The sound and context of Can We Please Have Fun
The current tour is built around Kings of Leon’s ninth studio album, Can We Please Have Fun, released on May 10, 2024 through Capitol Records and associated labels. The record marked a label shift away from RCA and reached number 4 on Germany’s Official Top 100 albums, entering the charts there on May 17, 2024 and staying for two weeks.
Internationally, the album performed strongly across Europe and beyond, peaking at number 2 in the UK, number 2 in Ireland, number 3 in New Zealand and number 6 in Switzerland, while landing at number 35 on the Billboard 200 in the United States. This puts its German peak equal to the band’s previous album When You See Yourself, which also reached number 4, but behind earlier releases like Come Around Sundown, which hit number 1 in Germany.German chart entry for Can We Please Have Fun
