Debbie Harry Announces First New Blondie LP in 9 Years
Debbie Harry has officially launched pre-orders for High Noon, confirming that Blondie will release their first studio album in nine years on April 10.
The announcement marks Blondie’s long-awaited return since 2017’s Pollinator, with High Noon now positioned as one of the band’s most significant late-career releases. Multiple reports confirm the album is Blondie’s twelfth studio LP and the first full collection of new material from Debbie Harry and Chris Stein in nearly a decade. (Art Threat)
Blondie High Noon album pre-order is now live
Pre-orders for High Noon went live this week across official Blondie channels, with vinyl, CD and digital editions expected ahead of the April 10 release date. Early fan outlets had previously confirmed only a spring 2026 launch window, making this the first firm release confirmation tied to the album rollout. (Art Threat)
The record has been produced by acclaimed producer John Congleton and features writing contributions from longtime Blondie collaborators as well as high-profile names including Johnny Marr and Glen Matlock. (Art Threat)
Debbie Harry returns with Blondie’s first album since Pollinator
For fans of Debbie Harry, the bigger headline is that High Noon represents her first major new Blondie studio release since Pollinator arrived in 2017.
At 80, Harry remains one of rock’s most recognizable frontwomen, and the album’s release has already generated heavy nostalgia and comeback interest online. The new LP is expected to lean into what insiders are describing as a more traditional Blondie sound while still retaining the band’s genre-blending instincts. (Art Threat)
High Noon will serve as a tribute to Clem Burke
The album also carries emotional weight as it will feature the final studio drumming of late Blondie drummer Clem Burke, who died in April 2025 after a private battle with cancer.
Burke played across the album before his death, meaning High Noon now stands not just as Blondie’s comeback record, but as an unintentional final document of the band’s classic internal chemistry. (Art Threat)
Will Debbie Harry tour for High Noon?
The launch of the Blondie High Noon album pre-order has immediately triggered fan speculation about whether Debbie Harry will return to the stage for a supporting tour.
No live dates have yet been announced, though music outlets note that any 2026 performances would mark Blondie’s first major live activity since 2024. With the album now entering full rollout mode, fans are watching closely for potential promotional appearances from Harry in the coming weeks. (Art Threat)
With High Noon officially on the way, Debbie Harry and Blondie are now poised for one of the most anticipated legacy-rock comebacks of the year — bringing new music, renewed attention and one final performance from a beloved band member back into the spotlight.
