Shayne has been back in the studio working on new music material. Working with the brain box behind Kylie Minogue's unforgettable track 'I Should Be So Lucky', the star is freshening up his pop roots ready for a summertime release.

"I've been writing stuff for over a year now, in and out the studio. My last session was just in London with Mike Stock – he was the bee's knees back in the day."

"I think the most important thing when you want to release something is that you get with the times and at the minute the pop industry seems to be thriving again. As long as your stuff sounds fresh and up to date and the fans like it…you're on to a winner."

It’s been nice to be able to do what I want to do as an artist. For me, I don’t focus on one style, I don’t believe in sticking to one genre as you tend to alienate yourself. This new album will show people something new in terms of vocals.
