Adele confirms new album ‘25’ and 2015 world tour

Adele’s return has been pretty much set in stone for the past few months, but her forthcoming third full-length ’25’ is now scheduled for an official 2014 release.

The follow-up to 2011 LP ’21’ is set to be a more stripped-down affair. She’s previously revealed intentions to write, produce and master the entire record, although Paul Epworth is set to be involved in the project.

World Music Awards’ official account yesterday tweeted: “#Adele confirms 2015 Tour After The Release Of Her New Album ’25!’.

The new album is due out via XL Recordings later this year.
