Erasure have announced their new album, Radio!! Radio!!, set for release on March 12, 2027, via Mute, alongside new single “Wings Of Love” and details of a UK and European arena tour, including a Dublin show at 3Arena on May 3.
The record marks Andy Bell and Vince Clarke’s first studio album in six years and their 20th album release, arriving as the duo celebrate 40 years since the release of their debut album.
Premiered on BBC Radio 2, new single “Wings Of Love” brings Erasure’s unmistakable synth-pop sound together with lyrics exploring love, loneliness and gratitude for the people who have shaped Bell’s life.
Radio!! Radio!! is described as one of the duo’s most personal records, with songs addressing love, loss, injustice and hope. Written following a difficult period of grief, the album also reflects the strength of Bell and Clarke’s songwriting partnership after four decades together.
Speaking about the record, Clarke said:
“Some of the songs are quite reflective of stuff that’s been going on in my life, but not all of them. We didn’t have to think about it or talk about it – it just happened that way.”
Bell also reflected on the relationship at the heart of Erasure:
“When you’re a songwriting partnership for so long, it’s very deep, kind of like a soul connection. You trust that person with your life, and because of the nature of songwriting, you just lay bare your soul. That becomes a sacred space.”
Musically, the album builds on Erasure’s familiar electronic foundations while introducing additional textures. Clarke found himself increasingly drawn to piano, inspired by composers including Erik Satie, as well as acoustic guitar, bringing a more organic quality to parts of the recording.
Erasure have also confirmed plans to return to the road in 2027, with a 20-date arena tour beginning at Cardiff’s Utilita Arena on April 25.
The UK and Ireland leg includes shows in Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow and London, as well as Dublin’s 3Arena on May 3. Ladytron will join Erasure as special guests throughout the UK and Ireland dates before the tour continues to Germany, Denmark and Sweden.
Vince Clarke will serve as musical director for the tour but will not appear onstage alongside Andy Bell, having decided to step away from extensive touring following his move to California.
Explaining the decision, Clarke said:
“I told Andy, and he made me musical director, and I thought, ‘how fantastic is that?’ I can do all my work and all my direction from here, but I don’t have to leave sunny San Diego.”
Bell added:
“I’m so pleased that we were able to find a way for the tour to work for Vince. He’s always too modest but he’s so much more than the Musical Director, Vince is one of the great loves of my life and everything we do as Erasure we decide together.”
Four decades into their career, Radio!! Radio!! finds Bell and Clarke continuing to explore new territory within the sound that has defined their partnership, this time with a particularly personal collection of songs shaped by friendship, loss and healing.
