Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall has been in the studio working on solo music - from a release date, tracklist and collaborations to her confirmed new single 'Angel Of My Dreams', here’s what we know so far.
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.
Jade has kept her cards close to her chest since her announcement 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'.
So when is Jade's single coming out? Is she making an album? Here’s what we know...
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 and has teased two new songs 'Midnight Cowboy' and 'That's Showbiz, Baby'.
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.
Jade co-wrote 'Angel of My Dreams' in LA alongside Steph Jones (who worked on Sabrina Carpenter's 'Espresso'), Pablo Bowman (Calvin Harris' 'Miracle') and producer Mike Sabbath, who's worked with RAYE.
The pop star began working on her solo career shortly after Little Mix went on hiatus, having studio sessions with collaborators including; MNEK, Cirkut, Lostboy, RAYE, Lauren Aquilina and Dave Hamelin alongside Mike, Steph and Pablo.
