Micky Dolenz, the sole surviving member of The Monkees, has released a new six-track EP titled 'Timeless' on September 4th. This release marks the 60th anniversary of The Monkees' television show and debut album.

'Timeless' features original songs solicited from a diverse group of musicians and songwriters. Among them are Andy Partridge of XTC, Paul Westerberg of The Replacements, and Vicki Peterson of The Bangles. Notably, the EP includes 'Something Happened,' a song cowritten by the late Adam Schlesinger, who was instrumental in The Monkees' recent albums.
Dolenz is currently commemorating six decades of The Monkees with his '60 Years of the Monkees' tour. The tour commenced with dates in Phoenix on September 8-9 and is slated to continue with performances scheduled through May 2027. A significant date on the tour is September 12th in Los Angeles, marking the exact 60th anniversary of the first Monkees episode airing on NBC.
