FCUKERS ANNOUNCED AS SPOTIFY'S NEXT RADAR US ARTIST

BREAKOUT DUO FCUKERS NAMED SPOTIFY'S NEXT RADAR US ARTIST



EXCLUSIVE MONTH-LONG CAMPAIGN TO FEATURE A LONGFORM INTERVIEW, ORIGINAL VIDEO CONTENT, AND AN INTIMATE LIVE PERFORMANCE



(June 9th, 2026) - Today, Spotify names NY-based duo Fcukers its newest RADAR US artist, joining previous honorees Tyla, Peso Pluma, and Doechii. The campaign will roll out this month highlighting the band’s creative partnership and will feature an exclusive RADAR performance session featuring two live recordings, as well as one of the band’s first longform interviews to date.


The announcement arrives as the band wraps their sold-out headline tour across North America and Europe and continues a breakout year fueled by the release of their debut album, Ö, which was praised by tastemakers including Zane Lowe, BBC Radio 1, Rolling Stone, Billboard, Pitchfork, and The New York Times, while landing on “Best of The Year” lists from FADER and Consequence.



The announcement follows a string of major live moments for the band, including a recent performance on Later... with Jools Holland and their television debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.


Through the upcoming month-long RADAR campaign, fans will get their most intimate look yet at Fcukers, including an exclusive live performance, a candid interview, and new content that pulls back the curtain on the duo behind one of the biggest breakout stories of this year.


Since their debut album Ö, Fcukers have released a fully reimagined version of Angèle ft Justice’s cult-favorite single “What You Want.” They later brought the track to life onstage in Paris joined by Angèle for a surprise special performance. The release was followed by their latest remix of Tove Lo’sI’m your girl right?” which further expands the band’s growing catalog of collaborations spanning ”Bon Bon” with MGMT and “Los Angeles” with James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem, as well as upcoming remix of Sabrina Carpenter’s “House Tour” on a 7-Inch vinyl.


Fresh off their appearances at Primavera Sound and Governors Ball this past week, the duo will perform at Bonnaroo on June 14th before joining Harry Styles on the Together Together Tour in Brazil on July 17th, 18th, 21st and 24th, and RÜFÜS DU SOL’s North American Tour including stops in Grand Rapids, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, and Toronto. Fcukers will continue their massive festival run later this year at Shaky Knees, Portola, and Austin City Limits.


As Fcukers continue their breakout year, Spotify's RADAR spotlight arrives as both recognition and affirmation - an acknowledgment of what fans have already known for some time: Fcukers are not simply one of the most exciting new bands to emerge from New York in recent years, but one of the defining new voices shaping the future of music.

https://fm.militariegun.com/gstg


(June 9, 2026) - Los Angeles-based Militarie Gun announces their headline North American tour supporting the recently released album God Save The Gun. The tour, aptly named 20 Songs for 20 Dollars, sees the band selling tickets for just $20 across all dates. The 27-date tour kicks off this September in Oklahoma City with stops in Austin, Miami, Nashville, Philadelphia, Toronto, Chicago, Vancouver and more before wrapping up with a hometown show in Los Angeles on October 15th. Militarie Gun will be supported by Softcult, Shady Nasty and Dazy on select dates. Tickets go on sale June 12th at 10am local time HERE


Speaking about the tour, vocalist Ian Shelton says, “The world is falling apart and everyone is broke, so we’re bringing you 20 Songs for 20 Dollars. We can’t control ticketing fees, but we can control whether or not the ticket is affordable to begin with. We’re excited to finally do something we’ve been talking about for a long time.” 


Earlier this year, Militarie Gun shared their NPR Tiny Desk Concert Performance, where they performed stripped back and new versions of songs from throughout their discography, including “B A D I D E A,” “God Owes Me Money,” “Throw Me Away,” “Don’t Pick Up The Phone,” “Thought You Were Waving,” and “Do It Faster.” 


Militarie Gun recently wrapped up their run of explosive shows with Joyce Manor across North America and are currently in the United Kingdom and Europe performing headline shows in Brighton, Berlin, and more. The band is also slated to perform various festivals across Europe and North America this year, including 2000 Trees in the UK, Rocklahoma in Oklahoma, Four Chord Music Festival in Pittsburgh, and CBGB Festival in New York City. This October, Militarie Gun will support Sex Pistols for a string of west coast dates. Full live dates can be found below. 

 

Militarie Gun released their album God Save The Gun via Loma Vista Recordings last October, which includes the aforementioned track “God Owes Me Money,” which arrived as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World and was described by Rolling Stone as “tragically catchy” along with the tracks “B A D I D E A” and “Throw Me Away,” both of which arrived alongside videos directed by vocalist and primary songwriter Ian Shelton. Militarie Gun graced the digital cover of Highsnobiety, where in the story the band discussed the making of God Save The Gun, Shelton’s role as bandleader, and the ways in which substance abuse and relationships to addiction serve as narrative throughlines across the album. Shelton also sat with SPIN Magazine to discuss the themes of God Save The Gun, the meaning of the cover artwork, and more.


See full live dates and album details below and stay tuned for more from Militarie Gun coming soon.

Legendary British singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock shares his new song, "How To Feel Alright." The new rocker heralds the eagerly awaited arrival of Hitchcock’s 25th solo studio album and first collection of all-new original songs in close to four years, The Confuser, arriving everywhere on Friday, July 24. Pre-orders/pre- are available now.


"I love to rock out my feelings - all of my feelings: up and down, positive and negative, flaming and somber," says Hitchcock. "It’s what music is for, after all: to unleash your desires, frustrations, anguish, and delight in three-minute bursts that some people can even dance to.


"The strongest relationships for me are the ones based on conflict, not quiet acquiescence. The more intense you feel about someone, the more they matter to you. If you never truly confront a person, can you ever get that close to them? I guess that’s what this song is celebrating, in a rock’n’roll way.


"The band plays fabulously on this one. The slide guitar on the choruses and the dive-bomb sound at the very end of the track were played by my old Soft Boys bandmate, Kimberley Rew. I’m happy to say the lead guitar is played by me... yaysville!


"I shared this song with Johnny Marr, and his comment was, “Bo Syddley."


LISTEN TO "HOW TO FEEL ALRIGHT"


PRE-ORDER THE CONFUSER


The Confuser was initially announced with the album's first single, "I Am This Thing." In his sixth decade as an artist, Robyn Hitchcock manages to still illuminate and mystify, bemuse and philosophize, unlike any other before or since. The ebulliently self-anthemic “I Am This Thing” sees him asserting his very being while pondering the meaning of life itself: why are we here, how long are we here for, and what was the point anyway?


“If you go back through my songs, one of the things that I’ve always written about is the shock of existence,” says Robyn Hitchcock. “Oh God, I’m here. Oh wow, I’m encased in me. It’s a sort of existential flash – it could be a flash of joy or a flash of revulsion or a flash of horror, but, oh God, I am actually this thing. And eventually I won’t be. My lease is temporary. My visa will expire. My lease will run out. My spirit will move on, the energy that comprises me will flee into the ether and become part of a pile of leaves somewhere in Delaware. Who knows where the soul goes? You can see the life going out of somebody when they pass on, but where it goes, nobody knows. But while you’re in it, you’re in it. So this song is just a celebration of that.”


"I Am This Thing" was followed by the release of the second single, "My Dead Astronaut."


"Heroes keep you guessing sometimes," reflects Hitchcock. "'My Dead Astronaut' is a rockin’ party song for a new dystopia. And a nod to J.G. Ballard."

LISTEN TO "MY DEAD ASTRONAUT"


Recorded at studios in Hitchcock’s longtime home base of Nashville USA by Brad Jones (Josh Rouse, Chuck Prophet, Jill Sobule) and Jordan Lehning (Kacey Musgraves, Rodney Crowell, Emma Swift), The Confuser features crack accompaniment from Music City session experts including electric guitarist Jeremy Fetzer (Steelism, Lambchop, Kesha), bass guitarist Todd Bolden, and drummer/percussionist Eric Slick (Dr. Dog, Adrian Belew, Taylor Swift). Special guests include cherished friends Gillian Welch (contributing vocals to “Ghost in Sunlight”) and Kimberley Rew (co-founder, with Hitchcock, of The Soft Boys), who lends additional guitar to “Breathless,” “How To Feel Alright,” “Ghost in Sunlight,” and “Growing From The Ruins.” The energetically head-on backing propels a dazzlingly dynamic collection of typically perceptive new songs that traverse familiar signposts near and dear to Hitchcock’s creative heart – the significance of love, the mysteries of the cosmos, and all the abstract accidents that happen between the luck of birth and the bitter end. From the characteristically skewed “My Dead Astronaut” to the jaunty music hall psychedelia of the album-closing “Wasted,” The Confuser manifests all the accrued wisdom and hard-earned knowledge of a veteran songwriter, presented with the vivacious gusto and driven delight of an artist still with something to prove. As ever, Hitchcock proudly carries the flame for a particular brand of traditional singer-songcraft, a deeply personal penchant sparked by his Summer of Love adolescence (detailed in his acclaimed first memoir, 1967: How I Got There and Why I Never Left) and furthered throughout the myriad cultural metamorphoses that followed. With The Confuser, Robyn Hitchcock upholds the enduring value of those halcyon influences, while managing once again to imbue it all with his singular wit and keenness of vision.


“One of my roles has been to keep a certain kind of music alive,” says Hitchcock. “I didn’t invent this field of music, but I’ve perpetuated it. Arguably, the Soft Boys did that, amongst other things. It wasn’t peace and love or ‘oh wow, man, look at these trippy flowers,’ it wasn’t any of that. It was simply a certain kind of sound and a certain kind of feeling that was in those records made between 1965 and 1968, which are now seen as the Big Bang of classic rock, or whatever you want to call it. I’ve just kept that approach to music alive – verse, chorus, middle eight, harmonies, guitar solos, and free-range lyrics. I’m very lucky to be able to do this. I can’t believe I’m still allowed to do it. But nobody’s stopped me, and I’m kind of touching wood that I can carry on doing it a bit longer.”


The seemingly indefatigable Hitchcock will introduce fans to The Confuser – along with classic songs from across his illustrious body of work thus far – on a busy international tour schedule that includes both solo performances and full-band shows in North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe through October. Additional dates will be announced. For complete details and ticket availability, please visit www.robynhitchcock.com/tour-1.
