Embracing one of the most fulfilling chapters of her career yet, CHINCHILLA isn’t making moves with each release – the UK sonic rebel is taking confident strides.
With the release of her new single, ‘IRREVOCABLY CHANGED’, the songwriter and musician adds another vibrant brushstroke to a growing portrait of artistry that is fast becoming an exciting one for 2026.
Her third release for the year, ‘Irrevocably Changed’ is another intimate offering: a slick fusion of electronic-driven pop and striking lyricism, conjuring a soundscape that is inviting and immersive.
The track saw CHINCHILLA link up with ARIA winning songwriter and performer G FLIP, who features on Drums on the track, as well as ARIA winning songwriter Aidan Hogg, co-writing this track together and recording it at the G’s a Los Angeles studio.
With ‘Irrevocably Changed’, the listener hears CHINCHILLA exploring emotional territory with nuance and self-awareness. As she describes,
“You know that feeling when you’re going through the worst thing, and everything just carries on. Like your world has totally stopped, and you’re just watching everyone else live, and it’s equally soul destroying, and comforting. Just the surreal nature of complete heartbreak. Disassociation.”
Of working with G FLIP, the songwriter comments, “I wrote ‘Irrevocably Changed’ with G Flip and Aidan Hogg in their studio in LA. I think we just went back to basics at the end of a writing week – piano and vocal. I had a mic and I’ve been really obsessed with that overtuned distorted vocal sound recently. It reminds me of Bon Iver and just hits me in my soul. And we just had it recording and were improvising, and it was like it bled out.”
Released alongside the single itself, is the official music video for ‘Irrevocably Changed’, filmed in London and directed by CHINCHILLA herself.
Drenched in dark hues, the melancholic energy of the song meets contrast in the video: tears falling from the singer’s face while hedonism continues around her.
‘Irrevocably Changed’ follows on from the release of previous CHINCHILLA tracks ‘VIPER’ and ‘DOG EAT DOG’ – all songs delivered with striking rawness and honesty, building a cinematic and expansive playground of sound for CHINCHILLA to express within. Unapologetic and unwaveringly authentic, the music is an exciting insight into what CHINCHILLA has planned for her highly anticipated new album.

ABOUT CHINCHILLA:
Fierce autonomy and artistic integrity have always been at the forefront of CHINCHILLA. It is this tenacity that catapulted her into sight with her breakout single ‘Little Girl Gone’ in 2023, making her the first female soloist to top Billboard’s Emerging Artist Chart and earning her an RIAA Certified Gold Record.
Since then, she has written original music for both Amazon and SKY, sold out headline shows across the US, UK and Europe, teamed with The Sims to recreate a Simlish version of her track ‘Caps Lock’, supported the likes of Justin Timberlake and G Flip on tour and racked up over 3 million monthly listeners.
Through her honesty, gifted storytelling, incredible vocal capability and close bond with her fanbase, she has become a champion for channeling powerful and challenging emotions – undeniably a force to be reckoned with both in the studio and on stage.
Following the success of her last release, the 2025 EP Ok As I Am, 2026 CHINCHILLA is ready for her next independent chapter, stepping fully into her power without hesitation or apology.
