Loyle Carner

Loyle Carner comes to Utilita Arena Cardiff on 7 November 2025.

Loyle Carner has today announced brand new album hopefully !, which is set for release on Island EMI on June 20th. Loyle has additionally detailed plans for a huge UK tour to follow his Glastonbury headline set (The Other Stage, June 27th), including a four night residency at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in November. 

hopefully ! was introduced recently alongside two surprise new songs, ‘all i need / in my mind’, marking the groundbreaking British artist as you’ve never seen or heard him before. A life-affirming exploration of fatherhood, childhood and alternative music, the album is buoyed by a positivity and lightness of touch achieved in large part by stepping out of your comfort zone. In a series of firsts - singing, producing, accidentally forming the band of his dreams - Loyle Carner cultivates healthier boundaries, whilst also allowing his audience in (the album’s moving artwork features his muse of a son, who can also be heard throughout the record).
