Calvin Harris has confirmed that Rihanna, Dizzee Rascal, Example, Ellie Goulding and Florence Welch will appear on his new solo album.

Titled '18 Months', the album sees Harris assembling a star studded line-up of collaborators and guest vocalists with Kelis, Ne-Yo and Dillon Francis also involved in the record.

Tweeting the news of his album, due out in October, Harris said: "My new album is called 18 Months and features Kelis, Rihanna, Example, Nicky Romero, Ellie Goulding, Tinie Tempah, Florence, Dizzee Rascal, Neyo, Ayah, Dillon Francis."

It is not clear which collaborations will bring fresh material. For example, Kelis, Ne-Yo and Example tracks are all likely to be the already released singles whilst it is known that Florence's contribution is a brand new song done following Harris' chart topping remix of her single 'Spectrum'.

The Rihana song on '18 Months' could be 'We Found Love' but it has not been confirmed.

Meanwhile, Jessie Ware has revealed an interest in working with Harris at some point in the future.
