Goodbye (If You Call That Gone) is the debut studio album by Australian singer-songwriter May-a. The album was announced alongside its third single "Claws" on 28 November 2025 and was released on 20 February 2026. [3]

Contents

Upon announcement May-a said: "I really didn't want this album to get tied down into any specific sound or genre. I think I've kind of avoided that for my whole musical career thus far, because I don't really know where I want to go." [3]

Critical reception

Lauren McNamara from Rolling Stone Australia said, "[The] long-awaited debut, Goodbye (If You Call That Gone), doesn't arrive with a neat bow. Instead, it shape shifts. Pop dissolves into rock, rage softens into sweetness, and sadness claws its way out from under anger. It's messy, cathartic, and thrillingly alive." [5]
