Childish Gambino is set to release his final album under the name of “Bando Stone & The New World” on July 19. This news comes alongside the release of the album’s first single, titled “Lithonia,” named after a city near Atlanta, where his TV show is based. “Lithonia” showcases a new sound for Gambino, exploring rock territory with heavy guitars and reverberating vocals.
To celebrate this new chapter, Gambino will embark on his previously announced New World Tour. The tour begins on August 11 in Oklahoma City, with stops planned in Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and Chicago before heading to Europe and Australia. Willow and Aamarae are set to join him as supporting acts for the tour.
Gambino will host an interactive experience to preview “Band Stone & The New World” on July 6 at Little Island in New York City. Tickets for this event will be available for sale starting tomorrow at 10 a.m. ET. In April, Gambino first revealed his plans to release two final albums during a conversation about his Gilga project. The first album, an updated version of his surprise release “3.15.20,” which quietly dropped in March 2020, was released in May under its original title, “Atavista.”
The announcement of the album release follows the premiere of the trailer for his upcoming film “Bando Stone & The New World,” which coincided with his appearance at the BET Awards
