The Wanted

The five boys that make up hot new pop proposition THE WANTED are on a mission to bring some much-needed cool – and a fair bit of sexy - back to boyband land.

Though even tagging the five boisterous young men assembled in a buzzing East London drinkery a ‘boyband’ seems a fair bit off the mark – maybe ‘lad-band’ might better suit. These guys are a million miles away from the ‘stand-up-for-the-key-change’ school of dewy-eyed balladry and cheesy co-ordinated outfits usually associated with the term.

The band have been busy honing their edgy pop sound that incorporates elements of low-slung beats, anthemic rock dynamics and swelling modern pop melodiousness in a mix that is uniquely THE WANTED. There’s a palpable rough and tumble energy and down to earth laddiness to the fivesome when they’re together that makes it abundantly clear they’re not just band mates on the verge of pop greatness, they’re great mates.

The band have been busy the past twelve months travelling to Europe to co-write and record with some of the biggest names in pop. From Danish pop maestro Cutfather (Christina Aguilera, Pixie Lott, Santana) in Copenhagen and Rami & Carl Falk (‘N Sync, Britney Spears) in Sweden. And back in the UK they worked with hitmakers including Steve Mac (Kelly Clarkson) and Guy Chambers (Robbie Williams, James Blunt) to perfect their state of the art modern sound.

The debut single by The Wanted - All Time Low - is released 26th July.
