Icehouse will mark the 40th anniversary of their landmark album Man of Colours with a 2027 Australian tour that doubles as their first indoor headline run in more than 20 years.
Across June and July 2027, the Australian rock band led by Iva Davies will perform the 1987 album in full for the first time — including songs they have never played live — alongside a set of career-spanning hits. “We’ve never played some of the songs from the album, so this tour is going to include some firsts for us as well as our fans,” Davies said. He noted the seated, indoor format marks a shift from the band’s recent output: “Compared to the big outdoor shows we’ve mainly been playing over the past 15 years, indoors means we get to play more songs and create an even bigger show for us all.”
The six-date run opens at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre on June 5 and travels to Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, wrapping July 10. Fan-club and PayPal presales begin Sept. 16, with general tickets on sale Friday, Sept. 18 at 11 a.m. local time via TEG Live. Special guests are to be announced. Beyond the album, the shows will feature signature tracks including “Great Southern Land,” “Hey Little Girl,” “We Can Get Together” and “Love in Motion.”
Man of Colours, released in September 1987, was the commercial peak of Icehouse’s career. The band’s fifth studio album, it spent 11 weeks at No. 1 on the Australian albums chart, also topped the New Zealand chart, and has sold more than one million copies. It won ARIA Awards for Album of the Year and Highest Selling Album in 1988.
The album also gave Icehouse their biggest U.S. success. “Electric Blue” — co-written by Davies and John Oates of Hall & Oates — became the band’s only Australian No. 1 single and reached No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, their highest-charting U.S. single, while “Crazy” climbed to No. 14. Both were also top 10 hits on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart, and Man of Colours reached No. 43 on the Billboard 200.

The Fray are returning to Australia and New Zealand in February 2027 for the Summer of Light Tour, less than two years after selling out their last run Down Under.
The eight-date trek pairs four indoor headline shows with four outdoor dates staged as part of the Lookout Festival series, and will conclude in Auckland for the band’s first-ever performance in New Zealand.
The indoor run, presented by TEG Live, opens at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena on Feb. 5 and continues through Wollongong, Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion and Auckland’s Eventfinda Stadium, with support from Dashboard Confessional and Australian artist Rachael Fahim. The Lookout Festival dates, presented by Face to Face Touring, add British indie-pop act Bastille to the bill alongside Dashboard Confessional and local acts Killing Heidi and Little Birdy, running across Torquay, Perth, Lake Macquarie and Sandstone Point.
The tour supports A Light That Waits, the Denver band’s first full-length album in more than a decade, released in March. It is also their first as a core trio of singer-guitarist Joe King, guitarist Dave Welsh and drummer Ben Wysocki.
“We had such an incredible time touring in Australia in 2025. The energy from those crowds was unbelievable,” King said. “To come back and be able to share A Light That Waits alongside the songs fans have grown up with — and to have our long-time friends Dashboard Confessional with us — is going to make these nights unforgettable.”
The Fray rose to prominence in the mid-2000s as one of the defining piano-rock acts of their era. Their 2005 debut album How to Save a Life was certified four-times platinum in the U.S. and remains one of the best-selling digital debuts of all time, powered by two enduring singles: “Over My Head (Cable Car)” and the title track. “How to Save a Life” became a cultural touchstone through its use on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, spent a marathon 58 weeks on the chart and has since been certified Diamond by the RIAA. The band’s 2009 self-titled follow-up debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and across their career they have earned four Grammy nominations and three Billboard Music Awards.
Tickets go on general sale Thursday, Sept. 17 at 10 a.m. local time, following artist and promoter presales earlier in the week.

Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber are celebrating eight years of marriage.
The couple marked their wedding anniversary Sunday (Sept. 13), with Justin sharing a sweet Instagram tribute to his wife.
“8 years until infinity ❤️ NEW BEGINNINGS,” Justin, 32, captioned the post. “I love you baby Happy Anniversary.”
The “Stay” singer’s post included several photos of the couple shooting pool together at what appears to be a local bar on Saturday, with the Texas-Ohio State football game playing on a television in the background.
Hailey, 29, playfully chimed in with a comment of her own, writing, “8 years of me being horrendous at playing pool,” accompanied by a pair of smiling face with heart-eyes emojis.
The Rhode founder also took to her Instagram Stories to share a cute snapshot of the couple sharing a kiss during their billiards-themed date night.
Justin and Hailey officially wed in September 2018 at a New York City courthouse after years of on-and-off dating. A year later, they celebrated with a more traditional wedding ceremony and star-studded party at the Montage Palmetto Bluff hotel in South Carolina, surrounded by friends and family.
In August 2024, the singer and model welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Jack Blues Bieber.
In recent weeks, the couple was among the celebrity guests celebrating the wedding of Finneas and Claudia Sulewski. The nuptials were held at San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, California, with Finneas’ younger sister, Billie Eilish, taking on the special role of officiating the ceremony.
Justin later shared a glimpse of the occasion on Instagram, posting several photos from the outdoor celebration on Aug. 30. The images included close-up selfies with Hailey as the pair sat together in front of a scenic mountain backdrop.
Justin also made headlines earlier this year when he headlined Coachella for the first time, performing songs from his Swag albums alongside some of his biggest hits. The singer later released Swag Live From Coachella (Weekend I) through Def Jam Recordings, a 22-track live album featuring guest appearances by The Kid LAROI, Tems, Wizkid, Dijon and Mk.gee.
“When in Rome,” Dove Cameron’s new single, tops this week’s new music poll.
Listeners voted in a poll published Friday (Sept. 11) on Billboard, choosing the singer’s whimsical love song as their favorite new music.
Bringing in more than 71% of the vote, “When in Rome” rose above new tunes streaming in from Jhené Aiko, Slayyyter, Bleachers and more artists.
Dove Cameron’s a very familiar name — besides building a career in television, where she flourished as a young Disney star (Liv and Maddie, The Descendants), she’s been recording music for several years as part of her solo endeavors — but her new single is the first listen off of what will actually be her long-awaited, debut full-length studio album.
The sunny sound of “When in Rome” likely has some in-love-in-real-life inspiration. Cameron’s engaged to Måneskin frontman Damiano David, who’s Italian and happens to have “jet black hair,” much like the muse of the feel-good new track.
“We should fall in love when in Rome,” Cameron sings in bliss. “Why don’t we get married, build a home?/ Something in the summertime/ Maybe all the cherry wine/ Makes me wanna take off my clothes/ And fall in love when in Rome.”
“When in Rome” arrived Friday with a playful music video celebrating romance, directed by Hannah De Vries. Cameron gushed about the co-stars featured in the sweet visual, writing on Instagram, “everyone showed UP and played with us, they were performerssss, they wanted to improv/dance/bring ideas and it made the whole 2 days a genuine joy. thank you also to the town cats, who played themselves. love creates alternate realities.”
She has yet to announce a title or release date for her upcoming album.
Trailing behind “When in Rome” on this week’s poll are Jhené Aiko’s Westside Whimsy album, with 11% of the vote. Slayyyter’s “Crank 2” and Bleachers’ “Caught Myself Believing” came in next on the ranking.
See the final results of this week’s poll below.
Ariana Grande found herself in a tight spot following the final show of her Eternal Sunshine Tour.
On Saturday (Sept. 12), the 33-year-old pop star and actress shared more than a dozen photos on Instagram following the completion of her 2026 Eternal Sunshine Tour, which wrapped up Sept. 1 at the O2 Arena in London.
Among the snapshots, Grande playfully revealed that she got trapped in an elevator shortly after her final show.
“Stuck in an elevator moments after our final show,” the “7 Rings” singer captioned a black-and-white photo showing her and team member CJ Robinson trying to pry open the doors.
In a second photo, Grande’s boyfriend, Ricky Álvarez, jumps in to help. “Continued (i almost had it tbh),” the Wicked star captioned the second picture.
Robinson jumped into the comments section to note that she “wouldn’t want to be stuck in an elevator with anyone else xoxo.”
In August 2025, Grande announced a select run of tour dates for the following year in support of her 2024 album, Eternal Sunshine, which spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
The North American arena tour opened June 6 in Oakland, Calif., and traveled through Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago and Montreal before concluding with 10 shows at London’s O2 Arena.
Grande announced in early August that she was taking “a step back” from public engagements amid “ongoing public scrutiny.” As part of that decision, she dropped out of the planned West End revival of Sunday in the Park With George, in which she was set to co-star.
Grande released her eighth studio album, petal, in July, and the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. In early September, she surprise-released petal (The Complete Live Album), a live album featuring performances of all the tracks from the studio album.
Ella Langley’s Dandelion returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart for a third nonconsecutive week on top, as the album rises two slots on the Sept. 19-dated chart. The set earned 67,000 equivalent album units in the United States in the week ending Sept. 10, according to Luminate, down less than 1% compared to the previous week.
That 67,000-unit sum is the smallest for a No. 1 album in more than a year, since SZA’s SOS returned to No. 1 for a 13th nonconsecutive week on the May 3, 2025, chart with 52,000 units.
Dandelion debuted at No. 1 on the April 25, 2026-dated chart, spent its first two weeks atop the list and has never left the top five.
Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, ADÉLA’s debut full-length studio album, PRIMA, debuts at No. 4; Ariana Grande’s chart-topping petal pushes 15-6 after a new deluxe edition dropped; and Beyoncé’s former No. 1 B’Day re-enters the chart at No. 8 after the release of its 20th anniversary expanded reissue.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 2,500 ad-supported or 1,000 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Sept. 19, 2026-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Sept. 15. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X and Instagram.
Of Dandelion’s 67,000 equivalent album units earned in the latest tracking week, SEA units comprise 57,000 (down 4%, equaling 60.21 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks; it holds at No. 2 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 9,000 (up 43%, it climbs 21-11 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,000 (down 16%).
Two former No. 1s follow Langley. Olivia Rodrigo’s you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love lifts 4-2 (64,000 equivalent album units, down 4%) and Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem rises 5-3 (60,000, down less than 1%).
ADÉLA’s PRIMA premieres at No. 4 with 56,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 31,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 25,000 (equaling 25.94 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 14 on Top Streaming Albums) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
The 22-year-old Slovakian singer-songwriter gained attention in 2023 when she participated in Dream Academy, the reality competition show that eventually launched KATSEYE. While she was one of the first contestants eliminated from the program, she would drop her debut single “Homewrecked” in 2024, and then “Superscar” soon after. In 2025, she signed to Capitol Records and launched her first EP, The Provocateur. She made her Billboard Hot 100 debut in August with the PRIMA track “Ain’t in LA,” which has scaled to No. 57 as of the Sept. 19-dated chart.
The new album’s first-week sales were bolstered by its availability across six vinyl variants (including a signed edition), four CD variants (including two signed editions), three download editions (including two with bonus tracks) and a cassette tape.
Noah Kahan’s chart-topping The Great Divide is up a notch to No. 5 on the latest Billboard 200 (47,000 equivalent album units, down 12%).
Ariana Grande’s former leader petal pushes 15-6 with 44,000 equivalent album units earned (up 36%) following the release of a deluxe digital download edition of the set with bonus live tracks.
Rod Wave’s Don’t Look Down falls to No. 7 after debuting atop the chart a week ago. In its second week, the set earned 42,000 equivalent album units (down 57%).
Beyoncé’s B’Day returns to the Billboard 200 for the first time since 2008, as the set re-enters the chart at No. 8 following its 20th anniversary deluxe reissue. The album was originally released in 2006, debuted at No. 1 and marked the superstar’s second leader.
In the latest tracking week, B’Day earned 38,000 equivalent album units (up 385%). Of that sum, SEA units comprise 22,000 (equaling 22.49 million in on-demand official streams of the set’s songs, it debuts at No. 19 on the nearly three-year-old Top Streaming Albums chart), album sales comprise 16,000 (it reenters at No. 4 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
B’Day was expanded with bonus tracks and reissued on two vinyl variants, two download editions and CD. Among the added cuts is Beyoncé’s latest Billboard Hot 100 hit, “Morning Dew (Donk),” which debuted and peaked at No. 26 in July. The track also hit No. 1 on the Adult R&B Airplay chart dated Sept. 12, marking her fourth leader on the list.
Drake’s chart-topping ICEMAN falls a rung to No. 9 on the Billboard 200 (36,000 equivalent album units, down 6%) and Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving retreats a spot to No. 10 (34,000, down 8%).

Queen Celine is back.
Celine Dion made a triumphant return to the stage this month as the singer kicked off her 26-date Paris residency at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre on Sept. 12. Dion delighted a joyous, sold out crowd with a setlist of both French and English-language songs comprising some of her biggest hits, along with personal favorites.
The Paris residency marks the “I’m Alive” singer’s first run of shows since announcing her diagnosis with Stiff Person Syndrome in 2022, which ultimately led to her cancelling a North American and European tour. Now on the road to recovery, Dion is staying in one place as fans flock to Paris to catch the diva on stage.

Dion is staying at the Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris while in town, holding court at the iconic luxury property near the Arc de Triomphe and Champs-Élysées. The French-Canadian singer has been seen posing for photos and interacting with fans who have been lining the street in front of the hotel each day in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the star. Le Royal Monceau has also played host to everyone from Michael Jackson to Madonna over the years.
As for the residency, while the concerts are being billed as Dion’s big return to the stage, the singer did perform at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she delivered a soaring rendition of Édith Piaf’s “Hymne A L’Amour” from atop the Eiffel Tower.

My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way has hinted that the band hopes to make a new album — its first in more than 15 years — during the closing night of their Black Parade tour in San Antonio on Saturday (Sept. 12).
Addressing the crowd at the Alamodome, Way framed the prospect as a hope rather than a firm plan.
“Just know that, like, we’ve kind of really always wanted to make another record, so we hope that life allows us to do that,” he said. “Cause you guys, honestly, you guys kept us alive so long. You guys deserve another record. I don’t know when it’ll be. But it’ll be awesome.”
The remarks stop well short of an official announcement — Way named no title, timeline or release date — but they represent the band’s most direct public acknowledgment of a potential fifth studio album since its 2019 reunion. A new record would be My Chemical Romance’s first full-length since 2010’s Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.
Since reforming, the band has released just one standalone single, 2022’s “The Foundations of Decay,” and has otherwise focused on touring, including the current run celebrating the 20th anniversary of The Black Parade.
The comments came as the band capped a hugely successful anniversary campaign. My Chemical Romance have been performing their 2006 magnum opus in full throughout the tour, which has since been extended into a global stadium run billed as The Black Parade 2026, with dates across North America, the U.K. and Europe.
Days before the San Antonio show, the band announced an expanded 20th-anniversary reissue of The Black Parade, due Oct. 23 via Reprise Records. The set pairs the original album with six bonus tracks — including three live recordings from a 200-capacity 2007 club gig in Hoboken, New Jersey, and the never-before-released B-side “Someone Out There Loves You” — and features three new pieces of art from original cover artist James Jean.
Released in 2006, The Black Parade remains the band’s commercial and cultural peak. The album was certified four-times platinum in the U.S. and topped Billboard’s Top Rock Albums chart, while its lead single “Welcome to the Black Parade” — a No. 9 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 — has been certified five-times platinum and endures as one of the defining rock anthems of its era.
The house went dark 47 minutes behind schedule, and 30,000 people went quiet. Céline Dion walked out in a black gown, crossed her hands over her face like a prayer, and began to sing the opening notes of “On Ne Change Pas,” accompanied only by pianist Scott Price and four violinists. She had been gone six years.
Saturday night (Sept. 12) was the first of Dion’s 26 Paris nights, a residency that runs into May 2027 at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, the largest indoor arena in Europe. More than nine million people had entered the lottery for a shot at purchasing a ticket to see her perform.
Within a few minutes of walking on the stage in Paris, Dion, who hadn’t put on a headlining concert since sharing her stiff-person syndrome diagnosis with the public, broke a promise she’d made to herself: She cried. Moved by the emotion of the moment, she asked the audience if they could hear her heart beating. Among the tens of thousands in attendance were famous guests including Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Aya Nakamura and Thomas Pesquet.
During the concert, Dion revealed how she’s feeling and delivered ballads, blockbusters, and even a dancefloor section in her set. She also performed her 2026 single, the French-language song “Dansons,” live on stage for the very first time.
Below are the nine best moments from the opening night of Dion’s concert residency in Paris. (Plus, see the full 29-song, two-and-a-half hour setlist from the Sept. 12 show here.)
BIGBANG brought its 20th anniversary run, the BIGBANG 2026-2027 World Tour ‘XX : COSMOS,’ to MetLife Stadium for the only East Coast date on the entire trek — and for the trio’s first show in the tri-state area since two nights at Newark’s Prudential Center in October 2015. G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung are touring the world together for the first time since 2017, and for the first time as a three-piece, a fact the night never sidestepped but instead absorbed into the celebration.
The set ran through 30 songs across roughly three hours with era-defining K-pop hits (“Fantastic Baby,” “Loser,” “Bang Bang Bang,” “Haru Haru,” “Lies”), solo showcases for each member (who shared their personal affinities for hip-hop, R&B, ballads and even Korea’s traditional trot music), and the live rollout of BIGBANG’s first new single in four years, “BiiiG,” after its official release on Aug. 19 to mark 20 years to the day since the group’s debut.
Behind all of it, YG Entertainment shared that the show came to life via a 23-ton mobile LED structure, a stage by Tony and Olivier Award–winning designer Es Devlin, direction from 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show creative director Mike Carson, plus a live band led by Wow Jones, whose work spans Usher, Rihanna, Janelle Monáe and Sabrina Carpenter.
From MetLife, ‘XX : COSMOS’ heads across the Atlantic to Paris’ Stade de France and London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for shows on Sept. 19 and 26, respectively, before swinging through Asia and Oceania on the world tour’s 36-show, 19-city run that stretches into February 2027.
From an unhinged “SOBER” performance to the promise to keep going “on and on,” the K-pop legends made their MetLife debut count. Read on for Billboard‘s best moments.
