Phoebe Green announces new album PREMATURE NOSTALGIA, co-produced by her sister Lucy Green (aka Elucyve) | Out 2nd Oct via The Green Dream Machine

 Manchester's Phoebe Green today announces her second album PREMATURE NOSTALGIA, out 2nd October via The Green Dream Machine / Absolute, and shares the visceral lead single 'There's Always Someone Kicking The Seat'.

Written and produced alongside her sister Lucy Green (aka Elucyve) - a producer of contemporary classical and electronic music in her own right - PREMATURE NOSTALGIA was created between the flat the pair share in Manchester and their parents' home in Lytham St Annes.

Speaking about the album, Phoebe explains: "The album mostly explores my tendency to be extremely sentimental and attach value to every little thing - feeling nostalgic before a moment is even over and trying to control the grieving process by going through the motions prematurely in order to prepare myself."

Lead single 'There's Always Someone Kicking The Seat' begins with spoken-word reflections ("a supercut of when things were good / comes flooding back to me") before collapsing into a swirl of melancholic, glitching electronics, ghostly layered harmonies and overwhelming emotional static.

Across the new single and forthcoming album, Phoebe and Lucy draw inspiration from artists such as Imogen Heap, Oklou, Jockstrap, James Blake, FKA twigs and Sega Bodega - embracing warped electronics, fragmented structures and more experimental forms of pop songwriting.

Speaking on the new single release, Phoebe shared:

"We wanted this song to feel extremely visceral, as though the listener is experiencing the story firsthand; it was written in a similar way to ‘Reinvent’ lyrically where I just wanted to get an experience off my chest and melodically nothing fit, so I ended up just talking. It’s maybe my only proper break-up song, and Lucy really beautifully encapsulated the chaotic emotional journey sonically. It felt really fitting for the verses to feel quite matter of fact, recounting events, then melancholic choruses followed by a cathartic outro."

A darker and more enigmatic companion to 2025 EP The Container and her acclaimed debut album Lucky Me, new album PREMATURE NOSTALGIA also features collaborations with Picture Parlour’s Katherine Parlour and incorporates field recordings and metallic textures pulled directly from Manchester’s industrial landscape and club culture.

Throughout, the album remains rooted in the bond between Phoebe and Lucy - sisters, collaborators and proud adopted Mancunians navigating the realities of independent artistry together.

Over the past decade, Phoebe Green has become one of UK alternative pop’s most distinctive voices. Alongside collaborations with Swim Deep, The Big Moon, Holiday87 and Scout, her music has featured in Killing Eve and most recently on the soundtrack to 2026 film Finding Emily - with recent work alongside Lucy marking the pair’s first major step into soundtrack composition.

Phoebe Green's 2025 EP The Container attracted consistent daytime airplay from BBC 6 Music (Nemone, Amy Lamé, Craig Charles, New Music Fix), glowing press support from key tastemakers including The Line of Best Fit, CLASH Magazine, Dork Magazine, DIY Magazine, 1883 Magazine, Far Out Magazine, Popjustice, Rough Trade and covering Spotify's Fresh Finds UK playlist and YouTube Music's young x dazed playlist.

Phoebe Green's new album PREMATURE NOSTALGIA is out 2nd October digitally and on 12" vinyl via The Green Dream Machine / Absolute. New single 'There's Always Someone Kicking The Seat' is out now.
