Rip it up and start again. That seems to be what we’re all up to. Everyone is breaking up, everyone is cutting their hair, mercury is forever in whatever grade and a slight chaos is always lingering in the air, we love it. 

For issue 8, we’re interested in reinvention. Talking to a series of artists on the precipice, prepping for new eras, new albums, new tours, new chapters - Birdy was an obvious cover star. Shedding her old skin and stepping into a bold new self, no longer the teenager that began it all, Emma Way speaks to her about change.

Elsewhere, Baby Queen shares realisations as she prepares to re-launch, Baxter Dury puts the pressure on and Matt Maltese invites you to unlearn your old self. Big Joanie demand a shake up, Nick Cave lets us into his inner world and The Lemon Twigs talk processes.

Meet our four Hello Tomorrow picks and a scattering of one to watch from around the UK. 

Taking place in the deep breath before a big leap - things are about to shift and it was a pleasure to host conversations in the moment before.
