Demi Lovato‘s return to pop music now has a start date — and it’s coming fast.

After weeks of teasing that she’d be making a comeback in mainstream music with a splashy EDM-infused new single called “Fast,” the superstar has announced that the track will arrive Friday (Aug. 1). The news comes via an Instagram post on Monday (July 28), with Lovato sharing photos from what appears to be a music video shoot and writing, “me when i serve my favorite dish… FAST OUT FRIDAY 8.1.”

On their Story, the hitmaker wrote, “a new era has arrived” and added, “i know i shouldn’t have kept you waiting … but i’m here now.”

Lovato has been getting fans hyped for “Fast” for weeks, sharing snippets of the summery track on social media. Over a punchy electronic beat, the Camp Rock star sings softly on the song, “I wanna go fast/ I wanna go hard/ I wanna go anywhere, anywhere you are.”

The song is expected to be just the first piece in Lovato’s pop-music homecoming after they previously disavowed the genre in favor of rock on 2022’s Holy Fvck. Lovato later followed that album up with Revamped, an LP of her past pop hits reimagined as punk bangers.

This year, however, the singer has promised fans a return to form, as teased in a recent Rolling Stone exclusive. The publication reported that Lovato has a “celebratory dance-pop” full-length in the works with producer Zhone, who revealed, “This album is about letting inhibitions go, and we had so much fun making this music!”
