Paul McCartney and Mick Jagger planned Rolling Beatles supergroup despite 'arch rivalry'
The Rolling Stones have released a cryptic Instagram post, hinting at the possible release of new music. The rock group shared a 13-second video to their 4.2 million fans on Friday, featuring their signature tongue and lips logo over a moving background including what appears to be different letters, words and symbols.
The posts come amid rumours that the band are preparing to release a new album, which would be their first since their 2023 Grammy Award-winning record Hackney Diamonds. Rumours of new music were first sparked last month when a series of cryptic messages including posters and QR codes linked to The Cockroaches popped up around London, believed to be connected to the band.
The Rolling Stones have also reportedly released music and performed gigs under the pseudonym The Cockroaches, with teaser videos hinting at the name shared to their Instagram.
The Cockroaches later released a limited-edition vinyl single, titled Rough And Twisted on April 11, which was reportedly only sold exclusively at independent record stores.
Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones have a long history of chart-topping albums and number one singles, including (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, Paint It Black and Start Me Up. The band has had various members throughout the years, with its current line-up consisting of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ronnie Wood. After the long-serving member Charlie Watts passed away in August 2021 at the age of 80, musician Steve Jordan has stepped in as the group’s drummer.
