Rolling Stones have 'recorded huge new album' after scrapping upcoming tour

The Rolling Stones, which consists of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, are said to have been working on a new album after deciding to scrap plans for a European tour
The Rolling Stones are said to be working on a new album after reportedly deciding to scrap plans for a comeback tour in Europe. It's claimed that the group have more than a dozen songs ready to go after spending time in the studio.
Bandmates Mick Jagger, 81, Keith Richards, 81, and Ronnie Wood, 78, are said to have been working in Metropolis Studios in London since April. It's reported that they are now in discussions over the release of their 25th studio album.
‌
It's been suggested that the trio have collaborated again with producer Andrew Watt. He worked with the Rolling Stones on their last album Hackney Diamonds, which topped the UK Albums Chart following its release back in 2023.
‌
According to the Sun, Mick, Keith, and Ronnie are working on the new album after scrapping plans for a summer tour in the UK and other countries. The band's potential European tour had been rumoured earlier this year.
A source told the outlet: "Mick, Keith and Ronnie have been secretly recording their new record with their drummer Steve Jordan." It's claimed that the band are "happy" with 13 songs and are discussing when to release it.
The source went on to discuss the rumoured tour, saying that it didn't work out. They said: "Originally, the plan was for them to bring their huge US tour to the UK and Europe this summer, but promoters couldn't get the dates to work."
They continued: "Instead the Stones decided to get back into the studio and put down their next album." The source suggested that it's "massive" news for fans who didn't get a chance to see the acclaimed band perform live this year.
‌
There was speculation over a possible tour in January. It was suggested at the time that the band could return to the UK with their Hackney Diamonds tour to play four dates at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the capital city.
A source told the Daily Mail that Mick, Keith and Ronnie couldn't wait to bring the tour to the UK. They said: "They've been planning it for months and are itching to get back out on the road and do what they do best, which is perform."
Prior to subsequent reports that the tour plans had been shelved, it was initially suggested that they would also visit other locations in Europe. There was speculation that the other shows would be in Barcelona, Rome, Amsterdam and Paris.
‌
The speculation came following the Rolling Stones' Hackney Diamonds in the US and Canada last year. The trio performed at a host of venues, including SoFi Stadium in Inglewood and BC Place in Vancouver, whilst on the tour.
The tour was in support of their album Hackney Diamonds, which was released the previous year. It was their eighth studio album to top the charts in the UK, following in the footsteps of albums like Aftermath and Emotional Rescue.
The Mirror has approached the Stones spokesperson for comment.

Amouranth returns to Twitch after deleting post showing money earned at Kick

Two years after signing a deal with Kick, Amouranth has revealed she's making a grand return to Twitch. Kaitlyn Siragusa, aka Amouranth, is known for her controversial hot tub and ASMR livestreams, which have led to at least eight Twitch bans in the past. While her popularity began on Twitch, two years ago the streamer signed a non-exclusive deal with rival streaming platform Kick. The deal's exact worth is still unknown, but Amouranth publicly said it 'doubled my income across the board'. Over the past couple of years, Amouranth has still occasionally streamed on other platforms outside of Kick, including Twitch, but it appears she's now making a return on a more regular basis. On Thursday, June 19, Amouranth posted a video on X showing the streamer outside a 7-Eleven store, where she drives off in a vehicle which switches from green to purple. The video concludes with the message,'The Return', alongside a link to her Twitch channel. The original post for this video was captioned, '$38 million later…' – presumably the amount she earned from Kick over the past two years. However, this post has since been deleted and replaced with an updated version on Friday, June 20 which simply reads 'Today'. Today — Amouranth (@Amouranth) June 20, 2025 Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. It's unclear whether this new version was simply to re-promote her return, or if she got a telling off from Kick for revealing her income (or just became self-conscious about it), but the livestream is set to begin on Friday. More Trending The exact parameters around Amouranth's return to Twitch are also unknown. If it is a new deal, it will likely be non-exclusive, as the streamer has a huge presence on other platforms like OnlyFans. It's also unclear if she'll abandon Kick entirely, but the exact details might emerge during her 'return' stream later today. Despite being primarily a Kick streamer for two years, Amouranth still has over 6.2 million followers on Twitch. In comparison, she has 265,900 Kick followers. A number of other big streamers have signed deals with Kick over the past few years, as the platform looks to boost its viewership, including Félix Lengyel, aka xQc, Adin Ross, and Ice Poseidon.

Scottish Maritime Museum announces international maritime concert

Zawisza Czarny, sea shanty choir from Poland and the Glasgow-based Solo Way Ukrainian Choir will celebrate the seafaring and folk traditions that unite countries across the world The Scottish Maritime Museum is "delighted" to announce that Zawisza Czarny, which is believed to be the largest male sea shanty choir from Poland and only crew of singing sailors in the world, and the all-female Glasgow-based Solo Way Ukrainian Choir will join together for an international maritime concert. The 'Echoes from the Deep' concert will take place on Friday, June 27 at 7.30pm in the museum's glass roofed Linthouse building on Irvine Harbourside. ‌ This is the second time that Zawisza Czarny has performed at the Scottish Maritime Museum with the generous support of the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in Edinburgh. ‌ Once a year, 50 'singing sailors' and crew members aged 20 to 88 years of age, board the 1952 three-masted staysail schooner Zawisza Czarny and sail to European ports to promote maritime traditions by performing as sailors would have aboard the great sailing ships of old. The choir performs classical shanties as they would have been sung whilst working on deck, with the division of vocal parts between shantyman and sailors. They also perform instrumental pieces which would have been played below deck during leisure time along with ceremonial songs and contemporary maritime folk. As well as promoting maritime heritage and building international relationships, Zawisza Czarny commemorates important events in the history of Polish naval and civilian shipping. This year, they mark the MS Piłsudski , a Polish troop carrier lost to enemy action off the UK coast in 1939. The Solo Way Ukrainian Choir was formed by Bozhena Yakymenko in November 2022. The choir was born from her desire to bring comfort through song to Ukrainian women who found refuge in Scotland after the Russian invasion. Under the expert direction of Bozhena, who is a gifted bandura player and musician, the choir has quickly built a diverse and rich repertoire of over thirty songs. These range from the heartfelt melodies of traditional Ukrainian folk tunes, carrying generations of musical heritage, to vibrant contemporary hits, including popular Eurovision songs. ‌ Today, Solo Way Ukrainian Choir is a powerful voice of resilience and hope and the group performs at charity concerts and commemorative events, using music to bridge cultures and heal hearts. Eva Bukowska, Exhibitions and Events Officer at the Scottish Maritime Museum, said: "Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience authentic maritime and folk music performed by two choirs whose stories embody the spirit of international friendship and the enduring power of song to connect us across cultures and seas. "From the haunting calls of traditional shanties that once echoed across ship decks to the powerful harmonies that sustained sailors through long voyages, Zawisza Czarny promises to transport everyone back to the golden age of sail. ‌ "Their songs also perfectly complement our collection of maritime heritage and the setting of the Linthouse building, which was once a shipyard engine shed in Govan. "The Solo Way Ukrainian Choir is named after the Ukrainian word for nightingale - 'solovey' – a cherished bird which symbolises hope and pure, beautiful singing in Ukrainian culture and that's a perfect reflection of the choir's spirit. "Born from resilience and a shared heritage, the choir is a truly unique and inspiring ensemble. ‌ "Altogether, this evening of music and song with Zawisza Czarny and Solo Way Ukrainian Choir promises to be unforgettable and early booking is highly recommended!" Tickets priced £16.50 are available on the museum's website here.

Legendary BBC series hailed as ‘guilty pleasure' streaming for free in UK

A cult TV series has been added to a streaming service in its entirety for the first time ever, giving audiences a rare opportunity to watch it the whole way through. Eldorado, the short-lived BBC One soap from EastEnders creators Tony Holland and Julia Smith, is available to watch on UKTV Play. The iconic soap, which ran for just 156 episodes, followed the lives of British and European expatriates who resided in the fictional town of Los Barcos in Spain. It hit screens first in 1992, with BBC bosses hopeful of replicating the success of Australian imports such as Neighbours or Home and Away. The show didn't exactly pan out as the station hoped, though it did undergo huge changes towards the end of its run, which received positive reviews from audiences and an uptick in ratings. Despite the improvements, however, Eldorado was ultimately cancelled in 1993. Viewers who missed the BBC serial first time around have had few opportunities in the subsequent decades to give it a go, with the soap having been re-run on TV a number of times. UK Gold screened it in the late 90s and early noughties and a selection of episodes were made available on the UK's BritBox a few years ago. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?

U&Drama re-ran the cult soap in its entirety earlier this year, with episodes added to streaming service UKTV Play for a short time after broadcast. However, the service has now re-added the earlier episodes, meaning that – for the first time ever – fans can essentially stream the whole Los Barcos saga. Though Eldorado was critiqued during its initial run, fan opinion has softened over the years. One viewer wrote on Reddit that they were enjoying the latest round of re-runs, branding the serial a 'guilty pleasure.' Another called the show 'brilliant' and 'comedy gold'. Just two weeks into the re-runs, fans were quick to share their delight at being able to revisit the sunny soap. '#Eldorado continues to deliver absolute camp' said one on X. More Trending Another added: 'Enjoying the repeats of Eldorado. I mean I can't hear it half the time but at least I can blame those Spanish acoustics and not my age.' 'Thoroughly enjoyed the first episodes of #Eldorado being repeated yesterday' said one. When the repeats concluded, fan James wrote on X: 'Los Barcos, I'm gonna miss you,' referring to the overhauled era of the show as 'f***ing fantastic television'.
