Ellie Goulding delays Higher Than Heaven album and teases new single "Like A Saviour"

Higher Than Heaven was originally due to arrive on 3 February, but in a new Instagram post yesterday (9 January), Ellie Goulding announced that it's been delayed until 24 March.

Goulding wrote, "To my incredible fans- I’m sorry to announce that we’re delaying the release of Higher Than Heaven to March 24. I know you’ve all been so patient with me but we’ve had some exciting opportunities appear behind the scenes which I cannot wait to share with you in due course. In the meantime as a thank you for your patience, Im excited to confirm that my new single is called "Like A Saviour". It’s coming soon, we’ve shot the video and it’s one of my favourite videos I’ve ever done. And as a small thank you for bearing with me I wanted to give you a first look at it. We also shot something really exciting this past weekend that’ll come around the album’s release. More on that very soon…"
