Holly Humberstone has announced that she will release her new EP Work In Progress in March 2024. The EP features new single Dive.
News of the release comes ahead of a run of UK tour dates for Holly Humberstone opening at Manchester’s Albert Hall.
The Manchester gig comes one week ahead of the EP release.
The award-winning singer and songwriter Holly Humberstone collected four songs from uncut demos which represented older versions of herself mixed up with present versions. The EP features new song Dive, the first track shared from the EP. Dive marks a warning to a guy not to get involved. As she opens, “Honey I’m spiralling, the web that I’m tangled in, just isn’t built for two. So before I let you in, tread lightly, just tread lightly.”

Speaking about the EP, the BRIT and Ivor Novello nominated Holly Humberstone said, “Every song starts as a work in progress. Some stay as demos and ideas, others find new life with more production. But these songs were demos I couldn’t leave behind. I went back through the archives and discovered these lost older versions of myself mixed up with the present version of me. I wanted to release them this year – as I start touring again and since the release of my debut album – as a work in progress for my fans. I’m very much a work in progress, and I think this body of work feels impulsive and more like a stream of consciousness to me. Dive is the first song I’m dropping today. I wrote it a few years ago as a kind of warning to a guy to not get involved with me. I was worried I’d hurt him. Whenever I think about the highs and lows of past and present relationships, it reminds me that life will always be evolving and changing in ways that I can’t predict, and I think that’s ok!”
