Overview
- Young released the single “From Down Here” on Friday, May 22, 2026, her first new music since last year’s album I’m Only F**king Myself.
- The track was co-written and co-produced by James Blake with contributions from Jameela Jamil and Dominic Maker, and Blake added background vocals, keyboards, and strings while Maker handled bass and drum programming.
- The song grew out of a burst of inspiration the day after the GRAMMYs and follows Young’s recovery from an onstage collapse at All Things Go that prompted a canceled North American tour and a months-long hiatus.
- Young has said she paired addiction treatment with therapy and has overhauled her relationship to work, and she is scheduled to play a U.K. headline run in June plus U.S. festival dates including All Things Go and Austin City Limits.
- The release frames a creative reboot for Young that could shape her setlists, public presence, and touring pace as she returns to live performance and promotes more sonically expansive material.
