The Chemical Brothers’ Tom Rowlands and Aurora launch TOMORA project

The Chemical Brothers‘ Tom Rowlands has teamed up with Norwegian singer-songwriter Aurora to launch a new musical project, TOMORA, and a debut single, Ring the Alarm.

The track marks the first public confirmation of the project, following speculation about TOMORA’s appearance on several 2026 festival lineups, including Coachella, NOS Alive, Colours of Ostrava, Øyafestivalen, and Down The Rabbit Hole.

“We wanted TOMORA to be a band, not two individuals. It’s our musical feeling come to life,” the pair said of the project.

Ring The Alarm, which is out now on Fontana, is described as a “a glorious, mechanised sound of alien contact, alive with chaos, mischief and release. […] Oscillations by Silver Apples rewired for the 21st century to make the kind of electronic record that feels cosmically tuned to blow speaker stacks the world over.”

It’s backed by an official video, directed by Adam Smith, which can be viewed below.

Aurora previously appeared on The Chemical Brothers’ 2019 album No Geography, which won a Grammy Award, while Rowlands contributed production to her 2024 album What Happened to the Heart?.
