Venus is the upcoming fourth studio album by Swedish singer Zara Larsson. It is scheduled to be released on 9 February 2024 by Sommer House and Epic. It was preceded by the singles "Can't Tame Her", "End of Time", "On My Love", with David Guetta, and "You Love Who You Love".

To promote the album, Larsson will embark on the Venus Tour, which is scheduled to begin on 16 February 2024 in Manchester, United Kingdom and will conclude on 26 July in Oulu, Finland.[1]

Background

On 30 December 2022, Larsson announced that her upcoming album was 70% finished at the time.[2] For the project, Larsson enlisted songwriters and producers Casey Smith, Rick Nowels and Danja to help her "pin down" the sounds she wanted to include. Nowels in particular assisted in creating a "foundation" for her new album, enabling Larsson to "do a little bit of this and a little bit of that".[3] In an interview with the Official Charts Company in April 2023, she told fans to expect "uptempo, fun dance songs" as well as the "emotional balance". Larsson referred to the project as a "full-on rollercoaster ride of emotion".[4] In May 2023, she described the record as "super fun" and summed it up as a "collection of really good music", ranging from ballads to "dancey" tracks.[5]

Larsson officially announced the album on 26 October 2023 via Instagram.[6] Venus sees the singer "assume greater ownership" over her output.[7] A press release described the record as a "pop album fit for a goddess" that determines Larsson's "own agenda" partly by "looking back on where she's come from".[8] It includes the singles "Can't Tame Her", "End of Time" and "On My Love".[9] The album's release is set to be accompanied by a European headlining tour, the Venus Tour, which will take place from February to July 2024.[10]

Singles

"Can't Tame Her" was released on 26 January 2023 as the lead single from Venus, alongside its music video.[11][12] The song entered the top five and top ten in Sweden and Norway, respectively, and peaked within the top ten of four other territories' airplay charts. The album's second single, "End of Time", was released on 19 May 2023, with a music video premiering the next day.[13]

"On My Love" was released as the third single from the album on 15 September 2023.[14] Her second collaboration with David Guetta, the song reached top three in Sweden and also became Larsson's first top twenty hit in the United Kingdom since "Ruin My Life" peaked at nine in 2019.[15] "You Love Who You Love" was released as the album's fourth single on 19 January 2024.[16]
