NAO Releases Her Fourth Studio Album ‘JUPITER’ + Tour Tour Dates.
singer-songwriter Nao releases her highly anticipated fourth studio album Jupitervia Sony Music UK/RCA Records. This latest project is a concept album centered around pure optimism, growth and abundance. Featuring the powerful and poignant focus track “30 Something,” Jupiter takes listeners on a transformative journey, wrapped in Nao’s signature ethereal vocals and genre-blending sound. “30 Something” is a coming-of-age anthem that reflects on the beauty of getting older, embracing the present, and letting go of the past – a theme that resonates deeply throughout the album.
When asked about her new album, Nao states: “Jupiter is the sister album to Saturn. Where Saturn was about tough lessons and growth, Jupiter is about coming through the other side. It’s an album of hope, joy, and trust, of embracing expansion after struggle, of letting go and stepping into something greater. This music is a reflection of that freedom, a soundtrack for the moment when you realize the universe was always working in your favor.”
Jupiter was recorded in collaboration with some of Nao’s longtime creative partners, including producers Loxe and Stint, whose musical chemistry with Nao has been refined over the past decade. Additional contributions from esteemed songwriters and musicians like Kareem James, Dyo, Soaky, Lauren Keen Dayyon, Nate Cypher, Carol Ades, Vince Kidd, Prgrssn, Grades, Scribz, Royce Wood Jr., and Toby Gadd helped shape the album’s rich sonic palette. Inspired by Jupiter’s astrological significance – symbolizing luck, joy and expansion – Nao crafted a body of work designed to uplift, inspire and bring a sense of warmth and optimism. The visual elements surrounding Jupiter have been beautifully crafted by frequent collaborator Lillie Eiger (Arlo Parks, Florence Welch), with creative direction from SpaceBroth, merging the album’s themes into a cohesive visual narrative.
To support this release, Nao will embark on a 2025 North American, UK and European tour, following her incredible recent performance at the MOBO Awards. Known for her spellbinding live shows, this tour promises to bring Jupiter themes to life in an unforgettable experience across the globe. The album rollout began with a series of stunning singles and intimate, sold-out shows in Los Angeles, New York, London, and Amsterdam, all selling out within seconds. With each release, Nao built momentum for album release. This record is more than just music – it’s an experience, a sonic journey of joy, self-compassion, and boundless optimism.
