Loyle Carner has announced brand new album hopefully !,which is set for release on Island EMI on June 20th. Loyle has additionally detailed plans for a huge global tour to follow his Glastonbury headline set (The Other Stage, June 27th), including Dublin’s 3Arena and a four night residency at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in November. Pre-order hopefully ! for live access now: album pre-sale opens on April 30th at 9AM local time, MCD, Live Nation and SJM pre-sale on May 1st (9AM), Spotify pre-sale beginning on May 1st (12PM), and tickets available for general sale on May 2nd (9AM).
hopefully ! was introduced recently alongside two surprise new songs, ‘all i need / in my mind’, marking the groundbreaking British artist as you’ve never seen or heard him before. A life-affirming exploration of fatherhood, childhood and alternative music, the album is buoyed by a positivity and lightness of touch achieved in large part by stepping out of your comfort zone. In a series of firsts – singing, producing, accidentally forming the band of his dreams – Loyle Carner cultivates healthier boundaries, whilst also allowing his audience in (the album’s moving artwork features his muse of a son, who can also be heard throughout the record).
