What’s In Between

TBA

Australian new wave/post-punk band Radio Free Alice are excited to announce their debut album What’s In Between, available October 30, 2026 via Atlantic Records. Today’s announcement is heralded by the rapturous new single “Crying With You,” which arrives alongside an official music video directed by Milo Hume (Geese, Quarters).  

Keeping the unrelenting buzz of their live shows going, the band will play at Reading Festival this weekend and will return to the US soon, having recently been added to Chicago’s Riot Fest on September 18 and Austin City Limits on October 9. Stirring up speculation ahead of the album announcement, Radio Free Alice played a free, DIY pop-up show in London on August 19. Teasing the show online, the guerrilla gig saw over 500 electrified fans flock to see the band play with the South London railway as the backdrop.

Of today’s release, lead singer Noah Learmonth says, “We wrote ‘Crying With You’ whilst on a writing retreat in Joshua Tree in California. We were staying at this beautiful property owned by producer Nicolas Vernhes, surrounded by desert and Joshua trees for about a week and recorded a handful of demos and jams. The verse and chorus were originally different songs, but we stitched them together, which is something we like to do quite a lot”

“It’s a huge relief to finally announce the album. We’ve lived with these songs for such a long time and they’ve become such a big part of our lives, so knowing there’s now a date when they’ll finally exist outside of us feels incredibly cathartic,” he reflects. 

Today’s single and the album at large sees the band continue their work across continents with famed producer Peter Katis, who is known for his work with Interpol, Death Cab for Cutie, The National and many others. The album’s production was also shaped by the keen ears of Ewan Pearson (Depeche Mode, Franz Ferdinand) and Finn Billingham.

Last month, the band shared “Kick in the Shins.” Like a frenzied stumble through whatever life deals the band on any given day, the narrative is driven by Learmonth’s quick-witted storytelling and punctuated by the sharp uppercut of Michael Phillips’ saxophone. 

To kick off the summer, Radio Free Alice made their debut release on Atlantic Records with the single “Lunch Money.” That weekend, they went on to make their debut Gov Ball performance in NYC along with a sold-out after-show at Baby’s All Right. The band’s recent performances and new single received praise from Rolling Stone, PAPER, Billboard, NME, the FADER and many others. Other highlights of the road include opening for Geese on their sold-out Australian tour and selling out six headline shows in London last year.

The band is currently in the midst of playing a massive run of summer festivals with the UK's Reading Festival this weekend. Today, they’ve revealed an extensive UK/EU tour.
