Compassion is the upcoming sixth album by British indie pop band The Hoosiers. Following 2023's Confidence, it is due to be released on 15 May 2026 by Crab Race.
Throughout 2023, whilst promoting Confidence, it was reported that the duo had begun working on a sixth album. In March 2025, drummer Alan Sharland confirmed this work was ongoing, with guitarist Irwin Sparkes confirming the release would be called Compassion in a July 2025 interview.
On October 30, 2025, The Hoosiers released the single 'Sleeping With The Light On.' This was followed on December 3, 2025 by 'Man From The Magazine,' 'Lonely Together' on January 29, 2026 and 'Automatic Glow' on March 3, 2026. All four of these singles have had accompanying music videos, based on artwork by and featuring animation by MediaNerd Ltd.
Alongside the release of 'Lonely Together,' the duo announced that the album, Compassion, would be released May 15, 2026. In promotion, the pair will embark on a 13-stop acoustic record shop tour in May 2026 and the 10-date Compassion Tour in October 2026.
