The Rolling Stones set to return tomorrow with new song under secret name
Mick, Keef and Ronnie are set to release their latest via white-label vinyl tomorrow (April 11)
After reports of their return under a secret name earlier this month, it’s now been confirmed that The Rolling Stones are set to make an imminent return with new music.
Reports earlier this month suggested that the venerable rock icons were set to make a return under the name The Cockroaches, with a number of QR codes spotted across London.
Those rumours have now been confirmed and the rock legends have a new single called ‘Rough And Twisted’.
The confirmation comes courtesy of The Times, which has heard the song and reports that Mick Jagger sings about driving “down a rough and twisted road all the way to Puerto Rico, where the tide ebbs and flows and you do feel that something sexual may be happening along the way”.
The group are also said to have chosen a vinyl-only “white label” release for the song from tomorrow (Saturday April 11).
“You just took me to a flyblown town in the middle of nowhere/ The smell was acrid and toxic/ Couldn’t breathe the air,” Jagger is reported to sing on the track. The report also claims it features “a rambunctious harmonica solo” from the Stones singer.
A clock stuck on April 11 has also been noted on their website, further confirming that an announcement will come tomorrow.
Their last album came with 2023’s Hackney Diamonds, but the report also states that another album will be released later this year.
The Stones last played the UK in 2022, with two huge BST Hyde Park gigs followed by a stadium show at Liverpool’s Anfield.
