Avril Lavigne confirms plans to release new album in 2017

Avril Lavigne says she will release an album in 2017, which will be her first since her self-titled fifth record over three years ago.

The singer has suffered from Lyme Disease in the last couple of years, but she took to Instagram on Monday (December 26) to confirm that she is working on new material. The Canadian wrote:

"Hi Everyone!! I wanted to first thank my fans for your patience & support during my time away throughout my battle with Lyme Disease over the past 2 years. It hasn't just been a hard battle but it's also been enlightening and will reflect in my new music, artistry, life, and personally.

"I will always continue to make it a priority to fight and raise awareness about Lyme Disease with the Avril Lavigne foundation. I'm really happy to announce that I am now working on new music and I will be releasing a new album in 2017. I can't wait to open up and share my heart with you! I'm excited for you guys to hear the new songs. It's going to be an amazing 2017!"
