Songs from the Wedding Cake is the upcoming sixth studio album by the English indie pop band Blossoms. It is due to be released on 2 October 2026 through ODD SK Recordings.[3] The album is supported by the singles "Joke About Divorce"[1] and "Meet Me in Love".[2]
Background and recording
The album was recorded at Tilehouse Studios and produced by Shawn Lee, who Dewhurst had contacted online when he was 13 years old, due to being a fan of Lee's work on the soundtrack for Bully.[3][4]
The album takes its name from the Stockport Town Hall, which is nicknamed "the wedding cake", where Ogden got married.[3]
Promotion
On 20 April 2026, the lead single "Joke About Divorce" was premiered on BBC Radio 1, alongside a music video starring Callum Scott Howells and Rick Astley, who also performs vocals on the track.[1] On 15 June 2026, the second single "Meet Me In Love" was also premiered on Radio 1, with its music video starring Howells, Maya Jama and Declan McKenna, who performs backing vocals on the track.[2]
On 18 June 2026, the band posted an announcement video for the album starring James Buckley, which revealed the album title and cover art. The track listing was also revealed, alongside dates for the band's first ever arena tour, including dates at Manchester's Co-op Live and London's Alexandra Palace, with support from The Royston Club. The band also teased appearances from Rick Astley and Inhaler's Elijah Hewson.[3][5]
In the days following the announcement, the band crashed three weddings across the north-west, where they rocked up in a van to play short sets. After the final wedding, the band showed up outside 42's Nightclub in Manchester to play a set.[6]
