First look at Adele’s new music video for ‘Send My Love (To Your New Lover)’

It arrives on 22 May

XL Recordings has posted a teaser trailer for Adele’s new music video, which will see her ditch her usual funereal wardrobe for some colour.

The 16-second clip doesn’t give away much, but it’s Adele so it doesn’t really need to to get fans excited.

The video looks to me more minimalist than the narrative-led one for ‘Hello’ though, seeing her standing tall in a darkened studio.

It was filmed in London by director Patrick Daughters, getting its premiere during the Billboard Music Awards on 22 May before hitting Vevo soon after.

‘Send My Love (To Your New Lover)’ is the third single to be taken from her record-breaking latest album 25.

The singer is currently midway through a mammoth tour, which is set to conclude with a headline slot at Glastonbury on 25 June.
