Tegan & Sara, Murray McLauchlan Receive Governor General’s Performing Arts Awards

Paul McCartney is going back to the start on his upcoming 18th studio album, the nostalgic The Boys of Dungeon Lane. The 14-track collection announced on Thursday morning (March 26) is due out on May 29 through MPL/Capitol Records and is prefaced by the wistful first single, “Days We Left Behind.”

McCartney’s first release since 2020’s McCartney III is described in a press release as a look backward at the former Beatle’s formative years, revisiting those youthful times that “shaped not only his life, but the very foundations of modern popular culture. In a career defined by timeless storytelling and unforgettable characters, Paul now tells the most personal story of all, his own. The Boys of Dungeon Lane is his most introspective album to date and takes the listener back to where it all began.”
