Joe Jackson is offering up another taste of his upcoming album Hope and Fury.
The “Is She Really Going Out With Him” singer has released “Fabulous People,” the second single from the record. According to a press release, it represents “a more rhythmic, radio-forward side of the album, built around a tight, dance-leaning groove and Jackson’s unmistakable melodic precision and wit.”
Hope and Fury,dropping April 10, is Jackson’s first studio album since 2019’s Fool. It will be released on CD, 180g vinyl and digitally, and is available for preorder now.
Jackson is set to support the album with a tour, kicking off May 11 in Poughkeepsie, New York, which will have him playing more than 80 shows and visiting 14 countries. A complete list of dates can be found at JoeJackson.com.

Foo Fighters have shared a teaser video hinting at new music.
The clip, posted to the band’s Instagram, sounds like one or perhaps several songs cut up. Meanwhile, the phrase “Do you want more???” continually pops up on the screen.
“This is just a test,” the accompanying caption reads.
Foo Fighters released two new singles in 2025, “Today’s Song” and “Asking for a Friend.” The band’s most recent album is 2023’s But Here We Are.
In between, the Foos parted ways with drummer Josh Freese — who joined in 2023 following the 2022 death of Taylor Hawkins — and recruited Ilan Rubin, formerly of Nine Inch Nails.
As we wait for possibly more new Foo Fighters material, you can plan your trip to see them live. The band’s upcoming schedule includes a U.S. stadium tour kicking off in August.

Def Leppard launched their Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace Tuesday, treating the crowd to some live debuts and songs they haven’t played in a while.
“WOW! THAT is how you kick off a Residency,” the band wrote on Instagram, alongside photos from the show. “Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate night 1 with us. The energy was palpable.” They added, “Let’s do it again, shall we?!”
According to setlist.fm, the band kicked off the show with the first-ever live performance of their new single “Rejoice.” The set also featured their 2024 single “Just Like 73.”
They also debuted a live performance of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus,” a song they recorded in 2018, along with a cover of the David Essex‘s “Rock On,” which Def Leppard hadn’t performed live since 2019.
The band dipped back into its catalog as well, playing the Adrenalize track “White Lightning” for the first time since 1993.
Of course, the show was packed with classic Def Leppard hits, including “Animal,” “Bringin’ On The Heartbreak,” “Armageddon It,” “Love Bites,” “Rock of Ages,” “Photograph,” “Hysteria,” and the show-closing “Pour Some Sugar on Me.”
Def Leppard: Live at Caesars Palace The Las Vegas Residency runs through Feb. 28, with their next show taking place on Saturday. A complete list of dates can be found at DefLeppard.com.

Little Feat has added a new set of spring and summer dates to their final tour, dubbed The Last Farewell Tour.
The new shows kick off May 26 in Ocean City, Maryland, with stops in Connecticut, New York, Las Vegas, California and more, before wrapping Aug. 22 in Denver, Colorado.
Tickets for the new shows go on sale Friday.
Little Feat announced in November that they would be embarking on their final tour in 2026 before retiring from the road. The name of the tour is a callback to their 1975 release, The Last Record Album.
“My hope is ‘The Last Farewell Tour’ resembles a long passionate kiss, a prolonged warm hug, giving us all time to embrace this special moment to remember our collective past with those here and others departed but still in our hearts,” keyboardist and founding member Bill Payne writes on Instagram. “This is a celebration that acknowledges gratitude to all for an unforgettable journey, mingled with joy, sadness, but no regrets.”
He adds, “Let’s allow some time for all of this to play out. We still have a lot to say and share. All endings suggest new beginnings.”
Little Feat will launch the first leg of The Last Farewell Tour on April 10 in Orlando, Florida. A complete list of dates can be found at LittleFeat.net.

Jon Bon Jovi is set to take part in Sunday’s Super Bowl, although he won’t be performing.

All aboard … for the return of Ozzfest?
After Sharon Osbourne said that she was looking into bringing back her late husband Ozzy Osbourne‘s namesake festival, the official Ozzfest Instagram published a post reading, “Will Ozzfest return in 2027??”
The post is accompanied by an image that similarly teases, “Ozzfest could return — 2027?”
In an interview with Billboard published Jan. 28, Sharon, who founded Ozzfest in 1996, said, “I’ve been talking to Live Nation about bringing [Ozzfest] back recently. It was something Ozzy was very passionate about: giving young talent a stage in front of a lot of people.”
In its heyday in the ’90s and 2000s, Ozzfest was a staple of the hard rock and metal scene, helping propel the careers of bands including Linkin Park, Slipknot and Deftones.
The last Ozzfest was held on New Year’s Eve 2018 in Los Angeles. It marked Ozzy’s final full-length live performance before the 2025 Back to the Beginning concert, during which he played a solo set and with the reunited Black Sabbath. Ozzy died just over two weeks later on July 22.
Van Halen is celebrating the 40th anniversary of 5150, their first album featuring new frontman Sammy Hagar.
On March 27, just three days after the album’s actual 40th anniversary, the band will release an expanded edition of the album as a three-CD/LP/Blu-ray set.
The set features a remastered version of the 1986 release, as well as bonus 7-inch single edits and extended 12-inch tracks. There’s also a CD featuring unreleased live recordings from Van Halen’s Aug. 27, 1986, concert at New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum in New Haven, Connecticut.
The Blu-ray features the band’s 1986 concert video Live Without A Net, recorded during the same New Haven show, upgraded to HD for the first time. There are also promotional videos for singles “Dreams” and “Why Can’t This Be Love.”
As a preview of the set, the live New Haven performance of the track “Summer Nights” has just been released to digital outlets.
Van Halen will also reissue 5150 in two-LP and three-CD formats, which include the remastered album, along with single edits and live recordings.
Following the departure of original frontman David Lee Roth, Van Halen regrouped and recruitedHagar as their new frontman. Released March 24, 1986, 5150, named after guitarist Eddie Van Halen‘s home studio, is a reference to the California law that allows a mentally disturbed person to be placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold.
The album went on to become the band’s first #1 album and contained three pop hits: “Dreams,” “Why Can’t This Be Love” and “Love Walks In.”

Bruce Springsteen’s new song “Streets of Minneapolis” is already making an impact on the charts.
Billboardreports that the protest song, which he released on Jan. 28, has debuted at #1 on the Digital Song Sales chart for the week ending Jan. 29. Luminate data shows the song had 16,000 downloads two days after being released.
The tune is now Springsteen’s first-ever #1 on the Digital Song Sales chart.
“Streets of Minneapolis” was written in response to what’s been happening in Minnesota, including the fatal shootings of two protesters, Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Springsteen performed it live for the first time on Friday, when he was a special guest at Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello’s A Concert of Solidarity & Resistance to Defend Minnesota, which took place at the downtown Minneapolis venue First Ave.
“I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis,” Springsteen wrote on Instagram when he released the song. “It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.”

Elton John has tapped newly minted Grammy winner Lola Young as the entertainment for his annual Oscar viewing party, which benefits his AIDS Foundation.
The 34th annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party will take place March 15 in West Hollywood, California. The event will be co-hosted by Elton and his husband, David Furnish, and Neil Patrick Harris and his husband, David Burtka. Among those serving on the committee for the event are Sharon Stone, Patricia Arquette, Brandi Carlile, Keke Palmer, Eric McCormack, Tiffany Haddish, Jason Ritter and Melanie Lynskey.
“Over the years, this stage has welcomed extraordinary young artists I have championed … big voices that have gone on to shape culture and move the world,” Elton said in a statement. “This year, we’re thrilled to continue that tradition with Lola Young, a truly remarkable talent. It’s such an exciting time for new British artists, and Lola’s sheer brilliance has put her right at the forefront globally.”
Last year, Elton told Lola that he’d “bet his house” that her song “d£aler” would be a #1 hit. When it failed to top the chart, Lola posted an Instagram video showing Elton jokingly turning over the keys to his house to her. “Can we stay [over] the odd night?” he asked her. “No, sorry,” Lola responded. “It’s mine now.”
“It’s been incredible getting to know Elton and David, and I’m grateful for the support they’ve shown my music,” Lola said in a statement. “I’m proud to be part of a night that helps make a meaningful impact.”
On Sunday, Lola won the Grammy for best pop solo performance for her hit “Messy.”
Over the years, Elton’s party has raised nearly $124 million for the cause.
