More than 52 years since the release of their last record, the surviving members of English blues-rockers Faces are in the process of preparing a new album.
Word of the forthcoming LP was shared by Faces drummer Kenney Jones in an interview with The Telegraph. The article itself notes that the band have teased an album for four years now, with Rod Stewart confirming its existence in 2021, and again claiming in 2024 that “We haven’t finished it yet, but we’ll finish it this year, I promise.”

In his latest interview, Jones revealed that he and his bandmates have recorded “about 11 tracks” at RAK Studios in London. Jones also confirmed that musician and television personality Jools Holland also contributed to one track. “Not all of them are going to be right [for the album],” he noted. “But most of them are good.

“I can’t see it coming out this year,” he added. “But I can see it coming out next year. Everyone’s doing different things. We do little snippets [of recording] here and there. Then all of a sudden, The Stones are out [on tour] again, Rod’s out again…”
First formed in 1969 as the result of a merger between members of Small Faces and the Jeff Beck Group, Faces existed for just six years before guitarist Ronnie Wood left to join the Rolling Stones, and Stewart continued his ongoing solo career.
The group would release four albums throughout their career, with 1971’s A Nod Is As Good As a Wink… to a Blind Horse becoming their most successful, hitting No. 6 on the Billboard 200. The record would spawn the single “Stay with Me,” which peaked at No. 17 on the Hot 100, and would be followed by their final studio release, Ooh La La, in 1973.
While founding bassist Ronnie Lane would pass away in 1997, keyboardist Ian McLagan would also pass in 2014. Though a series of reunions would take place in the years since their initial dissolution, Faces have been considered something of a going concern since their performance of “Stay With Me” at the 2020 Brit Awards.
Stewart is currently scheduled to perform in the Sunday evening Legends Slot at the 2025 Glastonbury Festival, with a series of Las Vegas residency dates also set to run until October.

On Monday (Feb. 27), the season 3 trailer premiered set to the tune of The Stones’ 1969 classic “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.”
The trailer kicks off with AFC Richmond coach Ted Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, gearing up for a new football season. The coach, however, has a series of obstacles ahead this season, thanks to a few bumps in the road.
The official summary of the season, per Apple TV+, reveals that “AFC Richmond faces ridicule as media predictions widely peg them to finish last in the Premier League,” and to make matters worse, Nate (Nick Mohammed), a former Richmond assistant coach, is lending his skills to Rupert (Anthony Head) at West Ham United. As Lasso deals with his personal issues and life back home in the States, the outlook for Richmond appear to be bleak, but of course, “Team Lasso is set to give it their best shot anyway.”
“You Can’t Always Get What You Want” — included on The Rolling Stones’ 1969 album Let It Bleed — sets the tone for the trailer, and features Mick Jagger’s melancholy vocals, singing, “You can’t always get what you want/ But if you try sometime you’ll find/ You get what you need.” The track peaked at No. 42 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1973.
Watch the trailer for Ted Lasso season 3, premiering March 15 on Apple TV+, above.
