The up-and-coming alt-pop singer previously known as Lamb is now releasing music as Lambb, adding a second “b” after the former Manchester trip-hop duo raised concerns about the shared name. She has announced the EP “There’s Someone In The Yard” and released “OBSESSION,” her first official single under the new spelling.
Up-and-coming alt-pop singer Lamb is rebranding as Lambb, adding a second “b” after the name caused confusion with the former Manchester trip-hop duo, and has announced a new EP, “There’s Someone In The Yard,” alongside its first official single under the new spelling, “OBSESSION.”
The spelling change follows an earlier mix-up after the singer, who had announced a debut EP and tour under the name Lamb, drew attention from fans of the now-defunct British duo. The duo issued statements clarifying that they were not reuniting and said they were trying to contact the singer to address the situation. The original report says the duo also thanked Stereogum for covering the confusion.
Lambb has been introducing the new spelling gradually across platforms. Her previous single, “TALK,” was released under the name Lamb last month; it received a boost when BTS member Jungkook used the track in an Instagram post, according to Stereogum. “OBSESSION” is described by the outlet as a dark electronic-pop track and is accompanied by a music video.
The EP, “There’s Someone In The Yard,” is scheduled for release on November 20 via Warner. The report does not provide additional details about its track list, the singer’s tour, or whether that tour will be promoted under the Lambb name.
A Name Change With Career Stakes
The change addresses a practical problem for a developing artist: listeners searching for Lamb could encounter the established history of a separate act with the same name. The duo’s public clarification that it was not reuniting shows how the overlap could create confusion beyond online searches, including for fans trying to understand announcements about new music and touring.
For the singer, the added letter gives her a distinct spelling to use as she promotes new work. It also arrives at a moment when her earlier song “TALK” had gained attention through Jungkook’s Instagram post, making consistency across platforms and releases relevant to how listeners find her catalog. The source does not quantify the song’s reach or report any commercial impact from the name change.
The development is also a reminder that an artist’s public identity can affect how a release is understood. Here, Lambb’s EP announcement and “OBSESSION” introduce the updated name at the same time as new music, while the earlier release remains credited to Lamb in the report. How quickly platforms, coverage and listeners adopt the new spelling is not yet established.

How The Lamb Name Confusion Began
The naming issue came into view earlier in the year when the singer announced a debut EP and tour as Lamb. Fans of the Manchester trip-hop duo with that name questioned whether the announcement signaled a reunion. The duo’s statements clarified that it was not returning as a group and described an effort to get in touch with the singer to resolve the overlap.
The report frames Lambb’s adjustment as a gradual rollout rather than a change made all at once: “TALK” appeared under the earlier spelling last month, while the new spelling has been appearing on various platforms since then. Now the EP announcement and “OBSESSION” give the artist a new release officially tied to Lambb. The source identifies Warner as the EP’s label but does not detail the process behind the rebrand or any formal agreement between the parties.
“The duo said it was attempting to get in touch with the singer to resolve the issue.”

Details Of The Rebrand Remain Sparse
The report does not say whether the singer and the duo reached an agreement, whether the contact attempt led to the spelling change, or whether the change was made for legal reasons. It reports the sequence of events and describes the singer as gradually adopting Lambb, but does not establish a formal link between the duo’s complaint and the rebrand beyond that timing.
Other details are also unconfirmed in the source: the EP’s complete track list, the status or name of the previously announced tour, and how streaming services will handle the singer’s earlier Lamb releases. The report describes “OBSESSION” as her first official song as Lambb, but gives no further information about its production, chart performance or reception.
The EP Arrives November 20
The next dated release milestone is November 20, when “There’s Someone In The Yard” is scheduled to arrive via Warner. The report does not specify whether additional singles, tour dates or promotional appearances will be announced before then.
Listeners can expect the singer’s new release to carry the Lambb spelling, while “TALK” remains associated with Lamb in the account of its release. Further information about the EP and the artist’s live plans may clarify how the rebrand will be applied across her catalog and upcoming performances.
