Shed Seven return with their seventh studio album and, appropriately, have chosen to make it self-titled. Arriving after without question the most successful periods in the band's history, Shed Seven follows the remarkable achievement of scoring two UK Number One albums in 2024 - a feat matched by only a handful of artists including The Beatles, Elton John and Led Zeppelin. More than 30 years after they first emerged from York, the band find themselves enjoying a creative and commercial resurgence few could have predicted. 

Rather than looking backwards, Shed Seven is a record focused firmly on the present. Written and recorded with renewed confidence and purpose, it captures a band continuing to push themselves while staying true to the qualities that have earned them such a loyal following over the years. 

The album is introduced by lead single 'Stand Together', a song that sets the tone for what follows. As Rick explains, it is “a call to arms and a rallying cry for some kind of unity in the world we live in today.” 

For a band that has already enjoyed a career most artists could only dream of, Shed Seven feels less like a victory lap and more like the start of another chapter. Self-titled, ambitious and full of belief, it stands as a statement of where Shed Seven are today… and where they are heading next.
