Dark Sky Island is the eighth studio album by Irish singer and composer Enya, released on 20 November 2015 by Warner Bros. Records. After the release of her previous album, And Winter Came..., Enya was unsure of her next career move, so she decided to take a break from music, which lasted three years. In the spring of 2012, she started to write and record new material for a new album with her longtime collaborators, producer and arranger Nicky Ryan, and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. Enya gained inspiration for the title track and the album from the 2011 designation of Sark in the Channel Islands as a dark-sky preserve and a collection of Roma Ryan's poems on islands. Dark Sky Island received positive reviews from critics and was a commercial success upon release. It peaked at No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart, Enya's highest position on the chart since Paint the Sky with Stars, and No. 8 on the Billboard 200 in the United States. Elsewhere, it reached the top five in nine countries. A deluxe edition features three additional tracks. Enya promoted the album with a worldwide media tour that included performances of some songs from the album.
