Upcoming Single and Album Details
Yungblud, the vibrant musician from Doncaster, is set to release a new nine-minute single titled ‘Hello Heaven, Hello’ on March 14. This single marks the beginning of a new artistic era for him.
In his recent updates, Yungblud expressed immense pride in his upcoming album, stating, “I have never felt more clear or been more proud to stand by anything I have ever made.” He emphasized that the project has taken four years to develop and is an adventure designed for listeners to immerse themselves completely.
Thematic Inspiration and Influences
In an exclusive interview with NME, Yungblud shared insights into his creative journey, mentioning that the album revolves around themes of self-love and self-reclamation.

Drawing on significant Britpop influences such as Oasis, The Verve, and Primal Scream, Yungblud seeks to tap into a collective emotional experience. He expressed a desire for the album to foster community and connection with its mantra: “Come together, look each other in the eye, be human.”
A Conceptual Undertone

He explained that the creative process took place in a studio in Leeds, where the focus was on genuine expression rather than commercial trends, allowing the music to exist authentically outside the pressures of today’s music industry.

Furthering his artistic endeavors, Yungblud announced the return of his festival, Bludfest, slated for this summer. The festival will showcase a lineup featuring popular artists such as Chase Atlantic, Denzel Curry, and Blackbear, promising an exciting event for fans.
