Cover Notes: 'Ribbon Around The Bomb' is the fourth studio album from Blossoms, released in 2022. The album is produced by their consistent and renowned collaborators James Skelly and Rich Turvey and revolves around a central character 'The Writer'. Standout tracks on the record include 'Ode To NYC', described by Tom as 'a love letter to my favourite city, as well as my wife'. The Writer which deals with the fear of and frustration associated with writers block and 'Everything About You', one of the album's only love songs, which Tom says is 'as honest as they come'. 'Visions' meanwhile contains one of the album's key lyrics 'Was I complete at 23', as Tom explains. 'At 23 I had just had a number 1 album and begun my relationship with my now wife Katie. Reflecting on what I'd achieved at such a young age left me wondering, what now?'
