Ella Henderson who finished 6th on this year's X Factor has announced she has signed a record deal with Sony!
QUOTE Ella Henderson has signed a record deal with Sony. The former X Factor contestant confirmed the news during an appearance on Ireland's The Saturday Night Show. Henderson told host Brendan O'Connor: "Today's the first day I can announced I'm signed with Sony. "I'm just so, so excited to go into a studio and finally do what I've always wanted to do. I have already written stuff, but I can't wait to write new stuff because I haven't written all through the period of being on that show and I've experienced so much and so many emotions that I never felt before so, It's gonna be really exciting." She said of the period since her exit from The X Factor: "It's been absolute[ly] manic. Since the show I've come away and, do you know what, it's probably the best thing that's ever happened to me, because when I was in the show I felt like I was under a lot of pressure... It's a tough one and I am young, so I did feel the pressure a bit, but coming away from it I've just had so many opportunities now." The 16-year-old also revealed that she had doubts about her singing before entering the reality show and would wonder when she would get her big break. "It's amazing what this show has done to me," she said. "If I look back six or nine weeks ago, nobody had a clue who I was... I think at the age of 16 it's something that a lot of girls and boys want and It's something I thought was so out of reach from me. "I thought there's so many talented people out here, how am I going to get a break? How am I ever gonna do it? It just shows you never know what's round the corner." Henderson also talked about performing for the Amy Winehouse foundation, describing it as "an honour" and calling the late star "a massive icon of mine". http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/s103/the...ecord-deal.html So so happy and really looking forward to her album!!

She's got a powerful voice but not much technique/control and it's quite bland. Bit of a foghorn really.

I would say she got way too much of technique/control. She's just so technical in the way she sings. In the liveshows, pretty much every notes she did were emotionless and was just her using the perfect technique to hit those. It was boring. Her voice isn't really that powerful. Like, she doesn't have that powerhouse voice. She just has a good range and very good techniques to belt notes, but it doesn't sound strong. I don't know how to explain it. |

She doesn't really have a reliable voice, but breaks quite alot but she does sing in a unique style.. It just depends on if she can release one or two hits.

I agree, she ended up shouting sometimes, with a bit of work she could be very good vocally, but I can't see her material being all that interesting and she'll only do well so long as Adele is off the scene. |

That's actually what I adore about her voice, when it breaks - it doesn't sound bad when it does, if anything it's the main thing that really makes me feel the emotion when she sings. It should sound bad, but it's one of my favourite things about her voice. Can't wait for this album <3 |

It depends on the genre she chooses to move into. She may not be aiming for Adele's market (although logically there's money to be made when Adele is off the scene and she may be coerced into it). |

Oh I think they'll go for the most obvious path for her, which is the Adele route. I don't think she's got much versatility either, but that might just be her total lack of personality.

It depends. She could be quite "poppy" if her label wants her to : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ocqEdXAB-g
She isn't going to give us some electro pop dance club banger, but I think she could do "acoustic uptempos". We'll see! |

A variety would be good but not to the degree where they have 12 different producers and it sounds like a compilation. One unknown producer and some underrated and forgotten songwriters. No well known covers.

I don't think she's got much versatility either, but that might just be her total lack of personality. X Factor makes some people think versatility is important with its pointless theme weeks but it's really not. Ella should just do her and see what happens instead of being pushed into generic pop. She has her own songs and style of singing which is most of the battle really, so she has a good chance of making it in the real world despite her tender years. She won't even need a big hit if Rebecca Ferguson's success is anything to go by or display personality if her or Emeli Sande don't need to. She draws comparisons with Adele but that is surely a massive compliment (she is actually a fan as well). It'll be interesting to compare her album with James Arthur's. She's a talent and I'm not writing her off til I see what she comes up with, it'll be the best album from a 16 year old I've heard anyway as she's quite level headed and mature. We will see... |

She's appearently working with Adele's writers
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a45...ebut-album.html QUOTE X Factor 2012 contestant Ella Henderson will team up with Emeli Sandé, as well as Adele songwriter Eg White, for her debut album.
The singer signed a record deal with Sony Music following her shock exit from the show, despite placing sixth in the competition. "I've always been a massive, massive fan of Emeli," Henderson told Heat. "I'm in awe of her for songwriting reasons. "I'm meeting with her soon, we've spoken but not met face to face. It feels so weird that I'm coming into a world with an artist I respect." Speaking about working with Eg White - who collaborated with Adele on 'Chasing Pavements' - Henderson added that she would love to meet Adele one day for a possible duet. "When I got the Adele tweet I was like, 'Ohhhhh my god'. She's world class. She's not been in touch, I hear rumours that she likes me. And it would be amazing to one day meet her and do a collaboration." Meanwhile, Henderson will perform her X Factor Boot Camp rendition of Cher's 'Believe' at the National Television Awards tomorrow night (January 23). |
