GRAMMY® Award-winning English rock titans MUSE are announcing an extensive North American amphitheater tour. Muse - The Wow! Signal Tour is set to launch in July and will include a stop in Cincinnati, OH at Riverbend Music Cener on Friday, July 11.
MUSE announced The Wow! Signal last week and shared the massive opening salvo of a lead single, “Be With You,” alongside a scene-setting official music video directed by Nico Paolillo (Deafheaven, BAD OMENS) and starring Ella Balinska (Resident Evil, The Occupant). Listen HERE and watch HERE. The announcement was broadcast from space and was widely covered, with buzz from the likes of Pitchfork, NME, Consequence of Sound, Kerrang, and Billboard. “Be With You” was the #1 Most Added at Alternative Radio, debuting at #29 and already trending Top 20, and has earned 3 million global streams in the first week.
The cinematic “Be With You” video and its various teasers also hinted at the new album’s themes. The Wow! Signal takes its name from one of the most compelling interstellar mysteries of the last century: a powerful 72-second radio burst detected in 1977 originating from the constellation Sagittarius with a bandwidth and intensity that suggested a possible extraterrestrial source. The astronomer who discovered the anomaly famously circled the now-iconic sequence “6EQUJ5” and wrote “WOW!” on the printout beside it — giving the signal its name and cementing its place in scientific and pop-culture lore.
Ahead of “Be With You,” MUSE released the With You docuseries on YouTube collecting intimate stories from their global fanbase filmed during the band’s blockbuster Will of the People Tour. Bassist Chris Wolstenholme’s mum also makes a charming appearance amid the moving vignettes. Watch HERE. In 2025, Muse returned to the road for a summer festival run, which included stepping in for Kings of Leon at Madrid’s Mad Cool — a show NME described as “an era-spanning, revolutionary space-tacular.”
While there’s still little to go on beyond The Wow! Signal’s title, the track list, and lead single, the commonalities therein speak to the forces powering MUSE’s new era: a mix of cosmic mystery, existential hope, and the exhilarating possibility of contact with something far greater than ourselves.
MUSE are Matt Bellamy, Dominic Howard, and Chris Wolstenholme. Their previous album, Will of the People, debuted at #1 in multiple territories globally and marked the band’s seventh consecutive album to debut in the UK top spot. Their 2015 album, Drones, went on to win a GRAMMY Award for Best Rock Album, the band’s second. Since forming in 1994, MUSE have released nine studio albums, selling over 30 million units worldwide. Widely recognized as one of the best live bands in the world, MUSE have won numerous music awards including two GRAMMY Awards, an American Music Award, five MTV Europe Music Awards, two Brit Awards, eleven NME Awards, and seven Q Awards, amongst others.
