Singer Duffy has released her first track in five years, after taking a break from the spotlight, following her rape and kidnap ordeal.

Duffy kept the harrowing four-week rape and kidnap ordeal secret for years before opening up about the heartbreaking experience a few months ago.

The 35-year-old singer announced the release of emotional ballad River in the Sky on her Instagram page today to her 197,000 followers.

Duffy shared a retro-feel black-and-white photograph of herself in addition to audio of the new track.
