Following back-to-back sold-out headline shows in London, alt-pop trio Exploring Birdsong step confidently into a new era with their striking new single “42.”

Centered on Lynsey Ward‘s arresting vocals, the band unveil a richer, more expansive sound that marks a clear evolution from the organic rawness of their piano-led beginnings. “42” balances emotional depth with cinematic ambition, showcasing a maturity and sonic confidence that signals a bold new chapter for the group.

Speaking of the track, Ward shares, “’42’ is a song about paranoia, conspiracy theories and confirmation bias — it is written from the perspective of someone who has lost touch with reality, seeing patterns in their day to day life that are leading them to some answer, or a warning — but never quite getting the full picture of what it could all mean. Thematically, the song was drawn from personal experience in childhood, where a few coincidences with numbers could spiral into a feeling of being ‘followed’ by a number or symbol, and like the storyline of the rest of your life was being written with this at the centre, or as a clue.”

She expands, “Conspiracy theories are more rife than ever, especially after spreading like wildfire during the pandemic. We wanted to present this as a sympathetic look at how something so simple can go so wrong, and where that desperation can lead; a state of anxiety, isolation, and losing touch with the world around you. The great irony is that, to some degree, we have now become the people in the story. We each notice the number ’42’ so regularly now that we update one another every time it pops up somewhere unexpected.”

Exploring Birdsong have announced a headline UK tour this September. Dates start in Glasgow on the 23rd before stopping off in London and Bristol before concluding in Manchester on the 26th.

Exploring Birdsong have evolved into one of the UK’s most compelling and unclassifiable modern bands. Following a bold shift in sound first signaled by the acclaimed 2024 singles “The Collapse,” “Weight in Gold,” “All I Lack,” and “Stitch,” the three-piece have expanded their sonic palette without sacrificing the emotional intimacy and genre-blurring beauty that defines them.

Fronted by the unmistakable voice of Lynsey Ward, alongside Jonny Knight (bass, keyboards) and Matt Harrison (drums), Exploring Birdsong craft a sound that seamlessly weaves vulnerability, heaviness, and intricate songwriting into something entirely their own. Their approach to modern heavy music feels both cinematic and deeply personal, balancing raw feeling with experimental ambition.

By 2025, the band’s reputation had translated into undeniable momentum. Exploring Birdsong sold out two headline shows at London’s iconic St Pancras Old Church in a matter of minutes, following on from two equally sold-out headline showcases in Manchester and London the year prior. These landmark performances cemented their status as a band whose live presence resonates just as powerfully as their recordings.

The trio have previously shared stages with Katatonia and Sleep Token, alongside main stage appearances at RADAR Festival and Euroblast, further showcasing their ability to connect across scenes and audiences. Straddling pop, progressive rock, and an uncategorizable spectrum of sound, Exploring Birdsong remain largely unplaceable. Touchstones can be found in the inventive edge of Everything Everything, the dramatic flair of Kate Bush, and the synth-driven intensity of Enter Shikari — yet the result is unmistakably, and uniquely, Exploring Birdsong.
EXPLORING BIRDSONG ARE:
