Little Mix's Jade announces her debut solo single, "Angel Of My Dreams"
Jade, AKA Jade Thirlwall of BRIT Award-winning pop group Little Mix, has announced her forthcoming debut solo single, "Angel of My Dreams".
Jade co-wrote "Angel of My Dreams" in LA alongside Steph Jones (Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso), Pablo Bowman (Calvin Harris' Miracle) and producer Mike Sabbath (RAYE). The track explores her love/hate relationship with a pop industry she's been at the heart of since her former band Little Mix launched in 2011.
“I didn't want to do a safe first single, that was really important to me,” Jade states. “I'm setting the tone of who I am as an artist on my own. I want people to hear it and be like 'what the fuck is that song?'. My worst nightmare is for someone to hear my song and go 'that's nice'.”
hen Little Mix announced their hiatus in 2022, Jade started to set her solo career in motion across multiple studio sessions with collaborators including MNEK, Cirkut, Lostboy, RAYE, Lauren Aquilina and Dave Hamelin alongside Mike, Steph and Pablo.
"What I'm going for is a pop punch to the face. I want people to be like 'oh my god, I didn't expect that' – but then want to listen to it again," she says. “I'm so proud of it and I can say that with chest. The fans have waited long enough so now we just want to give it to them".
"Angel Of My Dreams" is set for release on 19 July, and is available to pre-save via jadeofficial.com.
