Staind have a new song out. Ghosts arrived on Wednesday, October 14, as a stand-alone single with an official music video, and the band paired it with news fans have been waiting on: a North American arena tour running from March into April 2027. Here is what is confirmed on the band's official channels, every 2027 date and city, and where to get tickets and records.
Ghosts, the new single
Ghosts runs about three minutes and is out now on every major service through the band's official listening link, including Spotify and Apple Music. The release credits list Alchemy Recordings, the same label home behind 2023's Confessions of the Fallen and this summer's Break the Cycle (25th Anniversary Live). The artwork sets the tone fast: the band's scratched logo floating over deep red glass, with the shadow of a hand pressed against it from the other side.
The video premiered the same day on the band's official YouTube channel, As of tonight, Staind have not said whether Ghosts is the first taste of a new album, so treat it as a single for now. We will update this post if the band announces more.
Why this one matters
Staind spent much of 2026 looking back. The Break the Cycle XXV campaign celebrated 25 years of the record that gave the world It's Been Awhile, with a live album and a run of anniversary merch on staind.com. Ghosts is the first sign of what Aaron Lewis and company do next.
