First single released earlier this year, they’re in the studio working on a new album and have several live dates announced for the rest of 2026. I imagine we’ll probably hear a second single when their live shows kick off.

I’m kind of surprised that they’ve left it so long since Falling Into You. Give us more!

Did “Falling Into You” do as well as the old place made it seem?
It wasn’t a chart success or a ‘hit’ in the way we judge things now; but it definitely got their name out there again and had some really solid support from radio.
I honestly don’t think they decided to record more until they saw how good the reception was which probably explains why things have been a bit quiet while they’re in the studio.

Let’s hope they play some new music at Mighty Hoopla and release a single right after that.

I enjoyed the last single but would be happy for it to be a stand alone single, and for their new music to have more of an “edge”.

Oh, an EP. (Insert sad face emoji)

I wished for a full album but as long as we get 6-7 maybe 8 superb new songs, considering this is unexpected to have anything new at all, September won’t come soon enough

I thought it was a bit random but then I remembered they were part of this friendship group, seemingly led by Kate Thornton. There used to be loads of videos of them like this on YouTube but they’ve disappeared.
Not even a live premiere of Ready To Begin? Announcing a new single and then not playing it live… pretty weird.
Watching everyone’s footage they both looked and sounded fantastic. Heidi was very unexpected but it’s ace to see two girlbands coming together like that and performing each others music.
Really excited for Ready To Begin now!
I kind of like the way they haven’t performed it yet so we get a totally brand new song on Friday. As for the whole EP situation, an album would have been the best outcome but if it’s what they’re comfortable with, I’m just grateful we’re getting something new from them in 2026!
It also takes the pressure off the Charts if they release an EP instead of an album right? I’m sure we’ll get some physical copies still.

I’m sad it’s just an EP coming but after 23 years, I’m just excited they’re releasing a body of work again!

Exciting!
I do not particularly go out of my way to play Falling Into You but I’m always happy when it comes on shuffle in my 2026 playlist.
