U2's New Album 'Carnaval De Luz,' Out in November, Will Feature Dolly Parton on a Song

  • U2 announced their 16th studio album, Carnaval De Luz, set for release on November 13, 2026, featuring a posthumous duet with the late country music icon Dolly Parton on the closing track 'Torn.'
  • The band revealed the project during the week marking 50 years since drummer Larry Mullen Jr. pinned a handwritten note at Mount Temple Comprehensive School in Dublin seeking 'musicians to form band.'
  • Described as 'a tender country song detailing broken family ties,' the track 'Torn' represents Parton's final vocal recording and was co-written by the band, Parton, and Irish songwriter Johnny McDaid.
  • U2 also released a new single, 'Silencio,' produced by longtime collaborator Jacknife Lee, with an accompanying music video filmed in Mexico City earlier this year.
  • The band will receive the 2027 MusiCares Persons of the Year honor on February 7, 2027, in Los Angeles, marking significant recognition of their five-decade influence on music.
