Fans soon began to speculate what could be happening, with ideas ranging from tour announcements to a new EP.
New music wouldn’t be out of the question – back in January, Sara and Keren were in the studio with co-writer and producer Ian Masterson working on new material.
However, it seems more than likely the girls a prepping a re-release of their 1995 album Ultra Violet.
The record was released internationally when the duo didn’t have a major label deal and remains unavailable on streaming services in the UK.
In fact, Ultra Violet, released in some territories as I Found Love, has never actually been released in the UK.
Last year, Sara and Keren regained the rights to Ultra Violet and the follow-up Exotica, so some kind of re-release is a strong possibility.
We’ll keep you updated.
