Naima Bock has today announced her new single, ‘Rocks’, set to be released via new labels Breakfast Records / Fire Talk. The track marks her first studio release since her standalone single ‘Rolling’ in June 2025 and her previous album, Below A Massive Dark Land in 2024 which garnered extensive praise.

Over the past year, Naima has been extensively debuting new material across recent tours with Neil Young, Dinosaur Jr. and Jake Xerxes Fussell. From April 2027, Naima will embark on her own headline tour of the UK and EU. Full dates and tickets below.

Speaking about the track, Naima Bock says:

“‘Rocks’ is a very personal song, the story of which I’ll leave to the listener to interpret. It came to me on a rainy autumn night as my flight was ascending to somewhere less cold. I’d been listening to Palace Music non-stop for a month. Writing it saved me from my chronic oscillation between to-be home and not-to-be home, that is when I decided I would do both.”

The track was produced by Jack Ogborne (Bingo Fury, The Cindys), and recorded at St Mark’s Church in north London, with additional arrangements by Oliver Hamilton (caroline, Shovel Dance Collective) and Naima herself.

Through the years, Naima has enjoyed notable support from Lauren Laverne, Marc Riley, Gideon Coe on 6Music. Giant Palm and Below were also mainstays on KEXP, with Naima performing two sessions in 2023 and 2024, and she more recently played at the 6Music Festival in early 2026.
