The Joy Formidable have announced that they will be releasing a digital deluxe edition of their "Into The Blue" album on September 14th and have shared a lyric video for the song "Somewhere New".

The Into The Blue Deluxe Edition will be feature two new songs as well as new artwork. Ritzy Bryan had this to say,, "It's been a strange feeling, to release an album (in 2021) & not get the chance to share it live with an audience, especially an album like Into the Blue that has a lot of live energy.

"We feel like it deserves that moment and we wanted to re-visit the recorded version with some new tracks ahead of the tour. Will be nice to get out there with The Front Bottoms, Cuffed Up and Tres Leches."

The band will be hitting the road to support the album for a U.S. tour this fall, which is kicking off on September 3rd in Austin. Bryan said of the trek, "We finally get to see you North American friends We've missed you so much. It's been almost three years since our last full length tour of the USA & Canada.

"The interim bore a new album - Into the Blue, some beautiful online shows & a much grown back catalogue within our TJF Music Club. We've been busy & connected but time to come together again, with gusto & a degree of madness with three packed months of headline, festival and support shows."
