Girls Aloud’s Kimberley Walsh reveals band are releasing new music 10 years after split.
Fans of the 00s girl band rejoice, because Girls Aloud are back – and you only need to wait a few months to hear their new music.
Band member Kimberley Walsh revealed that the group will be releasing some new music, and it should be available to fans by May.
Last year marked 20 years since the girl group were crowned winners of talent show Popstars the rivals.
The spin off of Popstars, which was responsible for forming the 00s hit bands Hear’Say and LibertyX, put band members Cheryl Cole, Kimberley Walsh, Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, and Nicola Roberts together to form Girls Aloud.
The band released music over a 10 year period, with hits including Sound of the Undergroud, The Show, and Call the Shots, and were named the "Most Successful Reality TV Group" in the 2007 edition of Guinness World Records.
The group had 21 top 10 singles and four top 10 albums, and amassed millions of fans over the years, becoming one of the most successful British girl groups of the 00s.
After 10 years of making music together, in fighting in the group Girls Aloud disbanded, with many of them going on to pursue unsuccessful pop solo careers, and officially called it quits on March 20 2013.
However, Kimberley Walsh has now revealed that the band are getting back together to celebrate their legacy, almost exactly 10 years after splitting up and 20 years after forming.
Kimberley, 41, said "20 years is a long time and the love that we still feel for Sound Of The Underground and some of the songs from the first album are still huge."
The band plan on dropping some new material very soon, with the mum of three teasing that there was only a few months to wait until fans could hear their new release
She continued: "We've got some fun alternative versions of songs lying around and little re-releases just to kind of mark that because, you know, it's a big deal," Although the band will be re-releasing alternatives to their biggest hits, Kimberley did confirm they wouldn’t be creating any brand new material as a quartet, following the devastating death of bandmate Sarah Harding in 2021.
Last year the remaining band members re-released a 7 inch vinyl of their debut single Sound of the Underground, with all profits going to The Sarah Harding Breast Cancer Appeal , a branch of The Christie Charitable Fund.
Kimberley shared what fans can expect from their new releases, saying: "I think there's already been one re-release of Sound Of The Underground with different girls singing different lyrics, which is quite fun. "I mean, if you're a fan, it's fun, I'm not sure how much fun it is if you're not really into Girls Aloud but yeah, just things like that.
