For Melbourne singer-songwriter Helen Ryder, the journey to her second album Love Over Hate has been one marked by recovery, reflection, and creative rebirth. Speaking with Australian Musician editor Greg Phillips ahead of the album's November 7 release, Ryder opened up about the long gestation behind her long-awaited follow-up to 2015's Someday Love, the challenges that shaped it, and the resilience that ultimately defines it.

Ryder will launch Love Over Hate on November 27 at Melbourne's Wesley Anne, joined by Bruce Haymes, Lachlan Bryan, Stephen Hadley and Tony Floyd.

Helen Ryder's album Love Over Hate is out November 7, 2025.
