Zara Larsson Unveils New Single “Midnight Sun”
In a move that is set to electrify the music scene, multi-platinum chart-topping global pop sensation Zara Larsson has released her highly anticipated new single “Midnight Sun”. According to a report by The Music Universe, the energetic track is the title song of Larsson’s fourth international album, Midnight Sun, which is slated for release on September 26th via Sommer House/Epic Records.
The official music video for “Midnight Sun” is expected to premiere in the near future. Fans can get their hands on the album with an exclusive run of merchandise and physical product, including limited edition signed CDs and autographed vinyl. As noted by The Music Universe, the album has been crafted over the last year with frequent collaborator MNEK, alongside producers Margo XS and Zhone, as well as songwriter Helena Gao.
Larsson’s latest offering is a true tour-de-force, with the ten-track album rippling with confidence and storytelling that bursts with truth and vulnerability. As The Music Universe reports, the album plumbs the depth and growth of Larsson’s artistry and journey over nearly 20 years in the public eye. The album is unafraid to show all sides of the 27-year-old: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, cocky, flippant, and uncertain, often in the same breath.
In an interview, Larsson explained the inspiration behind the album and its hypnotizing title track, saying: “I really am proud of my Swedish pop heritage, so I wanted to write about a Swedish summer where the sun never goes down. I wanted the whole album to feel like it’s a summer night and it never ends. And it doesn’t matter if it’s December: the summer night will be there for you. It’s waiting for you, it will come back for you, and you will come back for it.” This statement was quoted in The Music Universe‘s coverage of the release.
In addition to the new single, tickets have gone on sale to the public for the European headlining leg of Larsson’s Midnight Sun Tour, which begins on October 28th in Munich and wraps up on November 28th in Stockholm. This follows news of her upcoming February 2026 Australia/New Zealand dates with OneRepublic and her 2025 North American tour with Tate McRae, which begins on August 4th and culminates with back-to-back shows in Los Angeles on September 26-27, in line with the release of Larsson’s album.
Larsson recently kicked off the new era with the confident and rowdy “Pretty Ugly”, alongside an incredible music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford and choreographed by Zoi Tatopoulos. As The Music Universe noted, the video is fierce, feral, and completely unapologetic. With her new single and album on the horizon, Larsson is set to take the music world by storm.
The release of “Midnight Sun” marks a new chapter in Larsson’s illustrious career, which has seen her rise to become a global pop powerhouse. With her unique sound and captivating live performances, Larsson is sure to continue to thrill fans around the world. As The Music Universe reports, Larsson’s music continues to be eagerly anticipated by fans and critics alike.
