Olly Alexander elaborated on his upcoming album, Polari, in a statement released on the tour announcement post. Parts of the statement are quoted below,

"I probably first heard of the word Polari about fifteen years ago when I was a newly out homosexual. I knew it was some kind of 'lost gay language' but I didn't take too much interest in gay history back then, looking to the past felt difficult..."

Olly Alexander added,

"Ten years later, I got to play with Ritchie in "It's A Sin" and get to grapple with my gay identity in a way that totally transformed my life. I loved learning about queer history so much, it gave me a new way to understand myself..."

Towards the end of the statement, Olly Alexander elaborated on the relation between Polari the language and his album, also titled Polari:

"Polari became my guiding light, a place where I could travel through time and create music that took reference from the past and remix it into the future. I've always written songs about love, but I found myself with a new perspective beyond my own usual fears and insecurities."

Olly Alexander continued:

"Polari came to encapsulate so many things to me, a creative practice, an artistic refuge - it was a voyage that led me to many surprises - much like the language itself . This album is a documentation of that journey and a celebration of being alive. Welcome to Polari"

Polari, the album will be released on February 7, 2025, via Polydor Records. It consists of 13 tracks, including the title track, and was produced by Danny L Harle.
