Bristol-based alt-indie quartet Adult Leisure are proud to announce that their debut album ‘The Things You Don’t Know Yet’ will be released on October 3rd 2025. Its latest single ‘See Her’ was released on May 9th, featuring guest saxophone from longtime The 1975 / Sam Fender collaborator John Waugh.

The track follows February’s celebrated release ‘Dancing Don’t Feel Right’, championed by The Line of Best Fit, Pop Journal and Ones To Watch. The album’s previous singles ‘Kiss Me Like You Miss Her’ and ‘Borderline’ saw support from BBC Radio 6’s Indie Forever show, The Line Of Best Fit, Fresh on the Net and multiple Spotify editorial playlists with ‘Borderline’ being used to open an E4 Made In Chelsea episode, their first national TV sync placement.

‘See Her’, recorded and mixed with Ollie Searle at Humm Studios and mastered by John Webber (David Bowie, Duran Duran, Coach Party) is a blink-and-you’ll-miss it pocket rocket of vibrant energy. Through nostalgia-laden melodies and singalong choruses that Adult Leisure are fast becoming known for, ‘See Her’ offers a sarcastic take on the breakdown of a relationship and the biting realisation that you’re happier now that it's over.

On the single’s lyrical inspirations, vocalist and lyricist Neil Scott explains, “We wrote ‘See Her’ towards the end of 2023. In its full form, almost two years later, it's developed into a song unapologetically soaked in pop, yet true to who we are and the stories we want to tell. Lyrically, ‘See Her’ offers a sarcastic take on the breakdown of a relationship. Far from doom and gloom or sorrow, it’s about that feeling you get when you realise just how much better off you are now that it’s over.

“The song features the incredible John Waugh (The 1975, Sam Fender) on saxophone. When we found out that he was interested in joining the project, we were over the moon - he adds the perfect bit of spice this tune has been waiting for since its inception. 

“This song means everything to us, and we cannot wait for people to hear it and sing their lungs out to it.”

A 12 date headline album tour has just been announced, commencing at London’s Sebright Arms and ending at Liverpool’s Kazimier Stockroom including renowned venues such as Manchester’s Night & Day Cafe, and Bristol’s Thekla, their biggest hometown headline to date, tickets are on sale now and available at https://linktr.ee/adultleisure.
