Paul McCartney Announces Nostalgic New Album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane

Paul McCartney’s new album revisits his childhood and early Beatles days with a mix of rock and acoustic tracks, featuring McCartney playing multiple instruments.

  • On Thursday, Sir Paul McCartney announced his 19th solo album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, arriving May 29, alongside the lead single "Days We Left Behind."
  • Recording began five years ago with producer Andrew Watt, whose track record includes work with The Rolling Stones and Ozzy Osbourne, with sessions squeezed between touring in Los Angeles and Sussex.
  • McCartney described the record as his "most introspective album to date," reflecting on his post-war Liverpool childhood and early years with John Lennon and George Harrison. "This is very much a memory song for me," he stated.
  • Michael McGear McCartney, the singer's brother, confirmed the album title Wednesday after his son spotted promotional posters in Liverpool featuring a logo the younger McCartney designed.
  • Spanning a 63-year career, the 83-year-old McCartney shows no signs of slowing, though no concert plans for 2026 have been announced following his recent archival work celebrating Wings.
