Avril Lavigne Teases New Album

Jan 23, 2018 | 5:30 AM

Avril Lavigne hopped on social media this weekend to assure fans new music is on the way. In the process, the 33-year-old offered a bit of a behind the scenes glimpse at her creative process this time around.

“Personal, dear, intimate, dramatic, raw, powerful, strong and unexpected,” she wrote on Twitter. “This record is a true emotional journey.”

One fan shared a screen-grab of interactions with singer. In a conversation they had via direct message, Avril promised the album was nearing the final stages. “I started mixing my record and we are wrapping it up. I am so relieved,” she wrote. She explained it has been a process to find the “right producers for the project,” but she hoped to be done with everything by February.

“I’ve never worked sooo hard on an album. It’s next level. Will be worth it. It’s about as real as it gets,” she added.

In August, Avril tweeted that new music would “be here before you know” and thanked fans for their patience, but she has yet to announce a release date. Her last album, Avril Lavigne, came out back in 2013.
