The Rolling Stones have announced a new studio album titled "Foreign Tongues," which is scheduled for release on July 10, 2026 [1].
The announcement marks a significant return to the studio for the legendary rock band, signaling their continued productivity and stamina after decades of touring and recording.
Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ron Wood discussed the project during an interview with AP journalist John Carucci in New York City [2]. The band members used the session to share the stories behind the new LP and address their future touring plans [2]. While some reports place the announcement event specifically in Brooklyn, the interview took place within New York City [2].
Production for the album was concentrated, with recording taking place over the course of one month [3]. This focused approach follows a promotional campaign that began earlier this year with a series of single releases.
On April 11, 2026, the band released new music to build anticipation for the full project [4, 5]. There are conflicting reports regarding the specific lead track from that date; some sources identify the single as "Rough And Twisted" [4], while others name it "Mr Charm" [5]. Additionally, a track titled "In The Stars" was reportedly released alongside the album announcement [4].
The band members spoke about their ability to maintain their creative drive and physical endurance. By focusing on the narratives within the songs, the group aims to connect the new material to their long history of rock and roll influence [2].
“The Rolling Stones have announced a new studio album titled "Foreign Tongues."”
The release of 'Foreign Tongues' reinforces the Rolling Stones' position as one of the few active legacy acts capable of maintaining a traditional album-single promotional cycle. By pairing a concentrated recording period with a staggered release of singles, the band is leveraging modern digital anticipation to sustain interest in a physical studio product.
