Andre deal confirmed, album in the pipeline
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 6 July 2009
So, more from the file marked Peter Andre. And more details of the former jungle star and occasional chart botherer’s new record deal have been revealed. He has signed to an independent label called Conehead which is allied to Nova Sales & Distribution who, in turn, utilise Universal’s physical distribution network. The first release from the new deal will be a single called ‘Behind Closed Doors’, which will be available for download from August. An album is expected to follow in September.
Manager Claire Powell has confirmed the deal and album plans, telling CMU: “He has developed as an artist and the album will show a more musically mature approach to his lyrics. For the first time he has been involved in every aspect of making his album. He is thrilled to be releasing what he considers to be the album he should have released a long time ago. This record will surprise a lot of people. He’s worked with some of the best writers and producers in the US and come back with what could turn out to be one of the biggest albums of the year!”
Elsewhere in Andre news, while plugging his new musical ventures on the Chris Moyles Radio 1 show last week, the reality TV star said his recent high profile break up from model Katie Price has resulted in “the worst few months” of his life. Asked if the couple might ever make up, Andre said: “No. No, what’s done is done. Let’s not forget the fact there are far bigger problems in the world. But when you are in your own situation it feels like the biggest problem in the world. The hardest bit that’s happened out of all of this is acceptance and when you can accept it then you can move forward. I’m going through the acceptance stage, which is very difficult”.
