New wave band Blondie will release their first album in nine years, featuring the final recording of drummer Clem Burke.

The new record, entitled High Noon, will be released in February 2027 and will feature contributions from Johnny Marr, Glen Matlock, Zach Condon of Beirut, Lucius and others.

Fronted by singer Debbie Harry, the band has also released the first single from the record, Spectral Eyes, which is out now and was written by Marr, who contributed guitar.

The band’s 12th studio album marks the final recording of drummer Burke, who died in April 2025 at the age of 70 after a cancer diagnosis.The drummer performed on classic tracks such as Call Me, Heart Of Glass and One Way Or Another, scoring six UK number one singles and two UK number one albums.

Harry said: “This album is classic Blondie – an amalgamation of all our different influences and eras into something new.

“This music feels grounded in the present, shaped by who we are and how we’re living now.”

The band’s guitarist Chris Stein added: “It’s been a long, strange ride, and somehow here we are with another Blondie album.

“I’m not sure what the f*** I’m supposed to say at this point, except that we’re incredibly grateful for all your support over the years.”

Recording sessions for High Noon began in 2022 in New York City.

High Noon will be released on February 26 2027.
