Columbia Records is excited to announce that Kings of Leon will release the highly anticipated fifth album, Come Around Sundown, on October 19, 2010 in North America and October 18 in the UK. It was recorded in New York at Avatar Studios and produced once again by Angelo Petraglia and Jacquire King. Come Around Sundown is the follow-up to the hugely successful Only By The Night, which sold over six million copies worldwide and garnered four Grammy Awards. It's yet another bold and expansive statement by the Nashville, Tennessee-based quartet who, in the last two years, have become one of the biggest bands in the world; also one of the most creatively restless. As proven throughout their storied career, Kings of Leon love to work. Whether writing, recording or touring, the band is constantly in motion. Once they finished touring in support of Only By The Night at the end of October of 2009, they went back in the studio to record in February 2010. This past June, they returned to their home state with a triumphant headlining slot at the prestigious Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, and then began a North American shed tour in July that will end on September 23. In two weeks, the band will headline the Outside Lands Music & Arts festival in San Francisco's legendary Golden Gate Park.

Kings of Leon are happy to announce that they will be returning to the UK this summer to play their biggest ever UK headline show in London’s Hyde Park on Wednesday 30th June. Their fourth album Only By The Night has now sold in excess of 6.2 million worldwide and all four albums have achieved multi-platinum success in the UK. Their previous tour of the UK included 4 sold-out shows at London’s 02 Arena, multiple nights at Manchester’s MEN Arena & headlining performances at the Reading & Leeds Festivals, all of which sold out in a matter of minutes. Only By The Night has remained fixed in the upper echelons of the sales chart for 72 weeks and counting, and is now certified 7 x Platinum with more than 2.3 million copies sold. It solidifies their incredible bond with UK audiences, who have long embraced Kings of Leon as one of the most important and loved bands of recent times. Earlier this month Kings of Leon won a further three Grammy awards, which included the highly coveted ‘Record of The Year’ for “Use Somebody” & brought their haul to four in total for Only By The Night. Speaking from his home in Nashville Tennessee, where the band are currently writing and preparing to record their fifth album, Jared Followill said "It's a great honor to be playing Hyde Park. It's something that a band can only dream of; to be put in the same category as the groups that have played before us is just unbelievable. Bring sun block and your earplugs".
