Two years since their last album release, pop's most enduring super-group, Westlife finally emerge from the studio to present their new single What About Now.

Produced by long term collaborator Steve Robson, What About Now is the first taster of the band's brand new sound. Although instantly recognisable as a Westlife classic, complete with soaring melodies and rousing lyrics, the track injects an undeniably fresh production; bound to delight Westlife fans and pop enthusiasts alike.

Mark Feehily of the band says "We wanted the first single from our new album to be somewhere between the Westlife sound our fans know and love, and the new direction we're heading in. We've been experimenting with a fresh vibe on this record, after eleven years we see this as phase two of the Westlife story."

Spending much of 2009 hidden away in studios across Europe and the US, Westlife have been quietly creating their most exciting album to date, to be released November 30th 2009. Working with pop's finest craftsmen, including grammy-nominated Ryan Tedder (Leona Lewis Bleeding Love, Beyonce Halo.) as well as Steve Robson (James Morrison, Take That) the band has emerged with a collection of contemporary tunes, poised to surprise even the most ardent critic.


Westlife's new material is the first since 2007's Back Home, which became the band's seventh number one album, spending two months in the Top Ten and selling over 1 million copies in the UK alone.

No pop band can compare to Westlife's extraordinary success. During their 11 years at the top of pop's hierarchy, the band has sold over 40 million records globally. In the UK alone they have scored nine multi-platinum albums and a record breaking 14 No.1 hits (behind only Elvis and The Beatles). They have also picked up innumerable awards and appeared on hundreds of magazine covers around the world. They are the only recording artists to win the prestigious 'Record Of The Year' an incredible four times (other top awards include two BRITS and an MTV Europe Award). Westlife are also the biggest selling Arena act ever, holding the record for the most concerts held at Wembley Arena, an incredible 23.
