The 20-year-old former 'Gossip Girl' actress said she had been touring while working on the new album, reported Aceshowbiz.
"I personally can't write on the road. You're on a bus with ten people and you never have enough time to think inside tour own head. You're in touring world," she said.
However, she managed to find a way out to write new songs for the new record with fellow band member Ben Phillips.
"As the songs came, common themes started to develop. It wasn't intentional, but they naturally do as a writer," she said.
