Adele is officially back, and she’s bringing along a musical treat with her!
British singer Adele has teased her first new music since her 2015 Grammy Award winning album ‘25’, has just released a teaser video Tuesday on social media for her upcoming song “Easy On Me,” set to come out Oct. 15.
Known for chart-toppings ballads such as “Hello” and “Someone Like You,” Adele posted the black and white video on her Instagram page on Tuesday, October 5, showing a black-and-white video, Adele pops a tape into a car cassette player, glancing in the rearview mirror and turning up the volume before soft piano notes start playing in the background. She drives down the road while sheets of music flying out of the backseat of the truck. She also tweeted that ‘Easy On Me’ will be released on Friday, 15 October, with her fourth album expected to follow. The teaser came days after billboards with the number “30” started popping up in cities around the world, sparking rumors among fans that the singer will release an album this year. Could this be the first single to a highly anticipated album entitled ’30’? Adele’s previous albums have all had numbers as titles, referencing her age, starting with debut album “19” in 2008, followed by 2011’s “21” and 2015’s “25.”
On Monday, Adele’s website layout and social media profile pictures featured updated images that matched the navy-blue color scheme of the “30” billboards, leading to more speculation before Tuesday’s song announcement. Adele celebrated the 10th anniversary of her sophomore album ‘21’, now the best-selling album of the 21st century, earlier this year. “Well, I never! Happy 10 years old friend!” Adele wrote in the Instagram caption. “It’s crazy how little I remember of what it was like and how I felt a decade ago. But Thank You from the bottom of my heart for letting us into your lives and letting me be a soundtrack to some of it.”
