Adele teases her first single in six years, reveals release date

It's been a while. British singer Adele surprised fans on Tuesday as she shared a teaser of her new music. Adele took to social media to share a video clip of her latest song 'Easy On Me'. 

This is her first single in 6 years. Her last album '25' had won a Grammy. Known for chart-topping ballads such as 'Hello' and 'Someone Like You', Adele posted the black and white video on her Twitter and Instagram pages on Tuesday, with the caption 'Easy On Me - October 15'.

The video shows the singer in a car, putting a tape into a cassette player, checking the rearview mirror, increasing the volume and then driving off in a vehicle carrying packed up belongings. Soft piano music plays in the background as sheets of music fly out of the window.

Adele's last album '25' came out in November 2015. It topped charts around the world and scooped the coveted album of the year prize at the Grammy Awards.

Over the last few days, her fans have speculated online that the 33-year-old was set to release new music as the number '30' was mysteriously beamed onto buildings around the world. Pics: Adele sparks album rumours amid massive '30' signs popping up all over the world
