Mumford & Sons return as musical guest and Connor Storie, one of the breakout stars of Heated Rivalry, makes his debut as host on the next episode of Saturday Night Live.

SNL announced its Feb. 28 lineup Saturday night (Jan. 31). It’ll be the first new episode to air on NBC and Peacock following a three-weekend break.

The ep will arrive a week after Mumford & Sons drop their sixth studio album, Prizefighter, slated for a Feb. 20 release via Island Records. The performance will mark their fourth visit to SNL as a band — having previously served as musical guest during episodes in 2012, 2015 and 2018.

Marcus Mumford also stopped by Studio 8H for a cameo in wife Carey Mulligan’s monologue in 2021.

Storie leads Heated Rivalry with co-star Hudson Williams as rival hockey players Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander, who find themselves involved in a secret romance.

A pair of songs from the series’ soundtrack (“It’s You” and “Rivalry,” performed, written and produced by Peter Peter) recently debuted on Billboard’s all-genre Digital Song Sales and Dance Digital Song Sales charts.

SNL recently swapped hockey for quidditch in a late-night sketch spoofing Heated Rivalry, with Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard starring as Harry Potter opposite SNL cast member Ben Marshall’s Ron Weasley. The bit, titled “Heated Wizardry,” featured the Gryffindor teammates entangled in a relationship that had Kenan Thompson’s Mad-Eye Moody peeping.

This weekend’s episode (Jan. 31) had Cardi B performing Am I the Drama? tracks “Bodega Baddie” and “ErrTime” and Alexander Skarsgård hosting. Cardi also let her comedic side out in the night’s “Immigrant Dad Talk Show” sketch with Marcello Hernández.

Tame Impala‘s electronic anthem “End of Summer” won the Grammy for best dance/dlectronic recording at the 2026 Grammy Awards.

The award was presented by Darren Criss during the Grammy Premiere Ceremony in Los Angeles on Sunday (Feb. 1), where the Australian artist beat out fellow nominees Disclosure & Anderson .Paak ‘s “No Cap,” Fred again.., Skepta and PlaqueBoyMax’s “Victory Lap,” Kaytranada’s “Space Invader” and Skrillex’s “Voltage.”

Tame Impala won his first-ever Grammy Award last year for his work on Justice’s Neverender,” which also won for best dance/electronic recording. This 2026 win is Tame Impala’s first ever Grammy win as a solo artist. The artist has previously earned three nominations, all for best alternative music album. Best dance/electronic recording was the only category he was nominated in in 2026.

“End of Summer” comes from the October album Deadbeat, the first Tame Impala album in the artist’s history, which includes four other studio albums dating back to 2010’s Innerspeaker, to be largely electronic. Parker has said that that album was inspired by his experiences in the Australian “bush doof” electronic scene, with “End of Summer” functioning as the LP’s stirring seven-plus minute, multi-movement closer. Tame Impala’s rollout for the album included an event with the famed electronic livestream producer Cercle, which hosted a DJ event with Tame Impala filmed in Mexico City.

“End of Summer” spent five weeks on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, with Deadbeat itself spending three weeks at No. 1 on Top Dance Albums. Album singles “Dracula,” My Old Ways” and “Dracula” also all charted on the Hot 100.
