Multi-platinum, multi-award winning rock band Kings of Leon are back with their brand new album, ‘Can We Please Have Fun’, out May 10, via Polydor Records. The hard-charging lead single “Mustang” is available now, accompanied by a high-flying music video that sets the pace for the rest of the album.
Kings of Leon will headline BST Hyde Park on Sunday, 30 June, alongside special guest Paolo Nutini, with the full line-up still to be announced. Tickets go on sale at 10 am GMT on Wednesday, 28 February, and are available at www.bst-hydepark.com
‘Can We Please Have Fun’, as its title suggests, is a document of one of this era’s great rock & roll bands cutting loose, trying new things, and, yes, having some fun. Recorded at Dark Horse studio and produced with new collaborator Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Florence + the Machine), the album sees the band hark back to their gritty origins while simultaneously finding new gears. It’s the sound of a band unified in vision and purpose, freed from any expectations and the album the band says they’ve always wanted to make.
“It was the most enjoyable record I’ve ever been a part of,” Caleb says. “It’s like we allowed ourselves to be musically vulnerable,” Nathan adds. “I love it when a rock band is not embarrassed to admit that every song doesn’t have to be on 11.”

The group is gearing up for a monumental year, and they’re ready to take the world by storm. “When you have a band, there’s a bond like no other, and when you have family, you have a bond like no other,” Caleb says. “We have both of those things. I thought, if we put all our energy toward something, who is gonna stop us? Who can stop us except us?”
