Atlanta’s girlpuppy Announces UK Tour This May

by | Apr 3, 2025

Girlpuppy, the musical project from Atlanta, GA, USA’s Becca Harvey, has announced a run of UK tour dates this May, including performances at London’s The Lower Third, and Brighton’s Great Escape Festival.

The announcement follows the recent release of girlpuppy’s second full-length album, Sweetness, which dropped on 28th March on Captured Tracks. Sweetness is a raw and deeply personal exploration of the emotions that follow a breakup, touching on themes of grief, transformation, and growth. Written in the wake of a four-year relationship, Harvey’s songwriting unfolds like a journal—honest, detailed, and emotionally resonant.

For the release of Sweetness, girlpuppy has also launched the Sweetness Breakup Mixtape, a collection of 10 playlists each representing a different stage of heartbreak – from denial to acceptance. You can check it out here.

Sweetness includes the singles Since April, a song powered by thick layers of distorted guitar, thunderous drums reminiscent of the pop-punk anthems of her youth, and irresistibly bittersweet hooks, channelling both raw defiance and longing. February lead single I Just Do! captures the thrill and futility of falling for someone emotionally unavailable. Written after a week in LA with a whirlwind crush, the track pairs witty storytelling with chunky guitars, ‘90s snare kicks, and irresistible poison-sweet hooks, and was named one of Rolling Stone US’s Songs You Need To Know. The February release of I Just Do! was complemented by a striking vampire video directed by Trent Wayne (MJ Lenderman, Sinai Vessel) who also directed the video for previous single Windows which was released in January to acclaim, following December’s Champ which drew praise from tastemakers.

The live dates also follow a series of recent Record Release Shows in Atlanta, New York City, and Los Angeles in celebration of the release of Sweetness.
