Australian alternative folk band The Paper Kites have announced the release of their seventh studio album If You Go There, I Hope You Find It, arriving on January 23 via Nettwerk Music Group.

Coming in support of the new record, the band will also go on a 2026 UK and EU tour, including shows in Belfast's Limelight on February 17 and in Dublin’s 3Olympia on February 18.

To herald the announcement, The Paper Kites will be releasing their brand new single ‘Every Town’, this Friday, September 12.

If You Go There, I Hope You Find It features the upcoming single as well as their recent effort ‘When The Lavender Blooms’, recorded at Melbourne’s legendary Sing Sing Studios and mixed by multi-Grammy Award winner Jon Low.

This week, the band is set to return to the U.S. for a string of headline shows, alongside select support dates on The Teskey Brothers’ North American tour.

Since their formation in 2009, The Paper Kites have amassed over two billion global streams. Their breakout track ‘Bloom’ is now multi-Platinum across several countries, and was memorably covered by Kelly Clarkson on The Kelly Clarkson Show. Their music has also soundtracked shows such as Grey’s Anatomy, This Is Us and Virgin River.
