About Towa Bird
Towa Bird is a UK‑born, LA‑based singer, songwriter, and guitarist whose sharp riffs, fearless confidence, and queer‑forward perspective have earned her a rapidly growing global fanbase. Her 2024 debut album American Hero put her firmly on the alt‑rock map, driven by fan‑favorite tracks like “Drain Me!,” “B.I.L.L.S.,” and “Ew.” [melodicmag.com]
After a year of touring and rising buzz, Towa Bird has returned with “Gentleman,” signaling a more self‑assured, stylish evolution of her sound and identity. [rollingstone.com]
About the Song: “Gentleman”
Released in February 2026, “Gentleman” is the lead single and title track from Towa Bird’s upcoming sophomore album Gentleman, the official follow‑up to American Hero. [music.apple.com], [melodicmag.com]
Built on crunchy guitar tones and undeniable attitude, the track reclaims the word “gentleman” through a modern, queer lens — blending masculine and feminine energy with swagger, charm, and desire. The song’s confident hooks and sultry tension have quickly made it one of Bird’s most talked‑about releases yet. [rollingstone.com], [atwoodmagazine.com]
The accompanying music video, set in a luxe bar‑room atmosphere, leans into that same seductive confidence and rock‑and‑roll attitude. [melodicmag.com]
What’s Next
“Gentleman” is the first taste of Towa Bird’s second album of the same name, due out May 15, 2026 via Interscope Records. The project promises a sharper, more refined take on the raw energy that made American Hero stand out — like going from a pub to a cocktail bar. [rollingstone.com], [readdork.com]

Catch “Gentleman” every weekday at 12PM EST in The Drop on 95X.
