Loyle Carner to drop new album ahead of Glastonbury headline slot
Loyle Carner is set to release the new album, 'hopefully !' on June 20.
Loyle Carner is releasing the album 'hopefully !' ahead of his headline set on Glastonbury's The Other Stage.
The British hip-hop star is due to top the bill at Worthy Farm on June 27, and fans will have some new music seven days earlier, with the follow-up to 2022's 'Hugo' on June 20.
What's more, Carner has announced some new tour dates, including a four night residency at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in November.
Album pre-sale opens on April 30 at 9am local time, with a Live Nation and SJM pre-sale on May 1 (9am). Further to to this a Spotify pre-sale begins on May 1st (12pm), with tickets available for general sale on May 2nd (9am).
Carner recently previewed the album with the pair of singles ‘all i need' and 'in my mind’.
It's inspired by becoming a father in 2020 to his little boy.
A press release notes of the LP: "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)."
