Although they've been working (occasionally together) on their own projects, Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt have largely been missing as Everything but the Girl for the past two-plus decades. But that's all about to change: the husband-wife sophisti-pop duo have recorded their first new album in 24 years.

The yet-untitled follow-up to 1999's Temperamental is set to arrive in spring 2023.

Everything but the Girl shared the news via social media today, revealing that they had made a new album and that we would get to hear it in just a few months' time. "We thought you'd like to know that we have made a new Everything But the Girl album," they wrote. "It'll be out next spring. Love, Ben and Tracey x."

In 2012, the pair launched a reissue campaign, which has most recently led them to treat Amplified Heart to its first-ever vinyl release for its 25th anniversary in 2019 and reissue their 1984 debut Eden last year.
