Hackney Diamonds
The album is their first studio set of new material since 2005’s A Bigger Bang, coincidentally released on September 6 18 years ago. Since then, the Stones have continued to break box office records for fun on a series of sold-out global tours and released the Grammy Award-winning ‘Blue & Lonesome’ in 2016, which featured their brilliant covers of many of the blues songs that they helped shape his sound and it topped album charts around the world. Last year they thrilled a European audience of nearly a quarter of a million on their Sixty Anniversary tour.
Hackney Diamonds marks the Stones’ (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood) first collaboration with New York-born producer and musician Andrew Watt, who was named Producer of the Year at the 2021 GRAMMY® Awards and has worked with Post Malone, Iggy Pop and Elton John. The exciting ‘Angry’ is accompanied by a music video directed by Francois Rousselet, whose credits include work with Nike, Diesel, Pharrell Williams and with the Stones on Blue & Lonesome’s “Ride ‘Em On Down”.
The new promo clip stars Emmy-nominated actress Sydney Sweeney (The White Lotus, Euphoria, The Handmaid’s Tale). Watch Angry’s music video.
