Natalie Holmes drops new music video “Alone Time” ahead of studio album “Opposite Day”

A nod to that ‘you always want what you can’t have’ feeling, ‘Alone Time’ is a sonic self-confrontation wrapped in shimmering pop meditation.

Where the rest of the album roams, this track stands its ground, providing a steady and unwavering foundation for an eternal tug-of-war between craving solitude and needing connection, coupled with the haunting sense that you might be too tangled to harmoniously share life with another.

Melodic keys based synths pair with a heartbeat 808 kick and addictively silky, catchy vocals, building subtly throughout.

Natalie Holmes – Opposite Day

Alt-pop artist Natalie Holmes is set to release her highly anticipated second album, Opposite Day, on 17/10/25.

Following the success of her debut self-produced album, Vitamin Be (2022), Natalie’s new project takes listeners on a kaleidoscopic journey through the paradoxes of human existence. Like Alice down the rabbit hole, we tumble together through accidental worlds of style and sound that mirror the disorienting beauty of being alive today.

Reaching her arms wide, ’Opposite Day’ involves a team of outrageously talented musicians – Boci, violin; Rob Pemberton, drums & mix, Alex Heane, bass & William J Stokes, co-production – Holmes proudly prepares to release this collection of genre-blurring alt-pop that ping-pongs between introspective ballads and upbeat anthems. With influences ranging from Caroline Polachek & Aurora to The Japanese House & Bon Iver, Opposite Day continues to showcase Natalie’s signature blend of ethereal vocals and thought-provoking lyrics.

Natalie’s musical journey has already seen a sea of milestones. After starting with grainy YouTube videos in 2010, she’s since released several EPs, collaborations, and her debut album, Vitamin Be, which received praise from BBC Radio 2, BBC 6, Clash, and EARMILK. In 2016, she joined Above & Beyond as a lead vocalist on their Acoustic World Tour, performing at legendary venues like the Hollywood Bowl and Royal Albert Hall. Her solo material has captured the attention of fans and critics alike, with Tom Robinson on BBC 6 calling her work “fresh, adventurous, and really assured.”

“An inspired return from a songwriter we will enjoy watching develop over the coming months and years,” wrote Clash about her debut. And indeed, with Opposite Day on the horizon, Natalie is poised to continue that trajectory—finding new ways to connect with listeners through her rivers of wordplay and arresting reflections on the human condition.

Roots firmly planted in the DIY ethos, Natalie remains determined to grow as a songwriter and artist.

Her work also reaches listeners through platforms like Calm, where her music is featured on the #1 sleep and meditation app.
