Bryan Adams Announces New Album, ‘So Happy It Hurts’

Grammy Award-winning Canadian musician, Bryan Adams, announced Monday (October 11) that he will be releasing his newest album, So Happy It Hurts, on March 11, 2022.

“The pandemic and lockdown really brought home the truth that spontaneity can be taken away,” said Adams in a press release. “Suddenly all touring stopped, no one could jump in the car and go. The title song ‘So Happy It Hurts’ is about freedom, autonomy, spontaneity, and the thrill of the open road. The album of the same name touches on many of the ephemeral things in life that are really the secret to happiness, most importantly, human connection.”

Fans can pre-order the new 12-song record here.

Adams also released a new video for the title track of his soon-to-be 15th release. Watch the new high-energy offering below.

Also available for purchase and pre-order is an exclusive color vinyl and a limited edition box set that includes the deluxe CD, vinyl, hardbound book, and signed photo.

The 61-year-old Kingston, Ontario-born Adams has some tour dates slated for November, with a bunch more set for February and beyond 2022. See the full list of dates below.
