I Must Be Dreaming by Alabama Shakes
I Must Be Dreaming is an album by Alabama Shakes, released in 2026. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 14 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Another Life”, on 14 lists with a best position of #3.
I Must Be Dreaming, the third Alabama Shakes album, arrived on Island Records on August 28, 2026, more than eleven years after Sound & Color, and it's the first with the band as a trio: Brittany Howard on lead vocals and guitar, Heath Fogg on guitar and Zac Cockrell on bass. After a hiatus that began in 2018 and Howard's solo years, the reunion started with a surprise show in Tuscaloosa at the end of 2024 and a tour in 2025.
The band co-produced with Shawn Everett, recording at Sound Emporium and Blackbird Studio in Nashville, and it sounds like old friends finding their feet together again: raw, soulful Southern rock with Howard's voice as the storm at the center. "Another Life", "American Dream" and "I Feel Hope Coming" went out ahead of it.
