She’s not your regular type of pop girl. Little Mix<\/a>‘s Leigh-Anne<\/a> is ready to reintroduce herself with debut solo album My Ego Told Me To<\/a>. It marks Leigh’s first full-length release as an independent artist, as she explains “everything that has been in my heart, everything I\u2019ve wanted to do, I\u2019m doing now. It feels like freedom. It feels right.”<\/p>\n Thought she was So Yesterday<\/a>? Wrong! Hilary Duff<\/a>‘s back and bigger than ever. Following the announcement of her global Hilary Duff:\u00a0the lucky me tour<\/a>, which hits UK arenas this September, she unleashes her sixth studio album luck… or something<\/a>. Featuring the singles Mature<\/a> and Roommates<\/a>, look out for limited edition physical variants of the record including re-recorded ‘mine’ versions of some of Hilary’s biggest hits: from Wake Up<\/a> to With Love<\/a>.<\/p>\n Hilary’s re-imagined classics will also be released on an exclusive vinyl release – (mine) – for Record Store Day 2026<\/a>, available from participating independent record shops on Saturday April 18.<\/p>\n Following his recent GRAMMYS Best Rock Performance success, YUNGBLUD<\/a> expands his chart-topping IDOLS<\/a> era as IDOLS II<\/a>, featuring six brand-new tracks including focus single Suburban Requiem.<\/p>\n Fresh off the back of their 2025 chart-topper Rushmere<\/a>, Mumford & Sons<\/a> deliver their sixth studio project Prizefighter<\/a>, featuring collaborations with Gracie Abrams<\/a>, Hozier<\/a>, Gigi Perez<\/a> and Chris Stapleton<\/a>. With a hat-trick of Number 1 LPs under their belts already, can Marcus Mumford<\/a>, Ted Dwane and Ben Lovett bank a fourth next week?<\/p>\n New York multihyphenate Moby<\/a> returns with his 23rd, predominantly-instrumental studio collection Future Quiet, featuring collaborations with Jacob Lusk, serpentwithfeet, India Carney and Elise Serenelle. Could the record earn him a 13th UK Top 40 album?<\/p>\n Ahead of its 40th anniversary next year, George Michael<\/a>‘s chart-topping 1987 debut Faith<\/a> is reissued on vinyl for the first time in over 10 years, pressed across 1LP picture disc, 2LP red and marble vinyl and 1 and 2LP black vinyl, plus 10-track CD.<\/p>\n Social Disguises serves as The Enemy<\/a>‘s first full-length release in over a decade, since 2015’s Number 21-peaking It’s Automatic<\/a>. Meanwhile, we find more big new releases from New Found Glory<\/a> (Listen Up!), Peaches<\/a> (No Lube So Rude) and Baby Keem<\/a> (Ca$ino).<\/p>\n Now, let’s turn our attention to singles.<\/p>\n Famed for her snappy song titles, Lana Del Rey<\/a> is back with White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter, her first release since Bluebird<\/a> in May of last year. Is a 15th UK Top 40 single on the horizon?<\/p>\n With the release of Netflix’s Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man movie just around the corner (March 6), Fontaines D.C.<\/a>‘s Grian Chatten<\/a> joins forces with\u00a0Antony Genn and Martin Slattery on Puppet, lifted from its soundtrack (also due March 6).<\/p>\n On the soundtrack, Grian says: “As I was working with Ant and Martin on writing these tracks, I had the joy of watching and rewatching the scenes, and different things would reveal themselves to me each time. It\u2019s an interesting thing to not spoil or over narrate a scene and to allow the pictures to speak for themselves. It was a bit of a balancing act.”<\/p>\n Calum Scott<\/a> recruits Manchester rapper Aitch<\/a> on a brand-new version of Unsteady, and the story behind the team-up’s pretty adorable. “Our collaboration came about so organically,” explains Calum. “I saw a post of Aitch\u2019s sister, Gracie, singing You Are the Reason and sent a thank you video to Aitch to pass on, and she was buzzing with it! Aitch and I started chatting and we said we should collab so we got in a studio.”<\/p>\n “Loved working with Calum, he\u2019s a top guy,” adds Aitch.<\/p>\n New Zealand-born, LA-based artist Leroy Clampitt, who’s already a BRIT and three-time GRAMMY-nominated producer and songwriter, drops his debut solo single I’m Going To Die. On the track, released via his own newly-formed record label Sorry Susan Records, Leroy says: “I was quietly collecting songs for a couple of years. All of these songs came to me out of the blue while I was in the shower, cooking, driving around. I just remember singing ‘I\u2019m Going To Die,’ then having a space, and then ‘Someday\u2019. I thought, ‘ahh that\u2019s such an interesting thing because you start with this very crazy statement, then you\u2019re actually just saying something very normal.'”<\/p>\n Twenty One Pilots<\/a> drop Drag Path, SZA<\/a>\u00a0is here to Save The Day with the soundtrack to upcoming Pixar flick Hoppers and Jorja Smith<\/a>\u00a0releases brand-new cut Don’t Leave.<\/p>\n Ahead of the release of her sixth studio album Superbloom, due April 10, Jessie Ware<\/a> offers to take you on a Ride, as K-pop queens Hearts2Hearts get RUDE! with their latest playful pop banger.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, pro rugby player-turned-musician Jack Cullen delivers Jessica, Steve Aoki<\/a> gets his Freak On, country star Luke Bryan<\/a> returns with Word on the Street and Chloe Qisha<\/a> shares YDH.<\/p>\n Other big new releases come courtesy of Absolutely<\/a> (Paracosm), Mary Middlefield (Milk),\u00a0AJ Mitchell<\/a> (Try Again), Alfie Boe<\/a> (Meanwhile Gardens), ZENA ft.
