It has also been confirmed that Rita three recent singles Your Song, Lonely Together (with Avicii) and Anywhere will feature on her second studio album, due for release in the new year. Her debut album ORA was released way back in September 2012.

The new collection, which is currently untitled, will feature songs Rita has worked on alongside production gods Stargate and songwriter of the moment Julia Michaels. Your Song was of course written by Ed Sheeran for Rita, and her new single Anywhere was penned by Andrew Watt, writer of Kygo & Selena Gomez's It Ain't Me and Camila Cabello's Havana.

Rita is the woman of the moment it seems. In additional having three Top 20 singles this year, she will also host and perform at the MTV Europe Music Awards in London on November 12.
