Avenoir is the upcoming third studio album by English singer-songwriter Calum Scott. The album was initially scheduled for release on 12 September 2025 through Capitol Records, [1] but was later delayed to 10 October. [2]

Upon announcement, Calum said its title references John Koenig's The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows , a word-construction that defines "avenoir" as "the desire that memory could flow backward". "Avenoir refers to how we move through life like a rower moves: always moving forward but facing backward, seeing where we've been, but not where we're going. The songs on this album speak to both regret and sorrow, and to undying love — a plea to live life to its fullest." [3]

The album will be supported with The Avenoir Tour across the UK, Europe, North America [4] and South Africa. [5]

Avenoir was executive produced by Scott's long term collaborator Jon Maguire [6]
