxically, reinstills the empowering sensation of feeling alive.” Upon its arrival back in 1993, David Fricke wrote in Rolling Stone, “In Utero is a lot of things—brilliant, corrosive, enraged and thoughtful, most of them all at once. But more than anything, it’s a triumph of the will.”

ABOUT NIRVANA:

Formed by friends Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic, Nirvana emerged from Aberdeen, Washington in 1987. The band’s full-length debut Bleach was recorded in 30 hours for $606.17 and released in 1988 on Sub Pop, soon becoming the biggest seller in the label’s history. Joined by drummer Dave Grohl, the trio delivered Nevermind in 1991, peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200, going RIAA Diamond in the United States, and moving over 30 million copies worldwide as “one of the best-selling albums of all-time,” according to Soundscan. The 1993 follow-up In Utero bowed at #1 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified platinum in 10 countries and gold in 9 more. The Nirvana catalog is also highlighted in the U.S. by the newly Diamond-certified single “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” platinum Incesticide [1992], 8x-platinum MTV Unplugged in New York [1994], and platinum From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah [1996]. Nirvana was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame® during its first year of eligibility in 2014. Beyond selling a total of 75 million records globally, the band has collected 1 American Music Award, 1 BRIT Award, 7 MTV VMA Awards, and 2 GRAMMY® Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY® Award in 2023.

“A dose of helter-skelter outlaw energy from two of the best in the biz” – Clash Magazine
“A ram-jam barrage of 50s rock ‘n’ roll mania, shot through with punk venom” – Classic Rock

“A breath of fresh air…reminds me of Motorhead. What the world needs now!” – Chrissie Hynde

His Lordship, one of the most explosive and exciting live acts to emerge from the UK in years, come flying out of the traps with the announcement of their debut self-titled album, out January 12th, 2024 – produced by David Wrench and Tchad Blake (Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys).

A tour de force of twelve frenetic, frenzied, rapturous tracks, the album will also include their latest offering ‘Jackie Works For The NHS’ – a monster garage rock anthem with a chorus that will blow the roof off venues across the country when they take to the road in November. Totalling  seven shows, the tour will conclude in what will be a simply wild night in the capital at London’s Garage on November 17th.

In a statement of defiance, the band declare; “His lordship are primed and fuelled ready to unleash deafening mayhem around the UK this November. Prepare yourself to be transported to a state of mind melting Rock’n’Roll bliss ahead of the self-titled debut record release next year.”

A maximum rock’n’roll trio conceived during lockdown to blow the cobwebs away and remind us of what music has been missing, the band are made up of the powerhouse duo of James Walbourne (The Pretenders, The Pogues, The Rails) and Kristoffer Sonne (Chrissie Hynde, Willie Nelson), the band’s first single ‘All Cranked Up’ hit the 6 Music B-List last summer, and today sees the release of its follow up ‘Buzzkill’ – an angular, twisted ear worm produced by David Wrench (Courtney Barnett, XX, Frank Ocean) – listen here.

His Lordship sold out their debut UK tour in July, and then joined Jason Isbell on a sell out European tour culminating with a roof raising show at London’s Eventim Apollo. To coincide with the new single the band headed out on their biggest headline tour to date, taking in 12 cities, including a sold-out headline show at London’s Lafayette in April this year. 

His Lordship will play the following UK headline shows in November. Tickets on-sale HERE.

Sony Music Entertainment will continue the Depeche Mode 12″ vinyl singles project with the release of Delta Machine | The 12″ Singles on 6 October 2023.

Delta Machine | The 12″ Singles, a collector’s edition deluxe box set, contains six 12″ vinyl discs spotlighting the singles featured on Delta Machine, Depeche Mode’s 13th studio album (and first for Columbia Records). Originally released on Mute/Columbia in March 2013, Delta Machine presented fans with Heaven (released as the album’s lead single in January 2013), Soothe My Soul (released May 2013) and Should Be Higher (released October 2013). 

The Delta Machine | The 12″ Singles box set includes replicas of the original 12″ single releases plus three newly compiled discs featuring remixes, dub mixes, instrumental versions, live sessions and radio mixes of the singles as well as the bonus track “Goodbye (Gesaffelstein Remix).”

Depeche Mode recorded their Delta Machine album in 2012 at Sound Design in Santa Barbara, California and Jungle City in New York, working for the third time with producer Ben Hillier, who’d helmed the group’s two previous studio albums: 2005’s Playing The Angel and 2009’s Sounds Of The Universe. Delta Machine was mixed by the legendary audio engineer Flood, who’d worked with DM on Violator (1990) and Songs of Faith and Devotion (1993). Following the album’s release, Depeche Mode launched the Delta Machine Tour, which opened in Nice, France, on 4 May 2013, and concluded in Moscow on 7 March 2014. 

Like many of the band’s previous releases, Delta Machine expanded Depeche Mode’s vision and repertoire while continuing their tradition of issuing monumental 12″ singles to supplement and complement their albums.

From their earliest days as a band, Depeche Mode have championed 12″ vinyl, embracing the format’s singular power and potential for innovation. The 12″ single allowed the band to explore new sonic possibilities while the tactile real-world beauty of physical packaging gave Depeche Mode room to develop their consistently sophisticated and commanding design aesthetic. Depeche Mode have used their singles discography as a means of offering fans the opportunity to enjoy left field remixes, rare B-sides, standout concert performances and other exclusive delights. 

Sony Music Entertainment released the first two box sets in the Depeche Mode 12″ singles series–Speak & Spell | The Singles and A Broken Frame | The Singles–in August 2018 with the second batch–Construction Time Again | The 12″ Singles and Some Great Reward | The 12″ Singles–arriving in December 2018. SME released Depeche Mode’s Black Celebration | The 12″ Singles and Music For The Masses | The 12″ Singles on 31 May 2019. 2020 saw the release of Violator | The 12″ Singles in July and Songs Of Faith And Devotion | The 12″ Singles in October. The ninth collection in the series, Ultra | The 12″ Singles was released on 27 September 2021 with the tenth volume, Exciter | The 12″ Singles, arriving on 10 June 2022. The 11th volume in the series, Playing The Angel | The 12″ Singles, was released in November 2022. 2023 has seen the release of Sounds Of The Universe | The 12″ Singles in August with Delta Machine | The 12″ Singles following in September.

Each box set in the series contains the singles from an individual Depeche Mode album pressed on audiophile-quality 12″ vinyl. The artwork for the exterior of each of the box sets draws on iconography inspired by the original releases, while the vinyl sleeves themselves feature the original single artwork. 

Delta Machine | The 12″ Singles is the chronological 13th volume in SME’s Depeche Mode 12″ Singles Series with plans to release a Spirit box set in a similar deluxe audio-grade collector’s edition.

The track is the second single the band have released since their acclaimed 2022 sophomore album Burn The Empire. Listen to ‘Dreams’ HERE.

Rapturously opening their sets at SWG3 in July, ‘Dreams’ is The Snuts at their vibrant best; Infectious, soaked in sunshine and packed to the brim with lead singer Jack Cochrane’s singalong hooks. Produced by Jack and longtime collaborator Scotty Anderson at Watercolour Music in Fort William and Magic Box in Dundee, the track sees the band reuniting with WL collaborator Tony Hoffer (Beck, Depeche Mode, Phoenix) on mixing duties. 

Set to become a mainstay across festival stages around the world, Jack says of the track “’Dreams’ is a feel good track, which celebrates the feeling of punching way above your weight, when life feels almost too good to be true.”

The Snuts are well and truly into their stride. With chart-topping and top 3 albums under their belts, songs that attack subjects affecting the youth of today, and an arsenal of adoring fans up and down the country, these four lads from Whitburn, West Lothian, are well on their way to being one of the most vital bands of recent years. 

Currently in the studio working on the followup to Burn The Empire, The Snuts return to the main stage at Reading & Leeds Festivals this weekend.

Six years since the release of their critically-acclaimed, Top 4-charting The Punishment Of Luxury, synth pioneers Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark (OMD) return with their brand new studio album Bauhaus Staircase – out October 27th.

The album’s first offering is the title track, which serves as a nod both to Andy McCluskey’s love of the Bauhaus era & the power of protest art. It’s available today – Watch the animated video HERE.

“I am a huge lover of visual arts, especially mid 20th century movements,” Andy comments. “The song is a metaphor for strength and artist passion in the face of criticism and adversity. When times are hard, there is a tendency for Governments to look at cutting funding for creativity, just at the moment when the arts are most needed to nourish our souls. It seems appropriate that the song and its eponymous album were created during Covid Lockdown.”

It arrives as the band’s most explicitly political record and the crowning achievement of their desire to be both Stockhausen and Abba – born from the impetus to kickstart new explorations during lockdown when, as Andy McCluskey admits: “I rediscovered the creative power of total boredom.”

Predominantly written, recorded, and mixed by both McCluskey & Paul Humphreys (who has recently become a second-time father), Bauhaus Staircase’s other main external influence was David Watts, mainly known as a rock producer who helmed Sheffield band The Reytons’ recent No 1 album and mixed two tracks on the new OMD record.

Ranging from the beautiful film noir ballad of ‘Veruschka’, to ‘Anthropocene’ – a term for the current epoch in Earth’s evolution, to the sinister ‘Evolution Of Species’, and the hectic ‘Kleptocracy’ – OMD’s greatest straight-up protest song – the new album is a broad, electronic, sonic masterpiece that lyrically tackles the topics of the future. The record closes on ‘Healing’ – a moment of reflective calm and a rare OMD co-write, with lyrics by McCluskey’s friend, Liverpool singer-songwriter Caroline England, and production from ATOM TM.

OMD have sold an astonishing 25 million singles and 15 million albums, which has established them as electronic synthesiser pioneers and one of Britain’s best-loved pop groups. Their 13 albums include reissued ‘Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark’ (1980), ‘Organisation’ (1980), ‘Architecture & Morality’ (1981) and ‘Dazzle Ships’ (1983).

By rights, OMD should be in semi-retirement, performing classics like Enola Gay and Maid Of Orleans on the nostalgia festival circuit like so many peers. Instead, they’ve created a landmark album worthy of their finest work. If real life meant OMD were happy to get help, Bauhaus Staircase remains unmistakably the work of a duo who are still perfectly in sync 45 years after their first gig at legendary Liverpool club Eric’s.

“I’m very happy with what we’ve done on this record,” McCluskey summarises. “I’m comfortable if this is OMD’s last statement.”

Margo Price brings listeners deeper down the psychedelic rabbit hole of her critically-acclaimed new album, Strays. Out in full on October 13th, Strays II expands the original 2023 opus with nine new songs that will arrive in the form of three distinct acts, each telling its own unique story of love, grief and acceptance. 

On Act I: Topanga Canyon, available now via Loma Vista Recordings, Margo Price is joined by Strays producer Jonathan Wilson, as well as new collaborators including Buck Meek of Big Thief, plus singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ny Oh. Together they dive deeper into the sacrifices it takes to find freedom, the grit it takes to make it, and the consequences that come with all of it. Recorded at Wilson’s Topanga studio during the same life-changing sessions as the rest of Strays – and partially written amidst the formative, six-day psilocybin trip that Margo Price and Jeremy Ivey took the summer prior – all three acts of Strays II further complement and intensify the resilient, resounding, and hard-rocking proclamation that Price delivered across the initial LP earlier this year. Listen to Act I: Topanga Canyon HERE.

Accompanied by a three-part short film directed by Chris Phelps and recently previewed at the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles, Strays II will continue to unfold throughout the coming weeks with the release of Act II: Mind Travel and Act III: Burn Whatever’s Left. All nineteen tracks will then combine into the double album’s digital release on October 13th, followed by a vinyl LP release of the nine new Strays II songs on November 10th – pre-order it here. Of the three new additions out today, Margo Price says: 

“The title track is the story of how my husband Jeremy and I met and fell in love in Nashville two decades ago. I wrote most of the words and Jeremy wrote the chords and melody. It also reflects how we have always tried to stay true to who we are as people: ‘Love and pain it comes in waves but it was quite enough in those early days, we were wild as wolves my darlin’, we were strays.’

‘Closer I Get’ (co-written with Jeremy Ivey) was originally meant to open this double album with the line, ‘Being alive costs a lot of money but so does dying.’ I’ve always thought it was unfair that the moment we are born, we immediately start racking up debt just for existing. This song was conjured from the ashes of our initial psychedelic trip – sometimes your perception and depth of field changes depending on where you’re at in life.

‘Malibu’ was written with Mike Campbell in his Malibu home after Jeremy and I had driven through the canyon fleeing a forest fire to get my guitar from our Airbnb. I had the start of the song and brought it to him looking to finish it out. I wanted to write something with a country funk/Bobbie Gentry feel, a good long rambling story about the minutiae of the day, like ‘Ode to Billy Joe.’ Mike added the long ‘California’ yodel and the bridge and was exactly what the song needed. My favorite line is ‘love and grief are a package deal, the more you have, the more you feel.’”

Like Strays and its many “stoic pearls of wisdom” (Pitchfork), Strays II reveals more of what makes Margo Price so “unstoppable, unsinkable, uninhibited” (The New York Times). Surmounting loss, trauma, substance abuse, demons of self-worth and more, the songs of Strays have cemented her place as a singular storyteller, with so much to say but nothing to prove. Since the album’s release, Price has earned nominations for Artist of The Year, Album of The Year and Song of The Year (“Change of Heart”) at the upcoming Americana Honors & Awards, tying for the most nominations of any single artist in 2023. 

Recently, Margo Price also revealed details of the new Jessi Colter album that she produced (Edge of Forever), hosted a star-studded tribute to John Prine for Newport Folk Festival, performed with My Morning Jacket and Angel Olsen, celebrated Willie Nelson at his 90th birthday, played shows with Chris Stapleton and Tyler Childers, published a powerful, personal essay about gun control at Rolling Stone, met with Tennessean lawmakers and sang alongside Dr. Jill Biden at Nashville’s vigil for the Covenant shooting victims. She has brought Strays songs and stories to CBS Mornings and The Late Late Show with “Radio” collaborator Sharon Van Etten, discussed her memoir Maybe We’ll Make It during the closing keynote of SXSW, taped an episode of Austin City Limits, reigned for 14 weeks at #1 on the Americana radio charts with “Change of Heart,” and released a new version of that song with Sierra Ferrell. 

Following a long-awaited return to the UK this week, Margo Price and her band will hit the road for an autumn leg of her ‘Til The Wheels Fall Off Tour. In addition to headline dates across the country, Price will play festivals including Hopscotch, XPoNential, Pilgrimage and Farm Aid, where Price is the first female artist to sit on the board of directors.

‘Simply Red deliver an unfaltering showcase of passion and

 timeless pop music…an essential record’ – Retropop Magazine

‘Time  is another stellar example of a perfectly-crafted pop-soul album from the band which is
chock-full of fantastic musicianship, powerhouse vocals and Hucknall’s impassioned delivery.’ – Clash Magazine

‘Time is arguably the singer’s most personal work to date’ – Record Collector

After wrapping up a sold out 33-date European Summer tour, Simply Red today release a superb single mix of ‘It Wouldn’t Be Me’, taken from their latest album Time.

A stunning, melodic love song, ‘It Wouldn’t Be Me’ tells the story of a woman who has escaped her difficult past, meets someone and falls in love. “I don’t write stories very often” says Hucknall of the song, “but it’s about a girl who is scared of what she used to be. The narrator of the song loves her despite her past and isn’t gonna give up on her”.

Time was received with unanimous and emphatic praise by the media. Clash Magazine branded it “another stellar example of a perfectly-crafted pop-soul album”, with Retropop Magazine declaring it as “an essential record”, and Record Collector noting that “Time is arguably the singer’s (Mick Hucknall)’s most personal work to date”.

With a career spanning 12 studio albums as Simply Red (five of them Number Ones), two solo albums, back-to-back ASCAP Most Performed Song honours (1987 and 1988) for Holding Back The Years, consecutive Brit Awards (1992 and 1993) for Best British Group, a Brit for Best British Male (1993), the 1997 MOBO for Outstanding Achievement, two Ivor Novellos (1992 Songwriter of the Year; 2002 Outstanding Song Collection), some 60 million album sales, 1.8 billion streams across all streaming platforms worldwide, and over 1 million YouTube subscribers, Mick is ready to continue the ride into the next chapter.

After celebrating with a very special one-off launch show at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire back in June, and playing a host of European Summer shows this year, the band will return to the UK to play BBC Radio 2’s sold out ‘Live In The Park’ on September 17th in Leicester’s Victoria Park.

In anticipation of his third studio album Unreal Unearth out this Friday, Hozier has released the official video for his latest offering “De Selby (Part 2)” starring Irish actor Domhnall Gleeson (Harry Potter, Star Wars, The Revenant). 

Drawing inspiration from the song’s title that shares its name with a character from Irish literary classic The Third Policeman, the visual finds the Tony Award, Golden Globe, and Critics Choice-nominee traversing deserted landscapes as a man who is unknowingly dead. Watch the Wolf James-directed video HERE.

Speaking to the visual, Hozier says: “I’m very proud to release this collaborative video for ‘De Selby (Part 2)’ featuring the incredible Domhnall Gleeson and directed by the great Wolf James. Working together with such creative talents toward this piece was a pleasure, and I’m honored that Domhnall Gleeson would bring his remarkable skills and this stunning performance to my work.”

The GRAMMY®-nominated / RIAA Diamond-certified singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist is gearing up to release his forthcoming album Unreal Unearth this Friday. The 16-track LP features previously released singles “De Selby (Part 2),” “Eat Your Young,” “All Things End,” and “Francesca,” which is currently top 5 at Triple A radio, as well as 11 brand new songs including a feature from Brandi Carlile on “Damage Gets Done.” Unreal Unearth will be available globally both digitally and in various physical configurations including standard black LP, raw ochre D2C exclusive LP, burnt clay Amazon exclusive LP, light umber indie retail exclusive LP, CD, and cassette. Pre-order HERE.

Hozier followed a triumphant surprise set at Glastonbury with an acclaimed sold out show at Ally Pally Park last month. With over 1 million tickets sold worldwide, and recently wrapping a sold out European, UK and US tours, he will bring his massive international ‘Unreal Unearth Tour’ back to the UK and Europe in December, which will see him conquer arenas, including London’s OVO Arena Wembley, which has sold out already. Visit https://hozier.com/ for full tour routing

Biggest Ever UK Headline Tour – October / November 2023
Includes London Palladium – November 14th

Undoubted Queen of British Soul Beverley Knight releases her brand new disco-inspired single ‘Systematic Overload’, taken from her new studio album, The Fifth Chapter – out September 29th on Tag8/BMG.

With a sense of adventure fuelled by her looming landmark birthday, Beverley chose the songs furthest from her usual style and met with their composers to record them. The new single is one of those, following the stunning soul-pop leaning ‘Last One On My Mind’, ‘Systematic Overload’ signals a sonic departure as Beverley veers into glorious uplifting disco-tinged territory, partnering with fast-rising Romanian producer Serban Cazan. Listen HERE.

“Systematic Overload is another style departure for me”, explains Beverley. “It’s a colourful, kaleidoscopic sounding modern pop song with the soulful element coming from my vocal and the groove. From the moment I started singing, I was riding the rhythm. I love the tough beats and heavy bass. It’s disco for now, a very different sound for me, but with the high energy I’m used to.”

No stranger to the spotlight, Beverley can do it all. An Olivier award-winning star of the West End stage, Saturday night TV regular on the latest series of Starstruck, and an astounding singer with a prolific music career. She finds herself aged 50, bigger than ever.

Partnering with a wealth of songwriting talent including Diane Warren, Evan Bogart,

Sebastian Kole, Ollie Green and Andrew Roachford, as well as being co-produced with the likes of Jimmy Hogarth, AC Burrell, Mitch Allan & Josh Cohen/DJ Walde, Beverley’s first collection of new music in seven years is a spectacular journey through the inspirations that have defined her incredible career.

Beverley has had several Top 10 albums and sold over a million albums in the UK, with four gold-certified. Her most recent studio album Soulsville went straight into the UK Top 10.

In recent years, Wolverhampton born Knight has forged a formidable parallel career in theatre. Her West End debut was the starring role in The Bodyguard followed by leading the Tony winning Memphis The Musical. At the request of Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber she joined the cast of Cats, playing the iconic role of Grizabella. 2021 saw Beverley lead The Drifters Girl at the Garrick Theatre as the formidable manager of soul group The Drifters, which was Olivier nominated Best New Musical, and Beverley for Best Actress.

Starring to huge acclaim as Emmeline Pankhurst in Sylvia at The Old Vic, Beverley won Best Actress in a Supporting Role in a Musical at the Olivier Awards in April. The show also received nominations for Best New Musical and Best Choreographer.

A British treasure, Beverley was awarded an MBE in 2007 for services to British music and charity, has won three MOBO Awards, been nominated for Best Female at the Brit Awards 3 times, Best Actress at the Olivier Awards twice, and Best Female at the prestigious Mercury Music Prize.

Beverley was also recently on screen Saturday nights as a panel judge in ITV’s talent series Starstruck. Broadcasting work beyond this hit show include presenting 4 series of Radio 2 show ‘Beverley’s Gospel Nights’ and two series of the BBC1 show Just the Two of Us. She recently appeared in the all star cast of Amazon’s new live action movie Cinderella (2021) with Camilla Cabello in the title role.

Beverley will take on her biggest ever UK tour to date, which has almost sold out already, performing twenty very special headline dates across the UK throughout October & November, to over 30,000 people. Back together with her live band, expect fun-filled nights where she will perform all of her classic hits, fan favourites along with brand new songs.

“I feel as though I am about to step into a whole new level of wonder because I have come into my power”, concludes Beverley. “My career is not a big shiny billboard poster that gets replaced with the next star in waiting. Mine is a novel, and I just entered the Fifth and most exciting chapter of it.”

Pre-Order the album HERE

Madonna’s all-theatre Madame X Tour captivated sold-out audiences worldwide with its unparalleled intimacy. This rare and unforgettable experience was beautifully documented in Madame X, her 2021 concept film and digital soundtrack. This summer, the soundtrack will make its vinyl debut as a 3-LP set that includes two previously unreleased bonus tracks.

Available on September 22nd, MADAME X: MUSIC FROM THE THEATER XPERIENCE showcases 22 powerful live performances of songs that span the remarkably different eras of Madonna’s iconic career, including her ninth #1 album, Madame X. The upcoming collection introduces exclusive live performances of “Crave” (featuring Swae Lee) and “Sodade,” two songs that did not appear on the digital soundtrack.

MADAME X: MUSIC FROM THE THEATER XPERIENCE was recorded in January 2020 in Lisbon, Portugal, during Madonna’s Madame X Tour. It was her first time performing live in smaller venues since her 1985 Virgin Tour. Notably, her 2008 Sticky & Sweet Tour still holds the record for the highest-grossing concert tour ever by a female artist.

The Madame X tour introduced the world to Madonna’s fearless persona, Madame X, a secret agent traveling the world, changing identities, fighting for freedom, and bringing light to dark places. Mesmerizing performances of several songs from Madame X (Madonna’s 14th studio album) are part of the soundtrack, including “Dark Ballet,” “I Rise,” and “I Don’t Search I Find,” which topped the Hot Dance Club Songs chart in 2020 to become her 50th #1 hit. The soundtrack also features live versions of global favourites like “Vogue,” “Human Nature,” “Like A Prayer,” and “Frozen.”

MADAME X: MUSIC FROM THE THEATER XPERIENCE will be released as a 3LP set on black vinyl to all retailers, as well as a special limited-edition 3LP picture disc, available exclusively through Madonna.com, Rhino.com and Warner Music Group D2C stores around the world.

With over 300 million records sold worldwide, Madonna reigns as the best-selling female artist of all time. Her celebrated career has earned countless accolades, including seven Grammy Awards, 24 ASCAP Pop Music Awards, and numerous international trophies, including BRIT, Bravo Otto, Danish Music, Edison, GAFFA, International Dance Music, Ivor Novello, Juno, MTV, and World Music Awards, among many others. In 2008, she was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
