Former HANOI ROCKS frontman Michael Monroe is set to release his new studio album, “Outerstellar”, on February 20, 2026, through Silver Lining Music.
The first video from “Outerstellar”, for the track “Rockin’ Horse”, directed by Leigh Brooks, is out now and available to watch below.
“‘Rockin’ Horse’ is a cool, rockin’ song that we made a great fun video for with the fantastic director Leigh Brooks,” says Monroe. “We got into different characters on the so-called ‘Waking Up With Michael Monroe’ TV morning show with me as the host. And it’s the first time ever you can see me without makeup (!). Great fun and good times. Hope you enjoy it!”.
