In the caption, the 41-year-old encouraged her followers to pre-order the record. "Who's pre-ordered their signed vinyl???" she penned. "There's only a limited run available of the LP so make sure to get one before they're gone! Pre-order before 6pm tomorrow (Monday 16th) to get exclusive pre-sale access to the Michael and Michelle tour."

Michelle and Michael first announced the new EP on Friday. "*BIG NEWS!!!* Michael & Michelle are going on a UK tour AND releasing a new EP!!!" they wrote. "'Don't Go Alone' will be released on 8th December, and a limited edition run of signed LP’s are available to pre-order now!"

On the EP, the musical duo are once again joined by Mumford and Sons musician Chris Maas on percussion, Tommy Heap (Willy Mason) on piano and drums and Carlos Garcia (Dermot Kennedy, Paolo Nutini, John Newman) on guitar.

Next January, Michael and Michelle, who first met on the set of Downton Abbey, will embark on a UK tour, hitting stages in Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Belfast, Stroud, and finally the iconic London's Lafayette. 

Michelle previously explained what attracted the pair to a career in music. "There was something about that time after the series [Downton] had ended... About looking at something with fresh eyes and feeling nervous about what's ahead," she said. "Then suddenly we were just writing music. 

"It's a whole different set of skills and vulnerability. Acting tends to start with what's already written on the page. Music can begin anywhere. It's different and very freeing."
