WILDES announces second album All We Do Is Feel

WILDES unveils new album with transformative sound and new single All I Get

London-based singer-songwriter WILDES, (aka Ella Walker), has announced her second album All We Do Is Feel will land in September. The album promises a major reinvention in sound and approach, emerging from a period of personal and artistic transformation.

Co-produced with close friend Elena Garcia of Tonguetied, the album was recorded in Garcia’s childhood home. It sees WILDES explore electronic textures for the first time, drawing influence from Boards of Canada, Sylvan Esso and Samia. With almost no organic instrumentation, the record embraces a DIY aesthetic and prioritises emotional rawness — often keeping first vocal takes to preserve their instinctive intensity.

Thematically, All We Do Is Feel is a narrative of heartbreak, healing and self-rediscovery. It also marks a source of liberation for WILDES. Where she once edited out imperfections, she now embraces them fully.

The album follows WILDES’ 2022 debut Other Words Fail Me, a stark breakup record written before the breakup itself. Her early success came with debut single Bare at age 19, followed by acclaimed EPs Let You Go and Illuminate. Her cover of Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right earned praise from Bob Dylan himself.

New single All I Get, released today alongside an official video, offers the first glimpse of the album’s evolved sound.

Speaking about All I Get, Ella Walker said, “Writing ‘All I Get’ really took me on a path I wasn’t expecting, both in its messaging and how the production emerged. It was a liberating song to write – I had spent months musing on how little I had, how so much had been taken from me emotionally, leaving me feeling bereft – but I realised in writing it, that ‘all’ I had left was in fact abundant and rich. Left in the wake of that break-up was evidence that I had really lived and loved, I had received so much support from those around me, and I had made it through a transformative period that pushed me into becoming a better person. This song makes me feel like a living thing.”
