Mollie King has announced details of her brand new music ‘Hair Down’.
The track sees The Saturdays star reunite with pop super producer Brian Higgins (Xenomania) to create an ‘in your face pop banger’, which will no doubt excite fans of King who have been desperate to hear new music from the star following the release of her debut solo track ‘Back To You’ last year.
Speaking ahead of the singles release, Molly says “I’ve spent the last few months working hard in the studio developing my sound and experimenting with my solo music.”
“I’m a huge fan of pop music myself and was thrilled about working with Brian Higgins again on this record.”
“Brian wrote and produced ‘All Fired Up’ which was one of my favourite Saturdays songs; he totally gets pop and I think we’ve collaboratively come up with some amazing records that the fans are going to love hopefully as much as I do!”
The rest of 2017 looks set to be rather busy for Mollie King…
As well as the release of ‘Hair Down’, it was announced last month that Mollie would be taking part in the 15th series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
Following in the footsteps of her Saturdays bandmate Frankie Bridge, King will take to the Strictly dance floor alongside Alexandra Burke, Aston Merrygold, Brian Conley, Charlotte Hawkins, Chizzy Akudolu, Davood Ghadami, Debbie McGee, Gemma Atkinson, Joe McFadden, Jonnie Peacock, Richard Coles, Ruth Langsford, Simon Rimmer and Susan Calman.
“I’ve always watched it with my family and it always looks so fun. Who doesn’t want to learn to dance?” Mollie said of her decision to take part in the hugely popular BBC show.
