The Monkees have announced a new album, Good Times, for June 10, 2016 release. Despite the death of Davy Jones in 2012, the band continues to create music and release music.

According to the original Amazon listing, the album will include songwriting contributions from bands including Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo, Death Cab For Cutie’s Ben Gibbard, XTC’s Andy Partridge, and Rogue Wave’s Zach Rogue. Also, former Fountains Of Wayne frontman Adam Schlesinger will produce the album and contribute some songwriting, and band members Peter Tork and Michael Nesmith will contribute songs.

Sources also say, the band will finish some previous unfinished recordings. Some of these recordings include: an old Davy Jones vocal for “Love To Love,” written by Neil Diamond, and an old demo from Harry Nilsson, for the song “Good Times.” 

There has been social media evidence from the band members.
