Who doesn't love the Beatles? They have to be one of the single most influential bands of all time. And if you like the Beatles, it's pretty much a given that you like Paul McCartney as well.
But, there's levels to this. Sure, you might like Paul McCartney, but do you love his work? To the point that he'd personally invite you to a private intimate listening party? Well, that's not a camp I personally fall into, but if you do - good on you!
In any case, the New York Post reported that Paul McCartney is set to perform this listening party today, April 16, at 5pm. Loyal superfans were directed to the Capitol Records Building in Hollywood for the exclusive event.
Upon arriving, attendees will be taken straight to a private residence. But, how do we know this, you ask? Well, Paul McCartney's team emailed his top fans to reveal the listening party.
The email reads, "To say thanks for being a valued member of the Paul McCartney community, we would love to invite you to a special listening event of Paul's new album The Boys of Dungeon Lane before anyone else."
The email then reveals the time and date of the event, in bold font. "THURSDAY APRIL 16TH / TIME 5PM PDT / SECRET LOS ANGELES LOCATION", alongside a button asking to confirm their attendance.

Paul McCartney's Event Is Looking To Be Very Secretive
But, things are looking super secretive. Invitees are subjected to a load of pretty restrictive rules.
For one, they can't bring a guest with them. They also can't bring their phones with them, and have to sign an NDA at the door saying they won't leak any details. Pretty stifling stuff, right? But personally, that's a price I'd be willing to pay to get to experience some new stuff from Paul McCartney.
The album is set to release on the 29th May, 2026, according to McCartney's website. The website reveals that "With The Boys of Dungeon Lane, Paul turns the lens inward, revisiting the formative years that shaped not only his life, but the very foundations of modern popular culture." Pretty exciting stuff, right?
