Ben Poole Reveals His Upcoming Album “Post-Midnight Behaviour” – Official Announcement
Eight years have come and gone since Ben Poole last released a studio album filled with fresh material. This lengthy interval was not time wasted; instead, it was a period of growth for Poole as he honed his songwriting skills, perfected his performances, and transformed as a musician. On September 25, 2026, he reemerges with “Post-Midnight Behaviour,” a brand-new album that showcases his evolution as an artist while staying true to the expressive guitar playing that has earned him widespread recognition.
The years following the success of “Time Has Come” in 2018 saw Ben Poole engaging in an intense cycle of touring. With a schedule of over 150 shows yearly across more than twenty countries, the British blues-rock guitarist continued to refine his craft both on stage and in the studio. This extensive tour experience allowed him to fine-tune his skills and explore new musical avenues, culminating in the creative renaissance that is “Post-Midnight Behaviour.”
“Post-Midnight Behaviour” represents a new chapter in Ben Poole’s musical career. While blues-rock remains at the core of his sound, the album ventures into uncharted territory, blending elements of soul, country, and alternative rock. This infusion of diverse influences enriches the musical tapestry of the album, adding layers of complexity and depth to Poole’s traditional blues-rock style. Despite embracing these fresh sounds, the album retains the raw emotional intensity and intricate guitar work that has become Ben Poole’s signature.
Scheduled for a worldwide release on September 25, 2026, through Gypsy Soul Records, “Post-Midnight Behaviour” is now open for pre-orders. Fans can secure their copies of the album in CD or vinyl format, as well as digitally pre-save the tracks ahead of its official launch.
The album’s lead single, “No Second Chances,” dropped on July 3, offering a sneak peek into the thematic and sonic landscape of “Post-Midnight Behaviour.” This compelling track serves as the perfect introduction to the album, with its dynamic guitar riffs, rich textures, and poignant lyrical content. Displaying a blend of power and emotion, “No Second Chances” sets the stage for the musical journey that awaits listeners on the full-length album.
