Adele’s fans will finally get to hear a new album from the singer—it’s been five years since the release of her last album 25.

According to social media video footage from a wedding Adele officiated over the weekend, her next album will be coming in September.

Rumors about a new album have been circulating for months now and her music manager, Jonathan Dickins, told Music Week last month that a follow-up to 25 would be coming this year. Adele also hinted at the album back in May in a social media post from her 31st birthday.

“This is 31…thank f—ing god,” she wrote. “30 tried me so hard but I’m owning it and trying my hardest to lean into it all… For the first time in a decade I’m ready to feel the world around me and look up for once… ’30’ will be a drum n bass record to spite you. Chin up, eh.”

Adele is known for taking her time with her music; since her debut album 21 in 2011 she has released only one other album and one stand-alone single “Skyfall.”
