Perennial Welsh cult icons Helen Love have returned with their new single, Stay With Me, that is now available to stream on all good digital service providers via Alcopop! Records. The track serves as a taste of a larger body of material scheduled for later this year from the always prolific songwriter, with further details to be revealed over the coming months.

“I’ve always loved Northern Soul music, and I’m always buying compilation albums and finding great lost 45s that are just incredible. I think listening to so much of it recently has influenced the writing of this song, and although I could never be as good as those genius writers and singers, I am kinda satisfied that ‘Stay With Me’ has that vibe. Anyway, it’s Spring, the flowers are growing, the cherry blossoms are out and it’s the kind of song I’d like to hear popping out of the radio on a sunny May morning!” (Helen Love)

Stay With Me is the first new material from Helen Love since 2022’s This is My World, a reflective record that saw her taking stock, painting a nuanced and honest portrait of life growing up in Wales. Rolling joyously into her third decade of making music, front-woman Helen Love is undoubtedly now a national punk institution. First releasing records back in 1992, through a career that has undulated from Love And Glitter to Hot Days And Musik, she has persevered, thrived, and reached new generations of fans with each new offering.
