Wings of Desire - AKA Chloe Little and James Taylor - release new single ‘Your Twenties’ as they continue their project releasing a new track on every new moon of the 2026 lunar cycle, each track arriving with a unique, thematic visual. They also announce a UK tour for December, with tickets on sale Wednesday May 20th.

Each track will combine to form an album called Stand Still Like The Hummingbird on the final new moon of the year - December 9th - with every release being accompanied by a visual piece as well.

In many senses it is a continuation of the duo’s previous record Life is Infinite (2023), which established their trademark gritty dream-pop meets krautrock sound. It draws on themes of a chaotic world, and staying sane in a highly accelerated culture. Across the piece the collection also touches on the natural rituals of daily life and moving through creation and destruction. There’s references to life and birth, as well as folklore and wonder in the visuals.

New single ‘Your Twenties’ leans into Wings of Desire’s haziest impulses, a sprawling wall of noise infused with sweet melody, marrying pastel-coloured sonic styles. Thematically takes a wistful view on a time that’s often viewed through rose tinted glasses, as they explain:

“Your twenties explores the reality of living through what’s seen as being your peak when in reality can often be the opposite, filled with learning curves and hard lessons. A nostalgic look at an an era gone by and a hopeful outlook on what’s to come. Some say these are the best years of your life.”
