Howard recently released her single ‘Red Flags’ which was taken from her forthcoming second solo album ‘What Now’. The LP is due for release on February 9 and is available for pre-save/pre-order here. It is the second single from that album, following the title track which was released back in October of last year. Howard’s new album will be her first since signing with Island Records.

The Alabama Shakes singer released her debut solo album ‘Jaime’ in 2019, earning her multiple Grammy nominations, including Best Alternative Music Album and Best Rock Song.

Her debut solo LP was named after her late sister, who died from cancer as a teenager. Speaking to NME, Howard explained that it was Jaime who taught her to play piano. “She was the beginning of everything for me,” she said. “She definitely trained me up and taught me about songs.”

In 2018, Alabama Shakes, the band Howard formed with guitarist Heath Fogg, bassist Zac Cockrell and drummer Steve Johnson, announced they were going on hiatus, with Howard saying she intended to focus on her solo career.
