Following the release of his seventh studio album A Modern Day Distraction last year, Jake Bugg is back with a very special deluxe repack of the celebrated record. Following the release of the first single Never Said Goodbye Jake releases Oblivious previously unreleased and written during the spring 0f 2025 it’s an up tempo celebratory slice of British guitar pop which resonates perfectly for the sound of our post Oasis summer. British guitar music has never sounded so good. Jake headlined packed out UK dates across the summer and will be doing instores to support the album, whilst also headlining the RadioX event on Oct 3rd 13 years and seven albums into his career, A Modern Day Distraction cements Jake as one of the UK’s most established and enduring songwriters in the UK. Recorded at Metrophonic Studios in London and produced by Mark Taylor and Paul Mascall, the very special repack features four brand new tracks and will be released on vinyl, CD and digitally. An album that saw Jake return to his roots, A Modern Day Distraction shines a light on the injustice Jake seen dealt to the family and friends he grew up with. Fiery and engaged, the record was born out of a frustration of societal inequality. Still only 31 years old and with a discography well beyond his years in his armoury, Jake is just as relevant as ever. Still filling venues the world over, the best is yet to come.
