He's from A&R sony music
Wow, this is so annoying, seriously. How many times has this already been said? What does coming together mean? Recording like 50 songs again and then changing the whole concept?
I wish Leona was promoted better throughout her career. She would be at the top now. I know that many of you will say that I sound pessimistic but honestly I think that Glassheart will sell less than Echo. And please, NOTTTT because of Leona and the music, simply because of her management, the fact that Leona isn't known anymore.
As many of you have suggested, I think the schedule will be:
- June: single
- October/November: single
- November: album
The album definitely won't get a summer release. it doesn't make any sense because sales are low at that time.
Love the positive attitude. Although we've been saying this at the beginning of every new forum, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this is indeed the one ! Good things will happen within the next several weeks.

Promising tweet from that A&R person. Considering its not going to be released until the 3rd quarter of the year it seems pretty reasonable to be at the 'coming together' stage. Just because the album isn't finished doesn't necessarily mean they haven't found the surefire hit that they need for the first single!
Also worth noting that according to his Linkedin he only joined Sony in January of this year. I actually think that its a good thing if Leona has a completely new A&R team - and she probably does in the U.S as a result of J folding into RCA - her previous team clearly could have been better at choosing the right material. Obviously Clive Davis still has a roll but hopefully some younger, more current execs will get a bigger input.
Indeed I think Sony/SyCo in the UK have seen big changes at the top since Echo so hopefully they will all have some fresh ideas.
Whether the material will sustain those sales remains to be seen.
Welcome to the LLAT. We are all excited to hear Glassheart, albeit later than originally planned - I also think this 3rd album will be a stunner.
Welcome to the forum!!!
In other news, cannot believe its been 4 years since Spirit went to number 1 in America :eek:
And, yes that tweet about the album "coming together" is exciting, I've told you, I have a goooood feeling about this record, all it needs is hype and good promotion, Leona's voice and music does the rest!
Love this cover so much better!!
I like the color, it's better than the original, but I don't her skin and lips

Bit more about him here,

but
is there any possibility for an album title change as well?
That cover is hideous. I'll say it again, just because some people have photoshop does not mean that they should use it. She doesn't even look real anymore.
