Last month Goulding confirmed that the release of ‘Higher Than Heaven’ was pushed back for a second time, citing “delays in sourcing” the materials for the physical records.

In October 2022, Goulding announced her fifth studio album with the release of single ‘Let It Die’. That followed on from the release of ‘Easy Lover’ and Goulding’s collaborative single with Alok and Sigala, ‘All By Myself’.

The record was initially due to arrive on February 3, 2023 and was the follow up to the singer-songwriter’s 2020 album ‘Brightest Blue’. But Goulding delayed the release in January 2023, writing on Twitter: “To my incredible fans – I’m sorry to announce that we’re delaying the release of Higher Than Heaven to March 24.”

Addressing the second delay, Goulding wrote on social media: “Here we go again. Here are all the different versions of Higher Than Heaven available to order now from my official store (link in bio).”

“As you know, making these products as green as possible is incredibly important to me so we’ve worked really hard to stick to that promise,” she continued. “As a result & due to delays in sourcing these products, we have to push back the release ever so slightly to April 7 just so we can get these beautiful products to you as soon as humanly possible. Thank you ever so much for your patience and I love you all.”
