Next year sounds right.
She's only just finished the album. I think she's still mixing, too. She has a lot to do to prepare for releasing the album (album art, tracklisting, photoshoots, finding a distributor, etc). And I get the impression she's doing this alone, so it's a thousand times harder.
I bet she'll say this is her most personal record - and I can see why. She's worked her socks off creating this album. A lot of artists just go in & record their vocals. Vanessa is pretty much doing everything - writing it, recording it, producing it, arranging it, mixing it, etc.
