Speaking of the track, Welch revealed: "Heaven is Here was the first song I wrote in lockdown after an extended period of not being able to get to the studio. I wanted to make something monstrous. And this clamour of joy, fury and grief was the first thing that came out…"
She added: "With dance studios also shut it was my dream to one day create choreography with it. So it’s one of the first pieces of music I have made specifically with contemporary dance in mind."
Dance Fever follows 2009's Lungs, 2011's Ceremonials, 2015's How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful and 2018's High As Hope.
