Preparing to release her new album, “Brightest Blue,” on July 17 has consisted largely of nerve-racking livestreams with shoddy Wi-Fi and existential questions about the future of her industry. Goulding, 33, has spent the past few months sequestered in a cottage just outside Oxford with her husband, the art dealer Caspar Jopling. The pandemic, of course, foiled her plans. “I was super fit, I had a good routine and I thought, now is really the right time for me, mentally, to take this on again,” she said. She began preparing to re-enter the spotlight after getting married last fall. The break, tacked onto the long tail of “Delirium,” amounted to a five-year gap between LPs - an eternity for an in-demand artist, particularly one who delivered her first three records in roughly the same span. When Ellie Goulding finally finished promoting her 2015 album, “Delirium,” the exhausted British pop singer and songwriter took a step back to enjoy time at home.
