Little Mix’s band hiatus began back in 2021, giving the girls a break to focus on their solo careers. And focus they have, with Leigh-Anne set to release her first solo album and Perrie Edwards' singles 'Forget About Us' and 'Tears', all eyes are on Jade Thirlwall.

Initially Jade kept her cards close to her chest after announcing back in 2022 that she had signed a solo artist deal with RCA Records.

A year later in November 2023, Jade finally gifted her fans with a cheeky hint at what she’d been up to and fast forward to June 2024 and she finally announced her debut single, 'Angel of My Dreams'.

Now we've had 'Angel of My Dreams' and her IG (Instant Gratification) track 'Midnight Cowboy', Jade has announced her second single 'Fantasy'.

So when is Jade's next single coming out? Is she making an album? Here’s what we know...

Is Jade Thirlwall making an album?

Yes, Jade has been working on new music. But she has not yet confirmed exactly what she plans to release.

Towards the end of March 2024, Jade took to her Instagram to post a dump of photos and videos of her life. Amongst the cute selfies and the adorable animals, she slid a cheeky video of herself in the recording studio.

The video itself had no sound but even soundless, the video had fans SUPER excited for her solo music dropping.

Since then she's dropped her first single 'Angel Of My Dreams', her IG track 'Midnight Cowboy', has teased 'That's Showbiz, Baby' and announced her second single.

According her recent interview with The Face two more singles have been confirmed to be on the way. 'That’s Showbiz, Baby' - which has been described as 'Angel Of My Dream's "clubrat sister" - and 'Fantasy' - which was described as "a transcendent disco track with Donna Summer-style vocals".

When is Jade's next single being released?

On September 30th Jade announced her next single 'Fantasy' is coming out October 18th.

The song was written by JADE, Mike Sabath and Pablo Bowman who worked together on her hit debut 'AOMD'.

Jade told The Face that the song is all "about sexual fantasies and feeling safe enough with someone to tell them what you want to do – kind of like a love song, but a fun, kinky one".

'Fantasy' is also set to come with another "big-budget music video" like 'AOMD'. According to the tabloids Jade is going to be in Los Angeles to shoot the video with top director David LaChapelle.

David has worked with legends like Amy Winehouse, Avril Lavigne and Gwen Stefani.

When was Jade Thirlwall's debut single released?

Jade's debut solo single 'Angel Of My Dreams' is came out on Friday 19th July and her second single has been rumoured to come out in November.

'AOMD' which has been described as a 'shape-shifting banger' explored her love/hate relationship with the pop industry she's been at the heart of since her former band Little Mix launched in 2011.
