Alabama Shakes have released ”Another Life,” their frist new song in a decade,signaling a full-fledged reunion for the critically acclaimed band. The track premiered today, May 3, 2024, alongside the proclamation of a 2025 North American tour.
The release marks a notable moment for fans who have eagerly awaited new music from the group as their indefinite hiatus in 2018, following allegations against drummer Steve Johnson. Those charges were dismissed in December 2021. The band’s return and new music offer a fresh chapter for Alabama Shakes, known for their powerful blend of blues, rock, and soul, and for frontwoman Brittany Howard‘s dynamic vocals and songwriting.
“Another Life” is available to stream now on all major platforms. The song’s release coincides with the launch of ticket sales for their upcoming tour, wich kicks off September 4 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
