Tom Smith of The Editors releases new solo single, "Leave"

02 October 2025, 11:31 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Editors front-person, Tom Smith, has shared "Leave" as the latest single taken from his forthcoming debut solo album, There Is Nothing In The Dark Which Isn’t There In The Light.

"We went on a bit of a journey with that one. It’s a bit of a breakup song in some ways. There’s a conflict in this song, but there’s also a resolution. There’s an acceptance that things are going to turn around again. It’s probably the closest this record has to a pop song in some ways – if you can say that," Tom Smith explains.

"Leave" follows previous singles, "Lights Of New York City" and "Life Is For Living". The track is accompanied by a video shot by James Lockey and filmed in the wooded grounds of south Yorkshire stately home Wentworth Woodhouse.

There Is Nothing In The Dark Which Isn’t There In The Light, will be released on 5 December via Play It Again Sam, and is available to pre-order now.
