Earlier this month, the band announced a sprawling North American tour. The band will traverse the country (with one date in Canada) in support of Hackney Diamonds. The dates kick off on April 28 in Houston, Texas.
In an interview with us also from October, Jagger revealed that the band hadn’t planned on waiting 18 years between albums. “We recorded a lot of stuff and we did a lot of sessions,” he tells us. “But there was no deadline, there was no ‘Let’s finish these next week,’ none of that. It was just ‘Do two weeks’ recording’ and then there were no plans to come back together again.”
