Luke Combs Lands First No. 1 Album With 'What You See Is What You Get' | Billboard News
Video ThumbnailLuke Combs, Thomas Rhett and Morgan Wallen are set to headline Tortuga Music Festival when it returns to Fort Lauderdale Beach Park in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on April 8-10, 2022. This will mark a much anticipated return to its normal April slot for the festival, which was canceled in 2020 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This year, the festival shifted to Nov. 12-14.
Other artists slated to perform during the three-day festival next year include Breland, Priscilla Block, Brothers Osborne, Jordan Davis, Travis Denning, Walker Hayes, Randy Houser, Scotty McCreery, Nelly, Brittney Spencer, Tiera, Mitchell Tenpenny, Hailey Whitters, Lainey Wilson, Chase Rice, The Cadillac Three, The War and Treaty, and more.
Combs is the reigning CMA entertainer of the year, and on last week’s CMA Awards show, he debuted the new track “Doin’ This.” Rhett is the reigning ACM male artist of the year (and a former ACM Awards entertainer of the year winner) and recently announced he will release two new albums next year. Meanwhile, Wallen will launch an arena tour in 2022, including stops at Madison Square Garden, Staples Center and Bridgestone Arena. Wallen’s current single “Sand in My Boots” is at No. 13 on Billboard‘s Hot Country Songs chart.
Tickets for Tortuga Music Festival will go on sale Friday, Dec. 3.
Tortuga Music Festival launched in 2013, with the dual purpose of offering an ocean-side festival as well as raising awareness for marine conservation. Kenny Chesney, Eric Church, Gary Allan and Jake Owen were among the artists on the inaugural Tortuga Music Festival bill.
MUNA have officially shared full details of their long awaited fourth studio album, Dancing On The Wall, which is scheduled to arrive on May 8.
The news comes with the release of the record’s title track and its accompanying official video, giving fans their first real look at what the trio’s new chapter sounds and feels like.
To mark the occasion, the group are planning a run of intimate underplay performances in Los Angeles, New York and London during release week. It will be a special opportunity to catch MUNA up close before they step back onto larger stages later this year.
Opening up about the project, the band described the title song as a standout moment within their body of work.
They shared: “Dancing On The Wall is possibly our favorite song we’ve made as a band. We think it’s all the best parts of MUNA – it’s coming from a really emotional and lonely place, but the song itself makes us feel powerful and euphoric. It’s written in the moment that the clock strikes midnight at the ball, and you have to give up the fantasy. In this case, it’s the fantasy of loving someone or something that can’t love you back.”
The 13 song album was produced by Naomi McPherson, allowing the band to take full creative ownership of the sound and direction. It is a project that pulls listeners straight to the dancefloor while still keeping its vulnerability front and center.
MUNA, made up of Katie Gavin and Josette Maskin alongside McPherson, have continued to build momentum over the years and were personally chosen by Harry Styles as the opening act for his first solo tour. Since then, they have also performed with Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour, in addition to sharing bills with Lorde, boygenius and Phoebe Bridgers.
Dancing On The Wall follows their 2022 self titled album, which marked their first release as independent artists after signing to Phoebe Bridgers’ Saddest Factory Records in 2021.
Fans can stream the title track across all major platforms now. For tickets to MUNA’s upcoming shows, visit laylo.com/whereismuna/m/munatour.
