A classic slice of Erasure's signature sound, Wings Of Love showcases the emotional core of the new album, with Bell reflecting on themes of love, loneliness and gratitude. The track offers fans an early taste of what to expect from Radio!! Radio!!, an album that combines the duo's celebrated electronic sound with deeply personal songwriting.
Speaking about the record, Clarke explained that many of the songs emerged naturally from their experiences, saying, "Some of the songs are quite reflective of stuff that's been going on in my life, but not all of them. We didn't have to think about it or talk about it, it just happened that way."

The album also reflects the close bond between Bell and Clarke, forged through decades of collaboration. Bell describes their relationship as a "soul connection", adding that the trust built over years of writing together creates a unique creative space. Following a difficult period marked by personal loss, the pair found themselves writing songs centred on healing, hope and friendship.
To support the release, Erasure will embark on a major arena tour beginning in Cardiff on 25 April 2027.
The run includes a stop at Dublin's 3Arena on 3 May, with Ladytron joining as special guests on all UK and Irish dates.

In a notable change for longtime fans, Clarke will oversee the production as Musical Director but will not perform on stage during the tour. Having recently relocated to California, he explained that extensive travel had become increasingly challenging, leading to the decision to step back from touring while remaining closely involved in the show's creative direction.
Bell praised the arrangement, saying the partnership remains as strong as ever.
Radio!! Radio!! will be released on vinyl, CD and digital formats on 12 March 2027.
