IndieLondon: Ellie Goulding announces new album, Halcyon - Your ...

ELLIE Goulding has announced details of her eagerly awaited new album Halcyon, which will be released on October 8th on Polydor Records.

It will be preceded by lead single Anything Could Happen on September 30, 2012.

Halcyon is the follow-up to Ellie Goulding?s hugely successful debut album Lights which was released in 2010 and has gone on to sell one and a half million copies and generate five million single sales worldwide.

Ellie says of the LP: ?This album for me is a journey from dark into light from confusion to understanding. I didn?t set out to write a break-up record but I think it became one.?

The Hereford-born singer songwriter first came to prominence when she topped the BBC Sound of 2010 Poll and was simultaneously awarded the Brits Critics Choice Award.

She is the only artist other than Adele to have received both accolades.

All the tracks on Halcyon were written and co-produced by Ellie Goulding and the majority were recorded in a converted barn in Ellie Goulding?s hometown in the Hay Valley with producer Jim Elliot (Kylie/Ladyhawke).

Fans got a taste of the new album earlier this month when Ellie Goulding posted a free download of new track Hanging On?featuring Tinie Tempah. The volume of fans rushing to hear the track caused Soundcloud to crash.

Hanging On was the number one most blogged and played track on Hypemachine that week and has had over one million total plays/views on Youtube and Soundcloud already. You can view the video below?
