Multi-platinum UK artist Newton Faulkner today releases his brand new single Gravitational and announces his 2026 first Australian album tour. The single is the latest taste of his forthcoming album OCTOPUS, which will be released on 6 March 2026 through Cooking Vinyl Records.
Co-written with INK, Gravitational captures the jolt of connection that pulls you toward someone before you have even realised what is happening. The single blends rhythmic drive, layered vocals and flashes of synth and vocoder, showcasing the playful production style that defines Faulkner’s new era.
“INK and I wrote this about someone completely catching you off guard and blowing your mind, like being pulled into a tractor beam,” Faulkner says.
“I got to use all my toys on this one, even my vocoder. People still think of me as the acoustic wood and strings guy, but half my life is spent playing synths and messing with loops. I hope it is as fun to listen to as it was to make.”
Gravitational follows the release of Hunting Season featuring Lissie and Los Bitchos and the distorted bass driven Alright Alright Alright, both of which introduced a new sonic direction for Faulkner built around collaboration, experimentation and a refreshed creative energy.
Today’s release arrives alongside the announcement of a full Australian headline tour in April 2026, marking Faulkner’s long awaited return to the country he calls one of his favourite places to perform.
“Australia has always felt like a second home for me, Faulkner says.
“The crowds, the connection, the energy. I cannot wait to bring the new songs, the new album and new energy to the Australian stages.”
