KATSEYE is extending its Wildworld Tour with a new leg across Asia, Australia and New Zealand in early 2027, Live Nation announced. The run kicks off January 27 at Yokohama Arena in Japan and includes stops in Manila, Hong Kong, Seoul, Cebu, Singapore, Bangkok and Taipei before moving to Sydney and Melbourne and closing March 5 at Spark Arena in Auckland.

The additional dates follow what the group’s camp describes as sold-out runs across Europe, the UK and North America, where the tour is currently underway after launching September 1 at Dublin’s 3Arena. Presales for the new shows begin November 4 for Australia and New Zealand and November 10 for most Asian markets, with general onsale dates following through mid-November via katseye.world.

The tour extension comes on the heels of KATSEYE’s new EP, Wild, released via HYBE x Geffen Records, which the label says debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The EP includes the Hot 100 hits “PINKY UP” and “Animal,” as well as the track “Unloveu,” co-written by member Lara Raj with Ross Golan and Amy Allen.

Steven Page, co-founder of Barenaked Ladies, has released “Cheese Log,” the debut single from his upcoming holiday album Steven’s Greetings, due November 13 via Fresh Baked Goods. According to the announcement, the song grew out of an improvised joke during a soundcheck with longtime collaborators Craig Northey and Kevin Fox before developing into one of Page’s proudest recordings.

Steven’s Greetings comprises ten tracks mixing new originals, holiday standards and newly recorded versions of songs from Page’s catalog, including “Hanukkah Blessings” and “Blow Blow Thou Winter Wind,” both previously released with Barenaked Ladies. The album was recorded primarily with Northey on guitar and Fox on cello, and features appearances by Page’s three sons.

Page will support the release with a holiday tour running November 17 through December 22, with stops across the U.S. and Canada including New York, Toronto and Victoria, where he will perform with the Victoria Symphony. Several dates, including shows in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Natick, Massachusetts, are listed as sold out, according to the announcement.

Nashville singer-songwriter Drew Ryder Smith has released his new album The Deep End, marking a return to performing after more than a decade spent primarily writing for other artists. Smith, whose songs have been recorded by Merle Haggard and Randy Houser, previously shared stages with Lady A, Don Williams and Lee Brice earlier in his career.

The album was produced by Glenn A. Tabor III and includes guest appearances from Steve Earle on the track “Textile Town,” inspired by a South Carolina textile community and Smith’s family history, and from bluegrass artist Rhonda Vincent on “Lie with Me.” Orchestral and choral parts for the song “Do It Again” were recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London.

Smith has said the record incorporates personal audio, including recordings of his father preaching and old voicemails from relatives, some of whom have since died, woven between tracks. The Deep End is out now on digital streaming platforms, and Smith has tour dates scheduled through November, including stops in New York, Asheville, Charlotte and Knoxville.

Bryan Adams has released a new single, “Lake Ontario,” the latest preview of his forthcoming studio album “How’s It Goin’,” due November 6 via BAD Records. The track pairs a story about the Great Lake with pointed commentary on current political distractions, according to Adams, who frames the song as a statement that some things endure beyond political turmoil.

“How’s It Goin'” is described by Adams as a tribute to Canada, drawing on Celtic folk and rock influences to explore the country’s landscapes, history and culture across 13 tracks. The album includes songs such as “51st State,” “Diesel and Dirt,” “Iron Ribbon,” “The Battle of Lundy’s Lane” and “The Ballad of Terry Fox.”

The release will be available digitally, with “Lake Ontario” as a bonus track, as well as on CD and vinyl in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves. A hardback book edition featuring the album on CD along with lyrics and imagery tied to the record’s themes will also be offered.

Metallica and the American Red Cross are hosting a three-day blood drive at Mohegan Sun ahead of the band’s concerts there celebrating the venue’s 25th anniversary. Donors can book appointments for Nov. 18 or Nov. 20-21 at the Uncas Ballroom, with donors of all blood types welcome, though the Red Cross says type O donors are especially needed. Those who donate will receive an exclusive Red Cross x Metallica T-shirt designed by Squindo while supplies last.

The partnership builds on a campaign that began in April 2025 during the U.S. leg of Metallica’s M72 Tour and expanded into the band’s Give Where You Live initiative. According to the Red Cross, the collaboration has collected more than 25,000 blood donations in the U.S. and roughly 93,000 worldwide, including drives held at international tour stops.

Mohegan Sun president and general manager Jeff Hamilton and American Red Cross Connecticut and Rhode Island Region CEO Richard Branigan both highlighted the drive as a way to pair fan enthusiasm for the upcoming shows with a charitable cause during a period when blood donations typically decline.
