Portugal. The Man has released a new song called “Phoenix” in collaboration with hitmaking DJ Marshmello.

Gourley adds, “The song’s about that cycle—breaking down and coming back stronger—and I’m grateful for the trust and energy he brought into it.”

Marshmello has previously collaborated with alternative artists including Bastille and CHVRCHES.

Portugal. The Man’s most recent album is 2025’s SHISH, which includes the single “Tanana.”

B5 is outside and active, hence the release of their new single, “ETA.”

The song is about the thrill and longing of waiting for that special person, a concept Dustin tells ABC Audio they came up while working in the studio.

“[We were] just bouncing ideas around and just stumbled upon the concept of ‘ETA,'” he explains. “And we ended up just coming up with a cool song about it.

Kelly adds, “We just wanted to let people know that we’re outside, we never stop … so show up to where we at, what’s your ETA?

While song releases are sometimes are a preview of an upcoming body of work, Dustin says this is a “calling card” indicating several projects to come.

“There’s a lot of things that B5 has in store. This is just the starting conversation piece. That’s what ‘ETA’ is about,” Patrick adds. “It’s leading up to more singles, more music videos, concerts, tours, even some TV, film things that’s happening as well. This is the jump off right now.”

“If y’all on a ride with us,” Dustin chimes in. “Y’all let us know what y’all ETA is.”

B5, which also includes members Bryan and Carnell, is currently on the road as part of the Boys 4 Life tour, which stops at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center Saturday. With 20 years in the game, Dustin says “it feels great … for us to be having interviews, still talking about music with our group. The fact we can stand the test of time says a lot and we’re just honestly just really thankful for it all.”

“Obviously, we have the best fans in the world,” Patrick says. “It’s an honor and it feels good to be here to still do what we’re all extremely passionate about and … love.” He continues, “We can’t wait to do 20 more if possible.”

(WASHINGTON) — Hackers breached FBI Director Kash Patel’s personal email, according to sources familiar with the situation. 

The majority of the emails were from prior to 2019, according to sources, and appear to be from before his tenure at the FBI. There were a few emails from 2022, sources told ABC News. 

“The FBI is aware of malicious actors targeting Director Patel’s personal email information, and we have taken all necessary steps to mitigate potential risks associated with this activity. The information in question is historical in nature and involves no government information,” the FBI said in a statement Friday.

It is unclear which country hacked the director’s old emails, however, Iranian-linked hackers online have claimed credit for the hack. 

“The Department of State’s Rewards for Justice program offers up to a $10 million reward for information leading to the identification of the Handala Hack Team out of Iran — a group that has frequently targeted U.S. government officials,” the FBI said.

Reuters was the first to report the breach.
