The Space Between is the sixth studio album by Illy. The album was released on 15 January 2021.[8]

The album was recorded over three years, between his home town of Melbourne and international cities including New York, Los Angeles and Berlin, with Illy declaring the album "his most personal to date". Illy said "The Space Between is about change; how much there is from one point to the next and how those trips – not the destinations – define us." He added "My music has always been about real life, and since last time we spoke, mine happened between albums – relationships, parties, therapy, triumphs, breakdowns, celebrations, mourning; all of it.. I learnt to keep it moving, but also to stop and appreciate where you're at, because the one constant is change. I'm thankful for all of it. It all made this album."[8][9]

The album was completed in March 2020 and was originally set for release in May 2020, but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The album's release date was announced for January 2021 in October 2020.[10][11]
