20 November Live @ De Roma, Antwerpen

22 November Live @ VIERNULVIER, Gent

Grammy winning artist Joe Jackson releases the second single from his forthcoming studio album Hope and Fury.
Fabulous People is a new song built on a tight, dance-leaning groove, pairing Jackson's melodic precision with the songwriter's classic bite and wit.

The new album Hope and Fury presents nine new songs recorded between Berlin and New York. Initial work began at Michael Tibes' Fuzz Factory studio in Berlin before Jackson returned to New York City to continue with co-producer Patrick Dillett at Reservoir Studios.

On the new album, Joe Jackson is joined by his longtime band – bassist Graham Maby (who has recorded and toured with Jackson since his debut album Look Sharp!), guitarist Teddy Kumpel, and drummer Doug Yowell – augmented by percussion of Peruvian musician Paulo Stagnaro.

The result might strike a fan as a cross between 2019's Fool, 1991's Laughter and Lust, and 1982's Night and Day.

Hope and Fury will be released on April 10th, 2026, on CD digisleeve, 180g vinyl LP gatefold, and digital.

This year, Joe Jackson and his band will tour extensively in support of Hope and Fury, with North American dates running from May to July, followed by a European tour from September to December.

Dividing his time between New York City and England's south coast, Jackson describes himself as "bicoastal" both geographically and musically – and the new album Hope and Fury as Bicoastal LatinJazzFunkRock.
