Tropidelic just released its 10th studio album – First Light – which includes 12 fresh tracks with appearances from heavy-hitters like Collie Buddz, The Movement, Fortunate Youth, Little Stranger, and more. The album continues the band’s evolution into a more atmospheric sound while blending the reggae-rock, hip-hop, and brass-driven energy that has defined its music and live performances over the years.
The album lands after a year of single releases and growing anticipation, led by the powerful first single “Out There” (released in May of 2025), which has garnered millions of streams while spreading its beautiful message. Each song explores a new avenue of Tropidelic’s sound, pushing its creative limits and carving a path into new sonic territory. And with the addition of features from so many familiar names, First Light creates a new listening experience that is only enhanced by the power of Tropidelic’s live performance.
While the album shows the evolution of Tropidelic’s musical style, the common themes of positivity, resilience, and determination remain strong. Tropidelic continues to do what it does best: inspire and uplift both longtime fans and new listeners alike. The entirety of First Light is a reminder to keep your head up, have no fear, and know that if you keep going, you’ll find what you’re looking for – out there.
There will be plenty of opportunities to catch First Light performed live in 2026 and beyond, including appearances at major festivals (like Tropidelic’s Everwild Music and Arts Festival), and venues all over the country. You can find all of their tour dates, music, and merch at Tropidelic.com.
First Light is out now wherever you stream music. Give it a spin!
