Paul McCartney Unveils North American Tour Dates & Teases New Album for 2025

Paul McCartney BioSnap a weekly updated Biography. Paul McCartney is firmly in the headlines this week as he prepares to launch his first North American tour since 2022 extending the highly successful Got Back Tour. Variety and AOL report that McCartney announced a sprawling 19-date outing, kicking off September 29 in Palm Desert California and traveling through major cities such as Las Vegas, Nashville, Atlanta, Montreal, and concluding with two shows in Chicago on November 24 and 25. This tour follows his recent high-profile performances, most notably three sold-out shows at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom earlier this year. Ticket presales start July 15 with general sales opening July 18, fueling a major buzz among fans and music outlets nationwide. Teasing fans on social media, McCartney’s official channels and venues like the Alamodome in San Antonio have been hyping his October 25 show and overall return to the US stage, adding to the online excitement. Headlines everywhere are touting the news and emphasizing the tour’s significance, with AOL emphasizing that the Got Back run marks his first full North American trek in three years after pandemic disruptions. While prepping for these packed fall months, McCartney also let slip in a candid fan Q&A published by People that his New Year’s resolution for 2025 is to finish a new solo album. He revealed that writing and recording have been taking a backseat to tour commitments but hoped to change that soon. His last studio effort McCartney III arrived in 2020, so this promise of new material is another headline-maker for Beatles watchers and pop fans alike. For the holidays, he joked about loving to overdo Christmas decorations, offering a glimpse into his personal downtime. The broader Beatles conversation got a fresh jolt this week thanks to newly surfaced stories from John Lennon confidant Elliot Mintz. Speaking on Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan’s podcast, Mintz revisited the late-seventies dynamic between Lennon and McCartney, saying Lennon privately admitted jealousy over Paul’s solo chart success and massive stadium shows. Mintz also described what he believes was Lennon and McCartney’s last in-person visit in 1978, emphasizing how neither man seemed eager to rekindle musical collaboration at that time. This interview was widely reported by outlets like American Songwriter and ABC Audio, once again putting the legacy of their friendship—and occasional rivalry—center stage. Though business moves were overshadowed by tour mania, McCartney’s influence still ripples through education with the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, which he co-founded, playing a key role in the UK Songwriting Contest’s latest round according to M Magazine. On the personal front, Instagram and other social media accounts remained abuzz with excitement for ticket releases and show announcements, but there were no significant controversies or negative headlines involving McCartney himself.
