“With a Little Help from My Friends”: A Song for Healing
On **March 28, 2025**, Ringo released a powerful new version of “With a Little Help from My Friends,” recorded live at the **Ryman Auditorium** in Nashville. The performance featured a star-studded lineup including:

“Look Up”: Ringo’s Country Reinvention
Earlier this year, Ringo surprised fans with **“Look Up,”** his first country album in over 50 years. Produced and co-written by **T Bone Burnett**, the album debuted at **#1 in the UK** and cracked the **Top 10 in the U.S.**, marking a major milestone in his solo career.
The album’s success was celebrated with two sold-out shows at the Ryman, further cementing Ringo’s place in the country music scene. He even made his **Grand Ole Opry debut** on February 21, 2025—an emotional moment for the Liverpool-born drummer who once dreamed of Nashville.
Peace, Love, and Legacy
Ringo’s commitment to peace and love isn’t just a slogan—it’s a mission. Since 2008, he’s used his birthday, July 7, to promote global peace, with events spanning the globe and even reaching space (thanks to NASA). His **“Peace Sculpture”** stands permanently in Beverly Hills Park, a testament to his enduring message.
Beyond music, Ringo is also a **visual artist**, **author**, and **philanthropist**. He’s published eight books, modeled for fashion campaigns, and even photographed the Foo Fighters. In 2018, he was **knighted**, and in 2022, he received an **honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music**.
Why This Tour Matters
