In April the BRITs 2022 Rising Star winner released new single ‘Sleep Tight’, written with longtime collaborator Rob Milton and 1975’s Matty Healy, which she performed for the first time at Coachella. It followed January single ‘London Is Lonely’.

Last year Humberstone spoke to Rolling Stone UK about the “daunting” experience of working on her debut album. “The idea of an album is still a bit terrifying to me just because it’s so final,” she said. “But it’s exciting now, too. Hopefully in the next few months people will hear more about the new music. I’m trying not to overthink it,” she continued.

“I’m trying to make the music that I love and hopefully people will connect with that if I’m honest and vulnerable. I put all of myself into my work and I hope people can connect to that.”
