Loyle Carner details forthcoming album, hopefully !
Loyle Carner has announced a brand new album, hopefully !, as well as a tour including a four night residency at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in November.
hopefully ! was introduced recently alongside two surprise new songs, "all i need / in my mind". The album is a life-affirming exploration of fatherhood, childhood and alternative music; 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.
hopefully !, is set for release on 20 June via Island EMI, and is available to pre-order now. Pre-sale access can be gained by pre-ordering the album. General sale begins on 2 May at 9am.
