The band U2 BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
U2 wrapped up an extraordinary few weeks with the band receiving the 2025 Woody Guthrie Prize on October 21st, and the celebration continues to reverberate across media platforms. Bono and The Edge traveled to Tulsa, Oklahoma to accept the prestigious award, which recognizes artists who embody Woody Guthrie's spirit of social conscience and musical legacy. The pair participated in a wide-ranging conversation with legendary producer T Bone Burnett before delivering an intimate acoustic performance at Cain's Ballroom. They performed Running to Stand Still, Sunday Bloody Sunday, One, and Pride In the Name of Love—a setlist that demonstrated the band's enduring catalog depth. The entire evening, running 65 minutes total with 40 minutes of conversation and 25 minutes of performance, premiered on U2 X-Radio via Sirius XM on November 27th and has been airing repeatedly throughout early December, ensuring North American listeners can catch this historic moment.
Beyond the prize ceremony, the band continues building momentum on multiple fronts. Recording sessions for their upcoming album are reportedly nearing completion, with reliable sources indicating U2 is tracking toward a Fall 2026 release. The band is expected to tease new material with a single dropping next summer, kicking off what could become a full promotional campaign and potential tour. Bono's creative ventures are expanding too—he's joined the voice cast for an upcoming 3D-animated film called Outfoxed, featuring an all-Irish voice cast and exploring the adventures of a fox family on the run.
Meanwhile, band bassist Adam Clayton recently appeared in a new Sky Arts documentary series called Greatest Basslines, which premiered November 28th across Ireland and the UK. The three-part series explores the instrument's role in shaping modern music, featuring interviews and performances from bass legends including Peter Hook, Nate Mendel, and Melissa Auf der Maur alongside Clayton's contributions.
U2 Fan Club members have begun receiving their 2025 gifts, which this year feature a limited edition hoodie alongside the traditional array of music and collectibles. Additionally, a U2 tribute band called Pride In The Name of U2 continues bringing the band's sound to live audiences through immersive performances, keeping the legacy alive for devoted fans who can't catch the real thing.
