New single from Michael Monroe!

DATELINE: Tuesday November 25th, 2025 –
Michael Monroe releases the irresistibly anthemic second single ‘Disconnected’ from forthcoming new studio album Outerstellar, set for release on February 20th via Silver Lining Music.
‘Disconnected’ speaks of something that Michael Monroe feels passionately about: that live music is a rare and vital space for people to find each other in the moment.

“Technology was supposed to bring people closer together, when, in fact, people are more disconnected than ever. They're looking at their phones and their computers and downloading stuff” comments Michael Monroe. “And, you know, the Internet can't take away the experience of being at a live show. You're on stage, and you communicate with the audience who are there, in that moment. That's where the magic really happens, and absolutely no program or device or computer can reproduce that!”

Watch/Listen to ‘Disconnected’ here https://o4ipothbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001_cL6kb4UKAjcjPAWyZuOHY0vA04mDw7MYADs3dZWr7qOtgpJkhUcVuULXi_WQGB3fvXO3rfJnT443stT7MOIwUFePR_QY9181Zq6ZEeUG6Yu4VQ6vE4EyHejD0s4f58D4QbzrApZckHFdz3iFmoHdTC6XzJKEGMc&c=pA1DRld4oiF6eHw7ntZuKTV2wEn5RuhWMxPEzUsk3ab0LmX2kcJ_yA==&ch=wNRWASb00N9Bu9MVRfDZc4HtcCNjE7LUSnDSvF-6xZb0sNdMNvkaIw== – video by Leigh Brooks.

The new album Outerstellar, is an experience as much as a collection of great songs, a sweet smelling, leathery, glitter-shimmered, sweat-soaked ra**ch and punch wrapped in one of the great voices in rock ‘n’ roll. The harmonies and vibes roll effortlessly in silk scarves, lounging in leather pants with liquor and a smile on a beat-up sofa in those small AM hours. And the sheer attitude, which screams carefree (not careless!) confidence (not arrogance!), a cocksure sense of self-bathed in the sheer joy of playing real rock ‘n’ roll the right way.

The recently released first video and single, ‘Rockin’ Horse’, is a defiant blast against critics and judges and comes with one of the craziest Michael Monroe videos you’ve ever seen. “I am who I am and I'm not going to edit myself for your benefit,” Michael says unequivocally for anyone who might doubt that fact.

From loud crashing guitars to harmonicas, to gorgeous acoustic moments, you’ll sing, you’ll dance, you’ll shiver, you’ll shake, and you’ll smell this wonderful exhilarating record in all its weathered biker jacket incense-coated glory and you’ll also realize that whatever the hell is going on in the world right now, when you put this album on, it’s an instant escape to carefree days and an emancipation from worries, fears and woes.

Outerstellar will see a whole burst of life onstage when Michael Monroe and the band bring it to stages internationally over the next year. It is EXACTLY what rock ‘n’ roll in its truest sense is meant to be, in fact, just stop reading this, get off your ‘Rockin’ Horse’ and go see Michael Monroe on tour at your first opportunity! In support of the release of Outerstellar, Michael Monroe and band will embark on a UK co-headline tour with Buckcherry, kicking off in Southampton on February 24th.

DISCONNECTED Lyrics:

Welcome to the reception
Broadcasting our deceptions
We celebrate it all
We celebrate it all
A technicolour-coated bad dream
Borne out into the slipstream
We celebrate it all
We celebrate the fall

Cause there ain’t no heart in the static age
There ain’t no soul on the empty stage
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected
There ain’t no love on a TV screen
There ain’t no match for the gasoline
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected

An empty promise of attraction
But no real interaction
We climb and then we fall
We climb and then we fall
A bad feeling incubator
An unreliable narrator
We climb and then we fall
And we celebrate it all

Cause there ain’t no heart in the static age
There ain’t no soul on the empty stage
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected
There ain’t no love on a TV screen
There ain’t no match for the gasoline
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected

Cold lies in paradise
But that world don’t fit
There’s years and miles in every song
And I’m still not fakin’ it!

Cause there ain’t no heart in the static age
There ain’t no soul on the empty stage
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected
There ain’t no love on a TV screen
There ain’t no match for the gasoline
It ain’t what you expected
We’re all just disconnected

Half a century after it dominated charts around the world, Elton John’s seminal album Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy has received a 50th Anniversary Edition reissue, out now via UMe. The special reissue is available on multiple formats, including 2LP, 2CD, and 1LP, Live At Midsummer Music, Wembley Stadium 1975, which was the album’s live debut, as well as a booklet containing never-before-seen entries from Elton’s personal diary.

In 1975, Elton John was in the midst of a prolific run of unimaginable success, having broken into the mainstream in 1970 to become the biggest star on the planet. His 9th album in six years, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, would break new ground in a plethora of ways. A concept album devised with Elton’s longtime collaborator and lyricist Bernie Taupin, it told the chronological story of the early years of Elton (Captain Fantastic) and Bernie’s (the Brown Dirt Cowboy) musical careers in London as they struggled to break through. On the heels of this release is a golden milestone in music history: the 50th anniversary of Elton John’s legendary back-to-back performances at Dodger Stadium, held on October 25 and 26, 1975. These shows stand among the most iconic live moments in rock and pop history, capturing Elton John on his meteoric rise to superstardom and cementing his place as one of the greatest entertainers of all time.

Featuring the single “Someone Saved My Life Tonight,” the album went on to become the first in history to debut at #1 on the US Billboard 200 and the first to be certified Gold upon its release due to the number of pre-orders. It sold 1.4 million copies in its first four days and remained at the top of the chart for 7 weeks.

Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy was written aboard The SS France – at the time, the world’s longest passenger liner - as Elton was taking the leisurely route back to the US for a breather in a very hectic year. With a sheaf of words already provided by lyricist Bernie Taupin, Elton wrote the music using downtime in the liner’s music room, the Salon Debussy, committing everything to memory as he didn’t have a tape recorder, before recording at Caribou Ranch with longtime producer Gus Dudgeon.

Despite lacking the mega hits of its predecessors, Bernie’s wonderfully evocative lyrics combined with Elton’s achingly beautiful melodies to create a discrete masterpiece that sits alone amongst Elton’s work of the 70s, becoming one of the biggest-selling cult albums of all time. At its heart, it’s an album about the unbreakable kinship its writers shared, full of intense platonic love songs between the best of friends. Alan Aldridge’s iconic album artwork is one of the most instantly recognisable designs of the decade, placing Elton in the centre of a fanciful imaginary landscape, escaping from his rainy suburban bubble and riding his piano through the many distractions of pop stardom.

Speaking on the album, Elton John says: “Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy was the first album I’d ever made that was autobiographical, and it was the first time we’d gone into the studio with all the songs already written. We rehearsed it as a band, then went in and cut it more or less live. The band were at their absolute peak and you can hear it on the record. I think it’s the best thing we ever did. The songs were strong, Bernie’s lyrics were brilliant, and the atmosphere at Caribou was perfect. Seeing it go to Number One faster than anything I’d ever released felt like vindication, like the culmination of everything Bernie and I had fought for back in those bedsits in London.”

Speaking on the album, Bernie Taupin says: “Of all our recorded output Captain Fantastic has a very special place in my heart. Obviously it was emotionally rewarding as it chronicled a very special time in our lives. I’m not by nature one to wallow in nostalgia but hearing this album once again 50 years on reminds me of how very deep our bond of friendship and creativity ran.”

This 50th anniversary edition suite contains the 2016 remaster of the original album, previously unreleased session demos, plus Elton’s live performance of tracks from the album, recorded during 2005 for the album’s 30th anniversary. It also includes a 28-page booklet, containing sleeve notes and Elton’s never-before-seen 1974 diary entries.

Amongst the various formats available to fans is a recording of Midsummer Music Live At Wembley, 1975. This performance, featuring the 10 Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy tracks, marked the first time Elton had played the album live, and is available for the first time on vinyl. With a stacked bill hand-picked by Elton that included Rufus with Chaka Khan, Joe Walsh, The Eagles, and The Beach Boys, the 72,000 fans officially at Wembley Stadium (estimates put it closer to 100,000) were warmed up and ready to hear the hits. The decision, however, was made to play the newly released album in full from start to finish, and, despite a restless crowd, many of whom left, the result is a quite remarkable recording of what would become a firm fan favourite album.

The reissue comes during a groundbreaking year for Elton that’s included his 10th UK #1 album, Who Believes In Angels?, created with close friend and eleven-time GRAMMY-winning US superstar Brandi Carlile, as well as the release of the iconic live album Elton John - Live from the Rainbow Theatre with Ray Cooper in July.
