Love Island’s Paige Turley is set to release a debut single after signing a record deal.
Paige previously auditioned for Britain’s Got Talent in 2012 where she performed for Simon Cowell.
Earlier this year Paige took part in the first ever series of Love Island, winning with now boyfriend Finley Tapp.
Six months on and Paige has got to work recording a debut album, following in the footsteps of her chart topping ex Lewis Capaldi.
Her first single, a cover of Artful Dodger’s Movin’ Too Fast, will be released on July 17.
Paige has worked with The House & Garage Orchestra and New State Records on the track, telling the Daily Mail: “Since leaving the Love Island villa I’ve been working on original songs but wanted to start putting some music out as soon as possible.
“During lockdown the opportunity to release one of my favourite house tracks with a 36-piece instrument arrangement was a total dream come true.”
She added: “I also found out that Robyn S (whose song I sang in the villa) had collaborated with The House & Garage Orchestra, so the record deal really did feel like fate!
“We chose an up-tempo song which I hope will become this summer’s feel-good anthem.”
Sharing a teaser of the single on Instagram, Paige told her fans: “V excited about this, had the opportunity to collaborate with @thehouseandgarageorchestra on this dance classic! ??
“The orchestra are made up of 36 AMAZING musicians.. I seriously cannot wait to perform it live with these guys!
“It’s gonna be out on Friday the 17th of July and will be available on pre order this week!”
Back in 2012, a then 14-year-old Paige performed Skinny Love for the Britain’s Got Talent judges
She told the panel: “I love to sing. I’m always singing. About three years ago I started singing.”
After the performance, David Walliams said: “I think you look and sound like a popstar. It was fantastic, well done.”
Amanda Holden agreed: “I honestly think you’ve got a really bright future ahead of you.”
“You are absolutely fantastic,” concluded Simon, “You have a really unique voice and I really, really like you.”
