Winona Oak Announces New Album “Bloom”, Shares New Song “Breaking Point”
Swedish singer-songwriter Winona Oak has announced her upcoming sophomore album “Bloom” will be released on September 25, 2026 via Nettwerk Music Group.
It is her first album in four years, following the 2022 debut album “Island of the Sun”.
On the album, she builds a soundscape that feels cinematic yet organic, working with collaborators Anton Engdahl, frogi, Martin Stilling, Teodor Runsiö, Frans Torell, and Tudor Davies.
Winona Oak said of the album, “Its world is more organic. This is what I've wanted to do for a long time.”
She added, “Like a flower emerging after a long winter blooming isn't instant - it's the result of surviving the darker seasons. This album reflects that transformation, the idea that even after pain, life still finds ways to grow. It's a gentle but powerful reminder that healing isn't about forgetting the past but about allowing yourself to open again to the light.”- From the album, she released a new song “Breaking Point” on April 17, 2026.
The song is the forth single off of the album, following “Stay the night”, “Horses”, and “Do You Hate Me Now”.
The track turns its gaze toward the quiet ache of heartbreak, capturing the moment when clarity hurts, when you realize that some wounds can't be undone and some truths can't be unseen.
It was written by Winona Oak, Tudor Davies, and Sandro Cavazza. Produced by Martin Stilling and TUDOR.
Winona Oak said of the song, “This song is about that moment when the illusion cracks and you can't unsee the truth anymore. Choosing honesty over comfort - even when it changes everything.” -
She continued, “I wrote it from a place of realizing that sometimes we hold onto a version of someone that isn't real, or a version of a relationship that only works because we're overlooking what's happening. Once that clarity hits, you can't unsee it, no matter how much you might want to go back.”
She added, “It's about recognizing the point where staying starts to cost you more than leaving. It captures that quiet but defining shift from holding on to finally let
