“After the success of our first tour (which we think the mums just may have enjoyed even more than their kids) we’re planning our first arena tour for February and March of next year. We just want everyone to come along and enjoy themselves, so don your “Wanted” t-shirts and why not purchase a ticket-for-entry? It’ll be spiffing!”

The Wanted boys burst into our lives and the charts last summer, with their incredible debut single, ‘All Time Low’, storming straight into the number one spot. Followed by number two hit ‘Heart Vacancy’, they quickly built up a huge fanbase. Their self-titled debut album raced into the top five, and they have had over an incredible 30 million plays of their videos on YouTube. In March the boys were given the honour of releasing the official Comic Relief single for Red Nose Day. The single ‘Gold Forever’ became their third top five single.

Their latest #1 single ‘Glad You Came’ is the first from their hotly tipped second album. Written by Steve Mac, Wayne Hector and Ed Drewitt and produced by Steve Mac, this song brings a harder, club-influenced sound to the table for Jay, Max, Nathan, Siva and Tom. A dance floor filler, with a heavy bassline combined with the boy’s rock vocals, this track will have you raving from Dublin to Ibiza this summer.

Earlier this year the boys performed their first UK headline tour which had rave reviews from the press with The Times, Evening Standard and News Of The World giving the shows an amazing 4 stars. Proof, if ever it was needed, The Wanted are definitely not taking any prisoners when it comes to being the hottest new pop group on the planet!

Don’t miss the chance to see The Wanted live in Dublin and Belfast this coming March 2012!
