Sienna Spiro has announced her debut album ‘Visitor’, which will be released later this summer.
The new record is set to arrive on July 3 via Capitol Records, and comes on the heels of the singer’s debut EP ‘Sink Now, Swim Later’ dropping last year, and her also writing the song ‘Material Lover’ exclusively for The Devil Wears Prada 2 Soundtrack. Visit here to pre-order.
Spiro describes the debut album as a blend of rich soul and symphonic pop, which come together to tackle themes of love and loss, as well as the fragility of life.
It came together in a variety of legendary spaces like Electric Lady Studios in New York, Abbey Road Studios in London, and Valentine Recording Studios in Los Angeles, and was executive produced by Omer Fedi (Sam Smith, SZA).
Other production came from Blake Slatkin, Yakob, and Michael Pollack, as well as orchestral composers like Larry Gold (Al Green, Silk Sonic) and Academy Award winner Peter Rotter.
“I’ve always had a strong awareness of impermanence; I’m very fearful of things ending and people leaving,” Spiro said, touching on the themes of the album. “It’s so intense that I often won’t participate in new relationships or anything I know won’t last, so in a way I’ve spent most of my life feeling like a visitor — like someone who’s just passing through.”
“Making this album really taught me how to savour things in the moment, instead of constantly worrying about the future,” she continued. “When people hear the record, I hope it helps them to find some comfort in the fact that everything is temporary. We don’t always have to rush to let go — we can let things matter without needing them to last.”
Already the singer-songwriter has shared three tracks from the record: the sweeping title track, the heartfelt ‘Die On This Hill’, and ‘You Stole The Show’, which arrived last summer.
The singer has recently wrapped her inaugural North American headlining run of tour dates celebrating the new music, and other accolades include being shortlisted for the BRIT Awards’ Critics’ Choice for 2026 award, landing on Forbes‘ latest 30 Under 30 list, and getting two nominations at the American Music Awards.
Now, she is set to bring her ‘Visitor Tour’ across the pond, with UK and European headline shows lined up for later this month. From there, she will make numerous appearances at festivals including Montreux Jazz Festival, All Points East, Lollapalooza and more.

Last spring, Spiro featured on NME’s Radar, and she reflected on the huge praise she was getting for debut EP ‘Sink Now, Swim Later’, as well as what it was like to work with Finneas.
Looking back at how she went viral after sharing a cover of his song ‘Break My Heart Again’ on TikTok, Spiro told us: “I filmed that cover literally just before I was about to get on a train to go to Reading Festival. I remember I posted it the first day I joined music college. I didn’t think anything of it, and then it was so overwhelming.
“It reached a bunch of people and I got so many messages from people that wanted to collaborate and people that wanted to meet. The most full circle thing to me was I ended up doing a session with him last year.”
