The Rolling Stones’ new album is “done” and set for release in 2026, according to guitarist Ronnie Wood.
The musician seemingly confirmed the news of the record in an interview with “The Sun‘s” Bizarre column, NME reported.
“Yes you will be getting a new album next year. It is done,” Wood reportedly said. “It’s done.”
While he was signing copies of his new double anthology album “Fearless” at the flagship RS No.9 shop in Carnaby Street in London, Wood also suggested that he, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were also planning to tour again.
“Yes we are hoping to do some dates,” Wood reportedly said. “Hopefully we will be back out there but I am still waiting to find out myself.”
Wood’s statements come after Richards’ son, Marlon, teased earlier this year that the band had almost finished the record.
“They’re in town right now, recording,” he said in an interview with Record Collector in May.
“They’re in Chiswick [West London] or somewhere like that. I think they’re nearly done. They still maintain these ridiculous hours: after lunch until, like, two in the morning.”
Meanwhile, it’s been confirmed that the Stones are working with producer Andrew Watt who produced their 2023 Grammy-winning project, “Hackney Diamonds.”
“I’ve said it before, but it’s like working for Batman,” Watt told Rolling Stone earlier this month. “When the tongue is up in the air, you just go… I can say we did some recording together, but that’s all I can say.”
“Hackney Diamonds” was also the Stones’ last full-length project.
