In the year that marks a decade since Blossoms’ debut #1 album, they deliver their first new song of 2026
Blossoms return with their brand new single Joke About Divorce, out now via ODD SK Recordings / Distiller Music. Following a landmark 2024 that saw them secure their fourth UK No.1 album with Gary and play to tens of thousands of fans across a sold-out UK tour, the band step into a new era with their first new material since the expanded edition of Gary.
Joke About Divorce produced by Shawn Lee and with a video directed by singer Tom Ogden, finds Blossoms leaning into the sharp, observational songwriting that has long set them apart, balancing emotional honesty with their unique sense of humour.
Frontman Tom Ogden says: “During every argument, no matter how big or small, there’s always that moment where humour could completely disarm you both and diffuse the whole thing. On this occasion, I thought joking about divorce would do exactly that… I just got the timing completely wrong. Instead, it made things worse, and that moment ended up immortalised in a three-and-a- half-minute pop song.”
This summer will see the band return to the festival circuit, headlining Neighbourhood Weekender and appearing at Tramlines.
Joke About Divorce’signals the start of a new phase for Blossoms, with more new music to follow later this year.
