Singer, songwriter and producer Absolutely has confirmed that her second album Paracosm will be released on February 20, 2026 via Epic Records.
Alongside the release date, she’s revealed the album’s striking official artwork – a visual extension of the immersive, cinematic world she’s spent the past year painstakingly constructing.
Paracosm (Noun): A fully realized, detailed imaginary world, often created during childhood, that a person develops over a long period, sometimes into adulthood. These subjective universes typically have unique geographies, histories, languages, and characters, and can be a coping mechanism for stress or trauma, or simply a rich creative outlet.
Described as a kaleidoscopic mix of pop, electronica, jazz and R&B, the album features the previously released ‘Goodbye Glitter’, ‘I Just Don’t Know You Yet’ and ‘No Audience’. Each song offers a window into the album’s emotional and sonic scope, cementing Absolutely’s status as one of the most exciting new voices of her generation.
With Paracosm, Absolut not only invites listeners into her world – she gives them permission to rediscover their own imagination, freedom and inner child along the way. Speaking about creating the album, she said: “I had to learn to create like I did as a child – without rules, without fear. Once I dropped back into that freedom, the world of Paracosm opened up completely.”
Paracosm kicking off a huge year for Absolutely, who are currently supporting sister RAYE on her global This tour may include new music, along with his other sister Amma. The tour includes six dates at London’s O2 Arena as well as several nights at venues including New York’s Radio City Music Hall and Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre.
Absolutely will also support Reneé Rapp on the European leg of her upcoming arena tour. Additionally, she has a string of festival appearances lined up, including sets at Governor’s Ball in New York and Bottle Rock in Napa Valley.
