Avril Lavigne signs to Travis Barker’s record label DTA, teases first single

Avril Lavigne has teased the release of a brand-new single after signing to DTA Records.

The Canadian pop-punk star has joined the roster of blink-182 drummer Travis Barker's label – which made their first signing, TikTok star jxdn, in May 2020 – with the announcement arriving alongside a load of photos of Avril and Travis popping champagne and throwing cake at each other.

"Let’s fuck shit up!" posted Avril. "Just signed a record contract to Travis Barker’s record label DTA Records! Should I drop my first single next week?"

In the comments, she also wrote: "So excited to release this new music."

This will be Avril's first new song since 2019's Head Above Water. In February this year, she confirmed that she would be releasing a pop-punk album in the near future: "It’s done!” she wrote to a fan. "Music coming soon.” Before then, Avril had been in the studio with MOD SUN, John Feldmann and Machine Gun Kelly.
