Amy Winehouse has said she intends to release her follow-up to 2006's 'Back To Black' in the new year.

The singer is currently writing the record and “can't wait” to play her new songs for fans.

“The album will be six months at the most,” she told the Metro, adding: “It’s going to be very much the same as my second album, where there’s a lot of jukebox stuff and the songs that are... just jukebox, really.”

Winehouse is thought to be working with 'Back To Black' producer Mark Ronson on her new album.

Meanwhile, the singer made her first public appearance alongside new boyfriend Reg Travis at the premiere of his new film Psychosis earlier this week.
