The star also begins work on his new album

Patrick Wolf has has revealed he is to release his first DVD, documenting his 2007 tour finale show at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire.

The film, directed by photographer Brantley Gutierrez, will screen on a Virgin television channel in an abbreviated form before the DVD’s release later in 2008.

In a posting on his MySpace page, the singer-songwriter also revealed that he is beginning work on his fourth album, saying: “[I’m] trying to communicate some of the journeys, misadventures and experiences from the last couple of years since 'The Magic Position' was completed.”

Wolf also writes that “trying to remember how to live outside of hotels and six different airports each week is a lot more confusing and tricky than I expected, but life is showing me marvels and slowly vitality, inspiration, and productivity are returning to my days and nights”.

Last year, a MySpace post from the flamboyant singer stated that he was retiring from live performances – however, the post was soon taken down.
