In a press release, Newman said: “The shows this year have meant everything to me. I still get blown away that my songs have taken on a life of their own and rooms full of my people sing them back with so much love and life. My next tour feels like a chance to take that even further with bigger rooms, bigger energy, but the same connection and community! I literally can’t wait! Thank you for all your support, it means the world to me!”
In February, Skye Newman was included in the NME 100: essential emerging artists for 2026, our guide to the artists who have the potential to shape the music industry in the coming years. Her entry describes her as “a rising star of a new generation of UK soul”.
“Whether she’s calling out men who abuse their power on ‘Lonely Girl’ or navigating the fallout of a messy relationship on ‘Hairdresser’, it’s clear that Newman’s fearless approach to songwriting is exactly what’s needed.”
She was also crowned as the winner of BBC Sound Of 2026 in January, a newcomer’s award from the broadcaster that includes The Last Dinner Party, HAIM, and Adele among past winners. The nominees are compiled from votes by music critics and industry figures to award the year’s most promising new talent.
Last November, Skye spoke to NME as part of our Breakout segment, and cited Amy Winehouse, Adele, Bob Marley among her biggest influences. “Coming from a loud, chaotic life, it was a huge thing as a child to see someone so vulnerable as Amy,” she explained.
Discussing famous artists who have championed her music, including Elton John and Ed Sheeran, she said: “It’s been crazy and surreal. I don’t think it’s something I’ll ever get over. Even having conversations and getting advice from these people is mental. I honestly feel like I was born to do this job.”
