ADÉLA channels 2014–2015 pop sounds

ADÉLA said on July 9 that her debut album will lean into the pop music she grew up on, telling followers the project draws from the 2014–2015 sound she loved when she was 12. The announcement appeared in a social-media post that also included promotional images and a pre-save link, according to the post cited in the source briefing. Capitol Records has already been positioning the Slovak-born singer’s next release as her debut album era, and her official website is now carrying an extensive 2026 tour schedule. ### What exactly did ADÉLA say about the album’s sound? July 9 was the date attached to the announcement that ADÉLA’s debut album would channel 2010s pop, with a specific focus on 2014–2015 sounds, according to the source briefing built from the social post. The post said she cited the music she loved at age 12 and pointed followers toward a pre-save page for the record. The wording matters because it places the album in a defined pop window rather than a broad “nostalgia” frame. (freshmusicfreaks.com) In the briefing, ADÉLA was described as naming mid-decade production styles and favorite tracks that shaped her early musical taste. ### How does that fit with the music she has released so far? Capitol Records described “KGB” two months ago as the first official preview of ADÉLA’s forthcoming debut album. The label-backed release was co-produced by Blake Slatkin, Dylan Brady of 100 gecs and The Dare, according to a press-release pickup published by Fresh Music Freaks. ADÉLA’s recent catalog has already moved across several pop substyles. Rate Your Music’s artist page lists 2024 and 2025 singles including “Homewrecked,” “Superscar,” “Machine Girl,” “DeathByDevotion” and “SexOnTheBeat,” followed by 2026 releases including “KGB” and “Red Bottoms.” That release pattern suggests the July 9 post was less a first album reveal than a more specific statement about the sonic direction of a project already in motion.

The same site asks fans to register for updates from both ADÉLA and Capitol Records, tying the current rollout to a major-label campaign. Los Angeles also appears to be the operational center of that campaign. Rate Your Music identifies ADÉLA, born Adéla Jergová, as a Slovak artist currently based in Los Angeles, while the “KGB” release write-up said its video was filmed at the Los Angeles Theatre.

(adelaxo.com) The social briefing supplied for this assignment described the announcement as a reveal of her debut album’s core reference point: 2010s pop, specifically the 2014–2015 stretch. Earlier fan and archive chatter had pointed to an album coming, but those posts did not amount to an official release statement. (rateyourmusic.com) The clearest verified label-linked marker before this week was the “KGB” description calling the single a first glimpse of the debut album era. ### What comes next in the rollout? Aug. 1 is the first date currently listed on ADÉLA’s official site, with a show at Chop Shop in Chicago. Aug. 2 is listed for Lollapalooza, followed by European festival dates in the Netherlands, France, Britain and Ireland later in August. September and October dates on the same schedule include Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Washington, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Nashville, Atlanta, Austin, Dallas, Seattle, Portland, Denver, Phoenix, Los Angeles and Mexico City.
