The Big Moon[’s] … following is based on really good songs, and possibly the sense that they’re growing up alongside their audience… the first single from Forever, Gravity, deals with picking up your child from nursery. It is, typically, excellent.”
– The Guardian (The Best Music of Autumn 2026)

The Big Moon share their new single ‘F.O.R.E.V.E.R.’ from forthcoming fourth studio album Forever, due for release on Friday 30th October via Fiction Records.

Through F.O.R.E.V.E.R’s grooving rhythms, the band reflects on finding purpose and meaning in life’s smallest actions, even when they might feel insignificant: “F.O.R.E.V.E.R is about comparing the interconnectedness of everything in the universe with our tiny lives here on earth and remembering that however small you feel, you still have an effect. You are still part of something much bigger than you and your body and whatever you might be wrapped up in,” they add

What happens after happily ever after? And how do you make forever count? These are the preoccupations at the heart of The Big Moon’s buoyant yet beautifully bittersweet fourth album, Forever.

Four years on from last LP Here Is Everything – and a further eight since frontwoman Juliette Jackson first laid the foundations for the band – the London-formed four-piece find themselves in a very different, if similarly challenging, headspace. Where that record was conceived in the context of COVID and found Jackson processing the life-altering experience of new motherhood, Forever examines what’s left when you’ve already checked off many of the major milestones, and is tempered by a first-hand understanding of life’s fragility.

The truth is, the past couple of years have been a big readjustment for Jackson. In 2024, she was diagnosed with a cholesteatoma – a benign but destructive cyst inside the eardrum which has to be removed with surgery. Jackson explains, “I permanently lost most of the hearing on one side, which was pretty much existential, because writing songs is my job and my identity.”

Stoic by nature, Jackson forged forward with songwriting regardless but found herself faltering. “I couldn’t hear properly, everything sounded out of tune and I was just struggling to find a point at all, just writing these miserable songs I couldn’t really hear.” The answer was to shift her outlook completely, manifesting “a happy ending that didn’t exist yet.”

“I just decided to write songs for this imaginary time, one or two years in the future, when I would be all healed and happy again. I didn’t know if I would ever get to that point but, by projecting and almost tricking myself into it, it actually became a really nice way of writing.”
