Wolf Alice Announces New Single
The Wolf Alice officially announced her return with the new single “Bloom Baby Bloom” – listen to the preliminary fragment below.
Teasing Their Next Era
The London group began to tease its next era last month when they updated their official logo on social media and shared snippets and instrumentals from what appeared to be the upcoming track.
Ellie Rousell and the band later shared a playlist of influences for their new material and released several new press photographs online.
Now, Wolf Alice has confirmed that their single “Bloom Baby Bloom” will debut at 18:30 BST on Thursday the 15th. They also revealed the official cover art of the song, featuring the group in a fresh look, alongside a longer preview fragment.
Wolf Alice also promised a “small treat” for fans who pre-save the track, which Reddit users have confirmed includes lines for “Bloom Baby Bloom” (see below).

The upcoming single features a previously revealed line “Each flower should focus with dirt“. Other lyrics include: “Do I have to force you, sit in your arms/ damn, baby, baby/ you want me to show you who I am/ see this fire in my eyes, a boy/ This is your flash in a pan“.
“Bloom Baby Bloom” marks Wolf Alice’s return with brand-new material following their third studio album, “Blue Weekend,” released in 2021. This album topped the UK charts and was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.
Speculation about new music from Wolf Alice began when they were confirmed to be part of the lineup for Glastonbury 2025 in March. Since then, they have also been announced for Big Weekend Radio 1 in Liverpool this month.
Wolf Alice has not performed a full live show since the end of 2022.

At the beginning of 2024, the group signed with Major Label Columbia Records following the conclusion of their deal with independent label Dirty Hit.
Wolf Alice received multiple NME nominations in 2022, including Best Album by a British Artist and Best Album in the World for “Blue Weekend.” This year, they won for Best Festival Headliner.
NME awarded “Blue Weekend” a stellar five-star review, describing it as a “masterpiece, full of confidence and magic.” The album also ranked third on NME‘s 50 Best Albums of 2021 list.
