In addition, Taylor has signed a deal with Sony Music on their recently re-launched Silvertone imprint. The global deal will be for three albums starting early next year, while her last two albums Wild and Dirty Truth will also move to the new label.
Taylor says: “Over my career, I have worked with different labels but when I got the chance to release the next albums through Sony and Silvertone in particular, I couldn’t say no.
“To be part of such an iconic label that has released albums by some of my guitar heroes like Buddy Guy, John Mayall and even The Stone Roses is such an honour.
“I will be starting work on the new album over the summer and can’t wait to get into the studio and release the album in 2019!”
Managing director of Sony Music commercial group Phil Savill adds: “We are thrilled to welcome Joanne to the Sony Music family and to add her name to the historic Silvertone label.
“Having such an established recording artist and a superb live performer as part of our roster is a real privilege, so we are all very excited for the future.”
Tickets for the UK tour will go on general sale from 10am on Friday (April 27) via The Gig Cartel.
