FKA Twigs, the ethereal, genre-bending artist who never fails to mesmerize, has been announced as the new West Stage headliner for Saturday, August 23.

Twigs’ Recent Triumphs: New Album and Wembley Surprise

The artist’s momentum doesn’t stop there—she surprised fans by joining K-pop giants BLACKPINK for their first-ever Wembley Stadium show, a dazzling crossover moment that showcased her versatile artistry. It’s clear that Twigs is in a vibrant creative flow, ready to deliver a show that blends her signature sound with electrifying stage presence.

FKA Twigs’ New Album EUSEXUA Afterglow and Musical Evolution

Twigs announced EUSEXUA Afterglow during the final show of her summer European tour at the Netherlands’ Lowlands Festival, hinting at the album’s deep, full-bodied emotional themes. She described it as “full and abundant,” with labor to commence shortly—a poetic way to announce new music that fans eagerly awaited.

Before this announcement, she released the high-tempo dance-pop single “Perfectly,” a track filled with the kind of irresistible energy that Twigs fans adore. Whether it will feature on the new album remains a tantalizing mystery.

Her previous album EUSEXUA was met with rave reviews, praised for its blend of music, movement, and spirituality. One glowing review noted:

“She brings her own assured sense of creativity and spirituality and combines it with her ability to materialise the intangible. As the album’s closing track says, ‘You’ve one life to live, do it freely’. What better note to leave it on?”
