Widowspeak will return with a new album, ‘Expect The Best’, on 25 Aug. The follow up to 2015’s ‘All Yours’, news of the release is accompanied by first single ‘Dog’.

Vocalist Molly Hamilton says of the new record: “In the past I’ve felt compelled to write songs that are more optimistic than I’m actually feeling, as if I could make it true, as if everything in the past was significant or beautiful in a way, even if it was painful. But the truth is that not everything makes sense, and not every day of your life is an experience of clear cut emotional clarity”.

“I struggle with this compulsion to pull away from people”, she continues. “Pull away from the things I enjoy doing, and sometimes literally picking up and moving away when I am feeling uneasy and anxious about my future in a given space, physical or mental. Social media these days can exacerbate that as well”.
