U2 , 360 Tour

The boys have been recently mastering their next project at the Electric Lady Studios in Manhattan.

The new ( yet to be named ) album, the 13th album in U2’s discography. Danger Mouse has been enlisted to produce this product.

In addition to Bono, The Edge,
Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr., Coldplay’s Chris Martin was spotted
on the scene, potentially as a featuring artist on the new album.
Immediately following the wrap-up of the album, the band hosted a
celebratory bash atop the studio.

Some
famous faces turned up to wish the band success on the new album
including Julian Casablancas of The Strokes and supermodel Helena
Christensen.

At this rooftop
celebration, the band also recorded an acoustic version video of ‘Sunday
Bloody Sunday’ featuring Clayton on piano for “global participatory art
project” Inside Out.

Though no official release date has been stated.
