Wisp announces debut album “If Not Winter” & Massive 2025 World Tour
Written by Lorenzo dela Cruz | June 24, 2025
Rising shoegaze star Wisp has officially announced her long-anticipated debut album, If Not, Winter, arriving August 1 via Interscope Records. The announcement arrives alongside news of her most ambitious endeavor yet — a sprawling 2025 tour that includes her first headlining run and support slots for System Of A Down, Korn, Avenged Sevenfold, and Deftones in stadiums across North America.
Leading up to the occasion, Wisp has released three new singles from the album — “Sword,” “Save Me Now,” and “Get Back to Me.”
In a recent press release, Wisp descrives If Not Winter as a hero’s mission. “At its core, it’s a quest, throughout which [Wisp] picks up magic talismans or holy grails from villages she can now call home,” the description reads. “Ethereal yet extremely close to the heart, it’s a triumph of brave exploration and experimental cartography.”

The tour begins August 22 in Washington, DC and travels across North America before heading to Europe and the UK in late October. Along the way, Wisp will play iconic venues like Webster Hall, The Fonda Theatre, and The Regency Ballroom, while also performing massive stadium sets in support of legendary acts.
This marks a defining moment in Wisp’s rapid rise from viral discovery to one of the most anticipated names in modern shoegaze.
