Laura Gibson Signs to Loose, shares "Sylvia" Single and Announces EU/UK Tour

Tuesday, 10th November 2026

Acclaimed indie folk artist Laura Gibson has signed with Loose (and Fluff & Gravy Records for North America) and we are absolutely over the moon about it. 

To mark today's announcement, Laura Gibson is sharing a new single, "Sylvia," which serves as her first new solo music since 2018's Goners (Barsuk/City Slang). Of the track, she says, "'Sylvia' is one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written. It was a slow revelation. I chipped away at those lyrics over the course of a few years, through a few big life upheavals. It is the story of two women—one who gives in easily to pleasure, one who hopes her discipline might save her. Like a lot of folks, I’ve found myself, in recent years, longing for some definitive source of moral wisdom, some metaphysical 'good' to appeal to. It is often in my communion with other women where I feel closest to such a thing. Both Sylvia and the narrator recognize real goodness in each other, neither is able to see it in themselves. I relate to both characters."
