Month: May 2026

Post Malone is pressing pause on the start of his ‘Big Ass Stadium Tour’ with Jelly Roll and Carter Faith, pushing the kickoff back by about three weeks as he focuses on completing new music.

The delay is said to be tied to Malone’s upcoming project, The Eternal Buzz, a sprawling 40-track, two-disc album that will follow his 2024 country-leaning release F-1 Trillion. While no release date has been announced, Malone appears intent on finishing the record before hitting the road, likely hoping new material will energize fans ahead of the remaining tour dates.

Originally set to begin May 13 in El Paso, the tour will now launch June 9 in Charlotte, North Carolina. The shift means six early stops—El Paso, Waco, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Tampa, and Oxford—have been canceled, with refunds expected for ticket holders. Despite online chatter about slow ticket sales in some cities, Malone made it clear the change comes down to creative timing, not demand.

In a message to fans, Posty explained: “Looking at the upcoming schedule after stagecoach, I came to the realization that what we were trying to do, and what’s possible, isn’t really lining up. Truth is, I promised y’all beautiful people new music, and I don’t have the time to finish it before tour starts. We ain’t ready for tour just yet, so I’m making the decision to push the tour back about 3 weeks to get this music done. That being said, I’m so sorry to the folks who were planning on coming to the few canceled shows. I was looking forward to going nuts with y’all. That THAT being said, we been making some badass shit for this double album… and I can’t wait to perform for y’all again.”

The tour adjustment follows his recent appearance at Stagecoach, where he mixed country covers with his own hits. Before the rescheduled opening, he’s still slated to honor a handful of festival performances.

Madonna and Sabrina Carpenter are turning their Coachella moment into an official single. The release of their duet “Bring Your Love” follows its live debut during Carpenter’s second-weekend headlining set at the festival.

The collaboration first surfaced when Madonna made a surprise appearance onstage, joining Carpenter for a mini set that included “Vogue,” “Like a Prayer,” and the then-unreleased song. Madonna and Sabrina initially teased the single on Instagram, writing, “We’ve got something to say about it. Bring Your Love, April 30th 3:00pm PST”

The Coachella performance also carried personal significance for Madonna, who revisited a look from her original Confessions era. Reflecting on the moment, she told the crowd, “So 20 years ago today I performed at Coachella… so you can imagine what a thrill it is to be back 20 years later in the same boots… So it’s like a full circle moment, you know? Very meaningful for me.”

“Bring Your Love” is expected to be part of Madonna’s upcoming album Confessions II, due out July 3. The project marks her first full-length release since 2019’s Madame X and serves as a follow-up to her iconic 2005 record Confessions on a Dance Floor.  Presave Confessions II – HERE.

Josh Groban has revealed details of his upcoming album Cinematic, a movie-inspired project set for release on May 8 through Reprise Records. The ten-song collection celebrates iconic music from beloved films, featuring Groban’s interpretations of classics from movies like The Godfather, Casablanca, The Lion King, Stand by Me, and Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Produced by Greg Wells—whose credits include work with Dua Lipa, Adele, and Taylor Swift—the album was recorded in both Los Angeles and London. To introduce the project, Groban released a new rendition of “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King, featuring the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles; stream: HERE.

Groban explains: “There’s something incredibly powerful about the way a song or score can elevate a story and stay with you long after the credits roll. With ‘Cinematic,’ I wanted to honor that feeling — the nostalgia, the drama, the romance — while bringing my own voice and perspective to these timeless songs. Recording this album felt like stepping into some of the most iconic moments in film history, and I hope listeners are transported the same way I have always been when the lights go down and the music begins.”

The album blends nostalgia with new arrangements. Highlights include a Sicilian-language take on “Brucia La Terra” from The Godfather, an orchestral interpretation of “As Time Goes By” from Casablanca, and a duet version of “Unchained Melody” with longtime collaborator Jennifer Hudson. Another standout moment features Groban performing “Moon River” alongside his father, Jack Groban, who contributes the trumpet solo. Groban also delivers a powerful performance of “Skyfall,” showcasing his signature dramatic vocal style. See the album trailer: HERE.

Groban recently embarked on his global GEMS World Tour. The trek began with a sold-out show in Honolulu at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center Arena before continuing across Asia and Oceania with stops in Taipei, Singapore, Jakarta, Manila, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia. The tour headed to Europe with concerts scheduled in Dublin, London, Paris, Berlin, Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, and Amsterdam. North American dates begin in June, including shows at TD Garden in Boston on June 6, Madison Square Garden in New York City on June 12, and Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on June 16, with Jennifer Hudson joining as a special guest.

Groban will also return to Las Vegas later this year for GEMS: The Las Vegas Residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
