The Killers frontman has revealed he flew over the handlebars of his bike and tore his right shoulder, throwing the ‘Bones’ hitmakers’ May shows in jeopardy. <\/p>\n

The Las Vegas rockers are due to kick off their UK run on May 25 at Doncaster’s Keepmoat Stadium, but he admitted it’s “not looking great”.<\/p>\n

Brandon told fans on Instagram \u201cI went over the handlebars. I have a torn right shoulder so I am going under the knife in a couple of weeks to get that taken care off. Maybe one day I will play golf again. I will be in a sling for six weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope May happens. It\u2019s not looking great.”<\/p>\n

However, the 39-year-old singer teased fans can expect plenty of new music, including a seven-minute-long number about a gambling addict, and vowed to be back on stage “as soon as we can”.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cI have a seven-minute song about a slot technician with a gambling problem. It\u2019s good. One day you will hear it.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaking music has become a part of our life now as this is what we get to do. You look at people who have lasted. We are on our seventh record.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be back live as soon as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last month, Brandon and co released a new track called ‘C\u2019est La Vie\u2019, from the deluxe edition of their 2020 album ‘Imploding The Mirage\u2019.<\/p>\n

The extended album also includes acoustic live cuts of the tracks \u2018Blowback\u2019 and \u2018Caution\u2019.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, the group also teased fans about their new album and reunited in the studio with guitarist Dave Keuning.<\/p>\n

The musician took some time away form the group to work on his own music, releasing his debut solo album \u2018Prismism\u2018 in 2019, but he\u2019s seemingly back in the band after not contributing to \u2018Imploding The Mirage\u2019. <\/p>\n

During an Instagram Live, Dave was seen in the recording booth with the band as they teased previews of their seventh record.<\/p>\n

Brandon had previously promised fans won’t have long to wait to hear new music after a “fruitful” creative period amid the COVID-19 lockdown.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cEvery time someone makes a record they say that they have 50 songs and they\u2019re going to release another record. We really are.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to release another one in about 10 months. We\u2019ve already gone back into the studio with [Jonathon, producer] Rado and Shawn [Everett, producer]. We did a week in Northern California.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had a lot of time on my hands. Before I\u2019d normally be gearing up to tour, all of that time has gone back into writing more songs. It\u2019s been pretty fruitful.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
