The announcement follows November’s 20th-anniversary reissue of Life in Slow Motion, released as its first-ever vinyl edition, including unreleased demos and previously unheard tracks. Nightjar draws from the same sessions, capturing material that sat alongside the eventual album as Gray and his collaborators moved through an open-ended and prolific period of writing and recording.

Out 27th February 2026 via Bella Figura Music.
