Alice Costello shares details of debut album, Move On With The Year

London singer-songwriter Alice Costelloe has announced her debut album, Move On With The Year, and celebrates with the release of its title track.

"Like many of the tracks on this record I wrote them through happy accidents while learning to play various instruments. This one I wrote practicing the G major scale on the piano and that’s basically what the bridge of the song is. So much of this record is about childhood, and growing up and it felt appropriate having something as naive as this simple scale for the bridge," Costelloe explains.

"I was feeling really bored by the guitar when I started writing this record and wanted to find new ways to write melodies. So I bought myself a flute a few months before recording, and figured it wouldn’t be too hard to teach myself and might inspire something new. With the flute, I felt like I had access to a whole new melodic world that sounded sad and pretty, and scrappy (because I was still learning). It felt right for the record that was emerging and felt way more natural to me than some slick lead guitar part."

Tracklist:

  1. Anywhere Else
  2. How Can I
  3. Move On With the Year
  4. Every Time
  5. Too Late Now
  6. Damned If You Do
  7. Of Course I Know
  8. Feet On The Sand
  9. If I Could Reach You
  10. Is There Something (Goodbye)

Move On With The Year, will be released on 6 February 2026 via Moshi Moshi Records.
