March 25th, 2026 — Globally acclaimed electro-funk trio Jungle return with "Carry On", the first single from their highly anticipated fifth studio album 'Sunshine', set for release on August 14. The track premiered as BBC Radio 1's Hottest Record, marking a powerful introduction to the band's next chapter. Fans can stream the new single HERE and pre-order and pre-save the album HERE.

Comprised of 
J Lloyd, Tom McFarland, and Lydia Kitto, Jungle continue to push their signature blend of soulful vocals, groove-driven production, and cinematic songwriting. "Carry On" is a striking showcase of Lydia Kitto's vocal prowess — effortlessly vulnerable and deeply resonant.

The forthcoming album 
'Sunshine' follows the global success of 2023's 'Volcano', which cemented Jungle's status as a worldwide force. The album has amassed over 1 billion streams globally, earning the band their first BRIT Award and spawning the viral hit "Back On 74", which alone has surpassed 530 million streams and achieved widespread traction across TikTok and global charts.

The album will be available in multiple physical formats, including black 180g single gatefold LP, Desert Peach single gatefold LP, translucent brown marble single gatefold LP and digipak CD.

Further amplifying this momentum, Jungle have announced an expansive global headline tour spanning three continents. Kicking off in North America this September, the tour includes major arena dates in Los Angeles and New York, as well as a landmark performance at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The band will then return to the UK and Europe in November, including a 20,000-capacity homecoming show at London's O2, before heading to Australia in March 2027. Fans who pre-order the album from Jungle's official store will receive access to a pre-sale for tour tickets.
