Joanna “JoJo” Levesque’s New EP NGL Out Now + New Headlining Tour
Chart-topping and multi-platinum recording artist, actress and New York Times Best Selling author, Joanna “JoJo” Levesque’s new EP NGL is out now via BMG. In conjunction, JoJo also unveiled the video for her pop-infused bop “Ready To Love.” Fans can listen to/share NGL here and watch/share the video for “Ready To Love” here.
The new music echoes many of the themes covered in her New York Times Best Selling memoir Over The Influence, which is out now via Hachette Books. From being raised by parents who were both battling addiction and depression to emerging victorious in a never-ending lawsuit with her record label, Over The Influence chronicles the steps JoJo took to rebuild. At the end of the memoir, we find JoJo stronger than ever, as she proudly proclaims on previously released singles “Porcelain” and ”Too Much To Say.” Both the book and the forthcoming EP are a testament to her resilience and a celebration of her ability to overcome adversity.
In support of the new EP, JoJo is set to embark on an extensive run of headline North American dates next month. Kicking off on February 22, her Too Much To Say Tour includes stops at New York’s Terminal 5, Los Angeles’ The Wiltern, Philadelphia’s The Fillmore, Nashville’s Marathon Music Works, Chicago’s Ramova Theatre as well as a hometown show at Boston’s Roadrunner. Tickets are available for purchase at iamjojo.com while full tour routing can be found below.
Joanna “JoJo” Levesque is a chart-topping and award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, and first-time author. At just 13 years old, JoJo burst onto the scene with her self-titled debut album, whose breakout smash “Leave (Get Out)” made her the youngest-ever solo artist to have a debut #1 single in the U.S. That album went on to sell over four million copies and became the singer’s first Platinum record, which she followed with a string of additional accomplishments, including another #1 single, “Too Little Too Late” and another Platinum album, The High Road. Since then, she’s released several critically acclaimed studio albums, EPs, and mixtapes, and started her own label, Clover Music. In 2020, JoJo‘s song with PJ Morton, “Say So,” won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. JoJo has also appeared in movies such as Aquamarine and RV (opposite Robin Williams), reprised her role as Satine in Broadway’s Tony Award-winning Moulin Rouge! The Musical and is developing an original piece of musical theatre.

Jason Aldean & Luke Bryan Announce Additional Stadium Headline Dates: The “DOUBLE DOWN TOUR 2026”
Reigning ACM Artist of the Decade Jason Aldean and five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan today announced the “DOUBLE DOWN TOUR 2026,” an expansion of co-headlining stadium dates set to kick off this August. The tour adds four additional concerts in 2026 following their sold-out UGA Sanford Stadium show last week (4/25) that reunited the Georgia natives in front of 63,000 fans. Watch a recap of the tour date here. Openers Gavin Adcock, Dasha, Chase Matthew, Jon Pardi, Dylan Scott, and Lauren Watkins have been added as support across select dates, listed below. Openers Dee Jay Silver & DJ Rock are across all dates. The tour is promoted by Live Nation.
Both Aldean’s and Bryan’s fan club members will have ticket presales starting Wednesday, May 6, at 10 AM local time and continuing through Thursday, May 7 at 10 PM local time, followed by local team presales starting Thursday, May 7, at 10 AM local time. Tickets to the public go on sale Friday, May 8, at 10 AM local time. Tickets are available at JasonAldean.com and LukeBryan.com.
“If our time in Georgia was a barometric measurement of what’s ahead, these shows with Jason will make it one of the best touring years of my life. And the fans will hopefully feel the same way,” shared Bryan.
“Luke and I have each been at this, career-wise and as friends, for over twenty years, and have gotten to hit a lot of milestones along the way. We’ve gotten to share the stage plenty of times over the years, and playing UGA was just a preview of what’s coming for the rest of these shows,” shared Aldean.
The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level. Packages vary but include premium tickets, exclusive access to a backstage tour, invitation to the pre-show VIP Tailgate Lounge, VIP-exclusive gift item & more.

Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Aldean released his latest studio album, Songs About Us, last week (4/24). The album features the Georgia native’s 31st career #1, “How Far Does A Goodbye Go,” as well as his current Top 15 radio single, “Don’t Tell On Me,” the album’s title track, “Songs About Us” with Luke Bryan, and more, totaling 20 new songs that have been praised as his “best album in a decade” (Entertainment Focus). Having cemented his status as one of the format’s most consistent hitmakers, ACM Artist of the Decade Aldean’s latest studio album Songs About Us follow’s Aldean’s career-spanning collection 30 Number One Hits, which debuted last year at No. 4 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart — marking Aldean’s 13th Top 10 country album in 20 years. Known for his electrifying live shows and breakout crossover hits, Aldean is set to hit the road for his “Songs About Us” Tour in July following his Full Throttle World Tour, which marked his first ever headlining run in New Zealand as well as his historic headlining return to Australia.
Luke will wrap his ninth season as a celebrity judge on American Idol alongside Carrie Underwood and Lionel Richie on May 11, and he will kick off his headline “Word On The Street Tour” on May 29. Since the start of his career, Luke has garnered more than 27 billion global streams, 12 million global album sales, and more than 48 million track sales worldwide, with 32 #1 singles. He became a SoundExchange Hall of Fame recipient as one of the most-streamed artists in the organization’s 20-year history. He has received more than 50 music awards, including Most Heard Artist of the Decade, Artist/Songwriter of the Year, Artist Humanitarian, and an ACM Lifting Lives Award honoring his devotion to improving lives through the power of music.

Foster the People Announce “Good Mourning Sunshine” North American 2026 Tour
Foster the People have announced their “Good Mourning Sunshine” North American 2026 Tour, bringing their signature blend of indie pop and electrifying live energy to cities across the U.S. and Canada this fall, with support from Goth Babe and The Beaches on select dates.
Promoted by Live Nation, the tour kicks off on September 9 at Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix, making stops in New York, Chicago, Toronto, Seattle, Boston, Washington DC, Nashville, Atlanta, Austin, and Houston, among others, before wrapping up in Los Angeles at the Greek Theatre on October 23.
Foster the People’s latest album Paradise State of Mind marked a major milestone for the band, earning their third Top 10 on Billboard’s Album Sales chart and widespread critical acclaim from outlets including Billboard, NME, AP News, Forbes, Clash Magazine, and Consequence. In 2025, the band brought the record to life on a sold-out global tour spanning North America, Europe, the UK, and Latin America. Building on that momentum, Foster the People recently debuted a brand new live show at Coachella, one they’ll bring across North America on the “Good Mourning Sunshine” tour this fall. Featuring stunning visuals, the production transports audiences through a 1950s-inspired utopia that slowly unravels into a psychedelic dream – a commentary on today’s state of the world that is as arresting as it is thought-provoking.
