The 1975 wrapped up their 2024 UK tour in Birmingham last night with a bit of news that had the crowd buzzing: they’re already knee-deep in creating their next album. On the last night of their ‘Still… At Their Very Best’ tour, frontman Matty Healy shared a snippet of a new song, hinting at the band’s ongoing projects and creative ventures.

Despite previous talks of taking a break from touring, Healy reassured fans that the band was far from taking a long hiatus. Instead, they’re back in the studio, crafting what promises to be another record full of the sound and fury fans have come to love. Healy played a bit of a new track right from his phone, saying, “We’re working on a new record now… we kind of are The 1975.”

This tour has been a mix of heartfelt moments and surprise collaborations, including performances with Healy’s dad, actor Tim Healy, and unexpected shout-outs. With their last studio album, Being Funny In A Foreign Language, receiving accolades for its blend of pop sensibility and introspective lyrics, the anticipation for what’s next from The 1975 is already mounting.
