With the announcement of the new The Rolling Stones album Foreign Tongues, fans, of course, now want to know if they can expect to hear news of a tour next. According to Keith Richards, that won’t be happening this year.

When asked by The Associated Press if The Stones were going to hit the road in support of the album, Richards replied, “Oh, I mean we can talk next year." He added, "I mean, possibly, you know, I mean, at the moment, we're just sort of saying we finished the record, let's do this.”

He added that the band is "sort of basically considering what to do after" the release. But regarding a tour, he noted, "Not this year anyway.” 

Mick Jagger said he "would love to tour the album," adding, "I absolutely would love to, so I hope to do it as soon as that’s possible.”

Foreign Tongues, the follow-up to The Rolling Stones' 2023 album, Hackney Diamonds, will be released July 10.
