Singer Morrissey has scrapped plans to retire this year after signing a new record deal.

He is now making plans to release another album, Contactmusic reported.

The former The Smiths frontman, who suffered a string of health woes in 2013 which forced him to cancel concerts, looks set for a brighter 2014 after joining the roster at Harvest Records, a new label imprint of Capitol.

He is working on a new studio album, his first since 2009's 'Years of Refusal', with acclaimed producer Joe Chiccarelli, who has previously collaborated with Alanis Morissette and The Strokes, among others.
