Lily Allen is releasing music again

We so ready for a new Lily era 🎀

After seven years away from the spotlight, Lily Allen is back releasing music and she’s feeling all the feels. 

Her brand-new album West End Girl drops Friday October 24 marking her most “vulnerable” release yet.

The Smile singer says she’s “nervous” about sharing this side of herself, revealing she wrote the deeply personal tracks in just 10 days after moving to a new city and processing the breakdown of her marriage to Stranger Things star David Harbour.

“This record is vulnerable in a way my music hasn’t been before,” Lily shared. “It’s about where I am now a mix of fact and fiction, about love, heartbreak, and the messy in-between.”

It’s her first album since No Shame (2018)

Meanwhile, Lewis Capaldi is coming back, and says he’s switching things up completely. Saying goodbye to sad-boy ballads, hello happy tunes! 

Speaking on BBC Radio 2, the Someone You Loved singer teased that his next album will be all about the good vibes. “News flash next album, it’s happy. It’s happy, happy stuff,” he promised.

Lewis has been on a high since his Glastonbury comeback, with a massive 2026 tour locked in, including huge festival dates across the UK and Ireland.
