LONDON, United Kingdom — Elton John said he will release a new studio album in early April, a year-and-a-half after winding down his glittering live career with a global farewell tour.
John, 77, described "Who Believes in Angels?" — a collaboration with US singer Brandi Carlile and co-written by John's long-time songwriting partner Bernie Taupin — as "one of the toughest I've ever made."

The album was written and recorded from scratch in 20 days in October 2023 at the Sunset Sound recording studio in Los Angeles shortly after the end of the farewell tour.
"It has given me a place where I know I can move forward. 'Who Believes In Angels?' feels like going into another era and I'm pushing the door open to come into the future," John said in an Instagram post.
