Berlin-based artist Horsegiirl has officially announced her debut studio album titled ‘Nature Is Healing’, set for release on June 5, 2026, through RCA Records. The announcement arrives alongside the release of the new single ‘Earth Is Turning’, which serves as a preview of the album’s thematic and sonic direction. The artist described the project as a follow-up to her 2025 EP ‘V.I.P.’ – Very Important Pony’, marking her first full-length body of work.
The single ‘Earth Is Turning’ features a hypnotic, club-ready beat layered with psychedelic and trance-y instrumentation. Horsegiirl chants the lyrics “The Earth is turning/turning all the time/… And love is winning/winning every time” over the track, reinforcing a message of resilience and continuity. In a press statement, she emphasized that the song reflects “the cyclical resilience of nature against human actions,” adding, “Even if things seem like they’re ending, the Earth will keep on turning.”
In discussing the album’s broader intent, Horsegiirl said she aims to remind listeners that humans are not separate from nature but deeply embedded within it. “I want to remind human beings that they are part of nature… You are not looking at nature from the outside, but you are right in it,” she stated. This philosophy emerged after a period of burnout from the music industry’s demands, which led her to travel to Ecuador in late 2025 to participate in an ayahuasca ceremony. She described the experience as transformative, leading to a realization that her purpose is to guide others toward greater awareness of their impact on the planet.
The artist elaborated on the album’s guiding principles in a shared quote: “Her guidance is simple: follow the body, trust the beating pulse. Surrender to the cycles that guide animals and humans alike. So rest now. Touch the ground. Fall into the sound. Feel your ego slip. Let (the) Earth finish the sentence you started. Nature is healing. And so are you.” This message frames ‘Nature Is Healing’ not just as a musical release but as an invitation to reconnect with instinct, rhythm, and belonging.
Sonically, the album blends diverse electronic genres, including balearic grooves, electroclash, new-age downtempo, and hard-hitting gabber beats. Horsegiirl described her vision as dance music designed for “true connection rather than empty escapism,” with tracks rooted in cutting-edge electronics, euphoric house, and intense club rhythms. To deepen the theme of interconnectedness, she incorporated field recordings of birds, insects, mammals, and reptiles throughout the album, alongside global percussion, accordions, and pan flutes.
Collaborators on the project include notable producers and artists such as Nomak (known for work with Charli XCX), Casey MQ (who has worked with Oklou), Margo XS (associated with Kim Petras and Zara Larsson), Elof Loelv (of Icona Pop), FREE Jimi (Dorian Electra), Suena (Apache 207), and A.G. Cook. Horsegiirl also worked closely with her longtime collaborator Luvhunter on the record.
The album expands Horsegiirl’s ongoing conceptual framework called ONeEARTH, which she describes as an evolving philosophy centered on returning to instinct, shared rhythm, and radical belonging. ‘Earth Is Turning’ follows earlier singles ‘An Apple A Day’ and ‘Only The Best’ in introducing listeners to the album’s world.
Horsegiirl has been active on the live circuit in 2026, having performed at Coachella earlier in April. During her set, she made a guest appearance during Wet Leg’s performance and joined PinkPantheress on stage. She is scheduled to perform at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Sunderland next month and will later open for Robyn at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California. A headline tour of her own is anticipated to follow later in 2026.
In a prior interview with NME in late 2024, Horsegiirl reflected on her ‘V.I.P.’ EP, calling it a “travel EP” that explored her jetset lifestyle, which she noted “sounds way more glamorous than it really is.” She described the upcoming album as a “new chapter,” explaining, “I haven’t really released a body of work that is as diverse in its approach to different styles of electronic music.” She added that her reduced output in recent years stems from success limiting time for creative passion: “I make less music than I would like to, and I think that’s the biggest change. The more successful you become, I guess the less time you really have for the thing that you love the most.”
The announcement of ‘Nature Is Healing’ positions Horsegiirl as an artist using electronic music not only for entertainment but as a medium for ecological and spiritual reflection. With its June 5 release date confirmed, the album is expected to expand her influence beyond the club scene into broader conversations about art, environment, and human connection.
