Disclosure Plan New Album And Cancel Wild Life Festival for 2018

The English electronic duo Disclosure, composed of brothers Howard and Guy Lawrence, have announced that a third album is in the works. Following massive success from their freshman album “Settle” and sophomore album “Caracal”, the duo are embarking on their third album this 2018. Through an Instagram post they have stated:

“with a busy recording schedule ahead as we embark on album number 3 we’re going to give the green grass of Shoreham Airport a break throughout 2018 and come back bigger and better in 2019”

As mentioned above, their Wild Life Festival will take a break for this year. Their highly acclaimed festival, curated in partnership with Rudimental, has brought acts such as Ice Cub, Sam Smith, Wu Tang Clan, Annie Mac, and many others. Will this year’s festival hiatus pay off with their new album?

Check out the full announcement from Disclosure down below:

We embarked on a new journey three years ago by launching @wild_life_fest at Shoreham Airport with our close friends, Rudimental. We’d not long finished touring our asses off of debut album, Settle and that inaugural year of the festival in 2015 allowed us to embark on our next chapter with the release of second album, Caracal. Being able to curate your own festival with your mates and invite legends like Nas, Ice Cube and Chaka Khan to play alongside amazing new talent such as Stormzy, Kaytranada and AJ Tracy, stack them up against a host of flawless DJ’s like Annie Mac, Jackmaster and Armand Van Helden and throw parties with Elrow is literally a dream come true. However, with a busy recording schedule ahead as we embark on album number 3 we’re going to give the green grass of Shoreham Airport a break throughout 2018 and come back bigger and better in 2019. Thanks to everyone who attended the festival these last three years and gave us some of the best times we’ve ever had as Disclosure, we’re hugely thankful for the opportunity to share that with you, see you all soon.
