Red Hot Chili Peppers stream new album Return Of The Dream Canteen

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are streaming their new album, “Return Of The Dream Canteen”, in sync with its release on October 14.

First introduced with the lead single “Tippa My Tongue”, the project follows “Unlimited Love” as the California band’s second album of 2022, with both produced by Rick Rubin.

“Return of the Dream Canteen feels like a nod to the creative prosperity of a psychedelic desert,” says the group. “Something about the four of us wandering into a time and place that had less definition than normal led to more music. We just kept sipping away. The canteen was generous.

“Just when a blubberously funky baseline seemed like it might lie dormant without a dance partner, its song fellows would show up to party. John’s tenacious focus on treating every song as though it was equal to the next helped us to realize more songs than some might know what to do with. In a world where a single track release is typical, we decided to release back to back double records. We feel good about it. Pass the canteen.”


The Chili Peppers will wrap up the North American leg of a global stadium tour in support of both albums with an appearance at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Austin, TX on October 16, after which they will resume the series in January 2023 with shows in Australia and New Zealand.

Rush share Working Man video from Taylor Hawkins Tribute concert

Rush are sharing a snippet of pro-shot video of a performance of “Working Man” from their recent appearance at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert in Los Angeles, CA on September 27.

When the Rush members took the stage following an introduction by Jack Black, Dave Grohl joined them on drums alongside producer/keyboardist Greg Kurstin for the 1976 classic, “2112 Part I: Overture"; Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers stepped in for “Working Man”, with Danny Carey of Tool on board for the classic instrumental “YYZ.”

"For the first time since August 1st, 2015 we returned to the stage at the LA Forum, scene of the very last performance with our lost brother [drummer] Neil [Peart],” shares Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson. “This time it was for the second Taylor Hawkins Tribute and sitting behind the throne were 3 wonderful human beings, who also happen to be spectacular drummers.. Dave Grohl, Chad Smith and Danny Carey…. Talk about being spoiled… but the best, yet bittersweet part of this whole deal is that no one would have loved witnessing that more Taylor himself.

“Rest In Peace Hawk, as we keep Alison, Shane, Annabelle and Everleigh Hawkins along with the entire Foos Family in our thoughts."


Lee and Lifeson had previously performed at the London, UK tribute to Hawkins on September 3.

Watch a mix of pro-shot and fan-filmed video of "Working Man" below.

Red Hot Chili Peppers stream Eddie Van Halen tribute song

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are streaming “Eddie”, a new Eddie Van Halen tribute song from their forthcoming album, “Return Of The Dream Canteen.”

“Sometimes we don’t realize how deeply affected and connected we are to artists until the day they die,” explains Anthony Kiedis. “Eddie Van Halen was a one of a kind. The day after his death, Flea came into rehearsal with an emotional bassline. John, Chad and I started playing along and pretty soon with all our hearts, a song in his honor effortlessly unfolded. It felt good to be sad and care so much about a person who had given so much to our lives.

“Although the song doesn’t speak to Eddie by name, it talks about his early days on the Sunset Strip and the rock n roll tapestry that Van Halen painted on our minds. In the end, our song asks that you not remember Eddie for dying but for living his wildest dream.”


Eddie Van Halen passed away in 2020 at the age of 65.

Due October 14, “Return Of The Dream Canteen” will follow “Unlimited Love” as the California band’s second album of 2022, with both produced by Rick Rubin.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are currently playing a series of dates on the North American leg of a global stadium tour in support of their two latest studio records.

Red Hot Chili Peppers named Global Icon at 2022 MTV Video Music Awards

The Red Hot Chili Peppers were honored with a Global Icon Award during the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards on August 28.

Prior to receiving the honor from Cheech and Chong, the band delivered their first VMA performance in over two decades with versions of “Black Summer’ from the 2022 album, “Unlimited Love”, and “Can’t Stop” from 2002’s “By The Way.”

During the band’s acceptance speech, as Rolling Stone notes, drummer Chad Smith remembered his late colleague and friend, Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins.

“There’s another musical icon, global icon, and his name is my brother Taylor Hawkins,” Smith said after taking the mic from Anthony Kiedis. “I want to dedicate this to Taylor and his family. I love them, and I miss him every day. Fly on, Hawk. Fly on, brother.”

Smith will be among the artists appearing at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert on September 27 at The Kia Forum in Los Angeles, which will follow a September 3 event at London’s Wembley Stadium.

The Chili Peppers also won the Best Rock award at the MTV event, which took place at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ.

The band is currently playing shows on the North American leg of a global stadium tour in support of “Unlimited Love”; they will release another new album, “Return Of The Dream Canteen”, on October 14.

Due October 14, the project will follow “Unlimited Love” as the California band’s second album of 2022, with both produced by Rick Rubin.

“We went in search of ourselves as the band that we have somehow always been,” says the Chili Peppers. “Just for the fun of it we jammed and learned some old songs. Before long we started the mysterious process of building new songs. A beautiful bit of chemistry meddling that had befriended us hundreds of times along the way. Once we found that slip stream of sound and vision, we just kept mining. With time turned into an elastic waist band of oversized underwear, we had no reason to stop writing and rocking. It felt like a dream.

“When all was said and done, our moody love for each other and the magic of music had gifted us with more songs than we knew what to do with. Well we figured it out. 2 double albums released back to back. The second of which is easily as meaningful as the first or should that be reversed. 'Return of the Dream Canteen' is everything we are and ever dreamed of being. It's packed. Made with the blood of our hearts.”

The rocker – who appeared at center court with a customized bass featuring the Lakers’ logo and colours – later revealed that he personalized his unique version for one of the team’s icons who was in attendance at the city’s Crypto.com Arena.

“I was so happy to have had a brief conversation with Kareem Abdul Jabbar before I walked out there,” shared Flea on Instagram a few days later, with video footage filmed by his wife. “Knowing Kareem’s deep love for, and knowledge of jazz, I told him I would do a Charlie Parker riff, which I did in the second stanza (on the word ‘fight’.)

“Anthony, Chad and I were there and excited (John was excited at home) about the new Rhcp album UNLIMITED LOVE and everyone got a bitchin RHCP hoops shirt.”

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are streaming their new album, “Unlimited Love”, in sync with its release on April 1.

Produced by Rick Rubin, the band’s twelfth studio set marks the follow-up to 2016’s “The Getaway”, which was a Top 3 album in more than twenty counties, including the US, where it peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

The project sees the return of guitarist John Frusciante, who rejoined the lineup in 2019 after the group parted ways with Josh Klinghoffer.

“Our only goal is to get lost in the music,” says the band. “We spent thousands of hours, collectively and individually, honing our craft and showing up for one another, to make the best album we could. Our antennae attuned to the divine cosmos, we were just so damn grateful for the opportunity to be in a room together, and, once again, try to get better. Days, weeks and months spent listening to each other, composing, jamming freely, and arranging the fruit of those jams with great care and purpose. The sounds, rhythms, vibrations, words and melodies had us enrapt.

“We yearn to shine a light in the world, to uplift, connect, and bring people together. Each of the songs on our new album Unlimited Love, is a facet of us, reflecting our view of the universe. This is our life’s mission. We work, focus, and prepare, so that when the biggest wave comes, we are ready to ride it. The ocean has gifted us a mighty wave and this record is the ride that is the sum of our lives. Thank you for listening, we hope you enjoy it.”
