According to the Rolling Stones' guitarist and songwriter Keith Richards, "new music is on the horizon” from the veteran rock outfit.

In his latest in-the-studio update, the English musician hinted that new Stones material could be on the way soon after the band released 2020's standalone single 'Living In A Ghost Town'.

Frontman Mick Jagger said back in September that the band wanted to record more but would only do so “in safe circumstances”, with Richards revealing that he is back working in the studio.

Jagger confirmed that he was recording several other tracks from the same sessions that yielded 'Ghost Town' before the pandemic hit.

“About last night!” he captioned his in-the-studio tweet. “New music on the horizon!”

In other Rolling Stones news, the band are set to launch their own chocolate bar later this month.

The band's overall merchandising strategy has seen them opening their very first flagship merchandise store in central London last year.

Ronnie Wood recently made available lithographic prints of the hand-drawn setlists he created for all of the concerts the band played during its 2019 No Filter Tour of the US and Canada.
