iHeartMedia has announced it will host a special broadcast, “iHeartRadio Album Preview Featuring Bon Jovi’s Forever (Legendary Edition),” on October 23. The event is set to air at 7 p.m. local time across iHeartRadio Hot AC, Classic Hits, Variety, 80s and Classic Rock stations, as well as on the Today’s Mix digital station on the iHeartRadio app at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.
The preview will feature Jon Bon Jovi sharing previously unreleased songs and stories from the band’s upcoming album, FOREVER (LEGENDARY EDITION), ahead of its official release on October 24. The event was recorded at the iHeartRadio Los Angeles Theater and is hosted by iHeartRadio personality Valentine.
Bon Jovi’s new album, released via Island Records, includes 14 tracks with collaborations from artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Carin Leon, Joe Elliott, Robbie Williams, Avril Lavigne, Marcus King, and others.
Jon Bon Jovi explained the album’s collaborative approach: “I thought in this day and age of people doing these features, if I could call a bunch of our friends and under the guise of the title of The Beatles song ‘With A Little Help From My Friends’ and ask folks to sing on these songs- we would write something new to accompany it, you know, just show that my voice is healed and then get friends to come and reintroduce a great album, and that was the plan. And so we called old friends, new friends, country, rock, international, men, women. So it’s a diverse record, you know, a lot of different kinds of talent.”
The broadcast provides fans an exclusive opportunity to hear new music before the album becomes available.
