His self-produced 25th album was recorded at his own Belmont Mall Studio. “The Eyes of Portland” focuses on social issues Mellencamp continues to passionately advocate for.
Mellencamp is currently in the midst of his Live and In Person 2023 North American tour, with dates running through June 27 including stops in New York City, Nashville, Philadelphia, Boston and more. A complete list of remaining dates is below and tickets where available for purchase HERE.
He’s currently performing songs from the new album during his live set. Critically acclaimed studio album Strictly A One-Eyed Jack was released early last year. Mellencamp also recently released a deluxe edition reissue of his seminal album, Scarecrow, which features a collection of bonus tracks, rarities and more never previously shared before. Listen HERE.
Mellencamp is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a Grammy winner, a recipient of the John Steinbeck Award, ASCAP Foundation’s Champion Award, The Woody Guthrie Award and Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award and more recently, the Founders Award, the top honor assigned by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers and a member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Mellencamp has continued to focus on another facet of his artistic expression: painting. Last year, he released a self-curated book of his work, John Mellencamp: Paintings and Assemblages, which is out now on Rizzoli New York.
