In late July 2026, Stevie Wonder celebrated his 75th birthday with the release of Volume 2 of the three‑volume *Stevie Wonder Songbook* series, a collection of songs he wrote for other artists, a few unreleased recordings and genre‑spanning covers.

Two days later, Wonder revealed that his first album of original material in 22 years – his 24th studio effort, *Through the Eyes of Wonder* – will arrive in 2027. The announcement came during a concert on his current tour, and a separate press release noted the news at a tour stop in Italy. The record will feature four previously unheard tracks recovered from the prolific 1976 “Songs in the Key of Life” sessions, and Wonder reiterated his commitment to keep creating as long as he can breathe and think creatively.

Promoters have hinted that Wonder may appear at Italy’s Umbria Jazz Festival in support of the album, though no official confirmation has been made. Together, the archival Songbook release and the forthcoming album underscore a renewed focus on both preserving his legacy and delivering fresh songwriting well into his later years.
