The Wanted released their 2010 self titled album THE WANTED, April 24, 2012 to the U.S. market, and away they go! Their popularity has grown fast and furious since they came together to audition in 2009 in England at a mass calling of artists by Jayne Collins. So far they have slowly released 3 singles: ‘Chasing the Sun’, ‘Glad You Came’, ‘Lightening’, claiming number one spots in the U.K. from THE WANTED album.
Their second album BATTLEGROUND, 2011 has not been released in the USA to date. The Wanted are using a bit of marketing strategy with a slow release schedule to the U.S. markets. The first single ‘Gold Forever’ was released in March 2011 in aid of Comic Relief. In the meantime, THE WANTED album is selling at a record high.
Max George (age23), Siva Kaneswaran (age 23/Ireland), Jay McGuiness (Sounds like Chris Martin of Coldplay, age 21), Tom Parker (age 23), and Nathan Sykes (age 19), the band, became “The Wanted” after the audition and soon began working with producers Guy Chambers, Taio Cruz, and Steve Mac, and here we are, another Pop-Dance, Pop group from the UK, knocking it out of the park with sales and winning young girls hearts. They are sexy, look good, they sound good, and they appeal to a large demographic(13-45).
The group is versatile, each one of the group brings a unique quality and together they are infectious. They are a dance band, but do bring an individual flare with each number. The music not so much thought provoking as it is fun to dance to promotes a care-free spirit and maybe a little hell rising that is far more appealing to the younger audiences.
Look for the break-out artist in the future, possibly another Justin Timberlake, or Nick Jonas.
