Chvrches Releases Roses After Five-Year Break
Chvrches has released Roses, its first new material in five years, and announced two secret shows while continuing work on a new album.
Chvrches has released Roses as its return single, marking the group’s first new material in five years. Roses is described as a politically themed song, differing from the disco-pop style of the group’s 2021 album Screen Violence. The group has also announced two secret shows, with one taking place in Glasgow on October 26 and the other in London on October 29. Fans can enter a ticket draw for the shows, with all proceeds going to charity.
Lauren Mayberry said the break between albums was the longest break the group has had so far. Chvrches told fans last summer that they had started working on a new album. Martin Doherty said the new project was 90 percent complete. Mayberry released her first solo LP, Vicious Creatures, in December 2024.
Doherty and Scott started the rave-influenced project The Leaving this year. Iain Cook released a remix of The Cranberries’ 1993 track Linger in 2024.
