U2 are currently working on a new single, which they hope to have out this Fall, to coincide with their shows at the Sphere in Las Vegas. The single will feature the full band, including Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, a question we often hear since they were both more in the background on the recording of the band’s recent Songs of Surrender release.

We do not currently have a title or a track listing for the upcoming single. At this time Universal Records has not received a final master for the single, and the band continues to work on this item. Likewise a release date is not known, although we suspect if they are trying to tie into the performances at the Sphere, September 29 would be a good guess. (It’s a Friday and also the day new releases come out.)

Recording of the single reportedly began in studio this summer in France. There are reports that Steve Lillywhite worked with the band in studio there over the summer. However, we are told work continues on the single, and we are told that the band will be back in studio in Los Angeles this week with Lillywhite to finish off the track(s) for the singles. Lillywhite has also been attending rehearsals at the Sphere in Las Vegas as final preparations are underway for the shows there.

With just under three weeks to go until the first performances at the Sphere the band would be facing a tight window if they do want to get the song out before that time. But we have seen in the past that the band are capable of a quick turn around between recording and release. The version of “You’re the Best Thing” that was released was mixed and readied for release just days before the digital release. Regardless of the exact date of release, it looks like U2 are pushing to get new music out to us soon, and may even be debuting a new song in concert.
