Disclosure have announced that they will be taking “some time out” from music this year.

In a handwritten letter posted to Twitter yesterday (February 8), the electro duo promised that 2017 would see the return of their Brighton festival Wild Life and “a few other bits we can’t mention just yet”, but they would otherwise be “enjoying some much needed rest”.

The pair, brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence, have released two UK Number One albums since 2013 and risen to headline stages at festivals such as Reading & Leeds and Bestival.

The full statement read: “Thank you all so much for your support over the last seven years. We were 15 and 18 when we began this incredible journey and it’s been filled with shows bigger and better than our childhood minds could have ever imagined, amongst many other unbelievable moments and achievements. We really cannot thank every single one of you enough. You changed our lives forever and enable us to do what we love best on this planet. This year, we are only going to do a few special things including the return of our festival Wild Life and a few other bits we can’t mention just yet. For the most part however – we’re going to be taking some time out and enjoying some much needed rest. We will be back!”
