Aimee Anne Duffy, professionally known as Duffy, has recently updated her social media after a lengthy disappearance from the spotlight. The post hints her comeback to the music scene in 2020.
The Welsh singer has fueled speculation regarding her return to music. The “Mercy” hitmaker took to her social media accounts by posting an image with a simple caption “#2020″. The update has become the first post on her Facebook page since 2007, while it is the only post on her verified Instagram account.
If the comeback comes true, Duffy’s return to music will be her first musical work in ten years after Endlessly, her sophomore album released back in 2010. The album was commercially disastrous, charted at number 9 on UK Albums Chart with “Well, Well, Well” becoming the sole single which peaked at number 41 on UK Singles Chart.
Meanwhile, the 35-year-old singer is better known for Rockferry, the debut album that became phenomenally successful both commercially and critically. The album hit the summit on UK Album Chart back in March 2008, spawning hits like “Mercy” which peaked at number 1 and “Warwick Avenue” at number 3. Furthermore, Rockferry won Best Pop Vocal Album from Grammy Awards in 2009 and, in the same year, British Album of the Year from BRIT Awards where the singer herself took British Breakthrough Act and British Female Solo Artist prizes back home.
While Duffy has been taking a hiatus from music, she did embark on an acting role. She landed a role in 2015’s crime film Legend to which she also contributed several songs such as “Whole Lot of Love“.
