Adele fans will have to wait until at least next year for a new album, according to a statement from her label tucked in a new financial report.
The most definitive statement so far about Adele’s plans is in the latest annual financial report by Adele’s label, XL Recordings, which was filed on Thursday with regulators in Britain, where the company is based. Buried alongside the news that XL — whose other acts include Vampire Weekend and the xx — made $15 million in net profit on almost $61 million in revenue in 2013, was the following sentence:
“There will not be a further new release by Adele during 2014 and consequently there will be a fall in XL’s turnover and profits.”
