Elton John’s illustrious career spans over 60 years, during which he has captivated audiences worldwide with his mesmerizing performances and timeless music. With over 300 million albums sold, 5 Grammy Awards, and prestigious inductions into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Elton has cemented his status as a legendary icon in the music industry. While he bid farewell to touring after his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, rumors have surfaced suggesting that the music maestro may be gearing up to release a new album.
Exploring Elton’s Secretive Studio Sessions and Musical Passion
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, an insider revealed that Elton was back in the studio working on a “Top Secret” album, potentially slated for release later this year.
“It’s all been very top secret but Elton is back in the studio working on a new album. Time frames are always movable but the fourth quarter has been pencilled in terms of a release date,” the source disclosed. “He adores music and that will never change but the desire to be as busy as he was has waned.”
Despite his decision to step away from touring, Elton remains deeply passionate about music and has chosen to prioritize spending time with his family during this phase of his life.
“Elton will still have a Rocket Hour radio show on Apple Music, and his finger is very much still on the pulse; he just wants to slow down a bit and spend the time with his family but the new album is coming,” the source added.

Acknowledging the pivotal role his fans have played in shaping his career, Elton emphasized their contribution to his success.
“You bought the singles, the CDs, the albums, the cassettes. But more importantly, you bought the tickets to the shows. And you know how much I love to play live. It’s been my lifeblood to play for you guys. You’ve been absolutely magnificent. Thank you,” he graciously acknowledged.
