The first of the JLS lads to release solo material will apparently release his debut material early next year. He's been writing in the studio over the last two months with different people in America and the UK, including Autumn Rowe (Cheryl, The Saturdays, Cher Lloyd).

I'm excited about this. Aston seems to me like the one who, with the right material, make a success of himself as a solo artist. Especially if he's doing "Got to Dance" again next year.

I definitely think he has the best chance to become a solo success out of the 4 of them, interested to hear what he comes up with. I hope Marvin does some solo stuff too.

Looking forward to solo material from him, I wouldn't really be interested in any from Oritsé or JB. Interested to hear what sort of sound he'll go for. happy.gif

Small teaser-ette posted on his Instagram over the weekend: http://instagram.com/p/j3SSBHkoVF/

It would appear he's stayed with Sony for his solo deal. Craig Logan (off of Bros fame, who also looks after Dido and Cher Lloyd) is managing him.

Exciting trailer, I hope the material is good. I would prefer Marvin material though.

Marvin is doing an album but he's not singing on it - he's taking the Calvin Harris route of producing the tracks and getting other vocalists to feature on it. Would be shame to not put his (rather good) DJ'ing talent to waste I say.

Aston's still in LA atm working on material. Last I saw he was working with Jim Beanz who did some stuff on 'Evolution' album for the lads so that should be interesting.

So...the first fruits of this project are imminent, a year later! He signed his solo deal with Warner Music in August last year.

He's been in Los Angeles shooting what I can only assume is the video for his first single this week just gone (and teased it thus on Instagram: https://instagram.com/p/zXu73HkoUd/), with talk of an early spring 2015 release for the single release. Will be good to finally hear what he's been working on.

His official site has launched with a holding page and a rather amazing logo that apes the Motown one: http://www.astonmerrygold.com - announcements coming in the next two weeks I'm told!

Aston's been revealing bits of the artwork for his first single with the hashtag #AstonArtwork on Twitter all morning...et voila:



Looks really cool! It's a very different look from even what he did with JLS!

Big interview piece in today's Sun Bizarre column which reveals the title of his first single - 'Get Stupid'! First play will be at radio some time next week! Cannot wait!
