Former JLS star Aston Merrygold has confirmed he will release his debut solo album next year.

Speaking to The Mirror at the Pride Of Britain Awards, the singer revealed: "I've been hidden away in a cave for the last 12 months now.

"I've been trying to find myself, but I'm in a good place right now and I'm ready to go."

When probed for a release, he added: "In the New Year, things will be ready to go. I say New Year but that's not even long! (It will be) four months-ish."

Merrygold - who signed his solo record deal in September - went on to tease that his new LP will include more than one collaboration, but refused to give away any clues.

Stuck on the darkside,
Reaching for daylight,
Nothing wrong with all right,
But that ain't me

I make suggestions,
Answers to questions,
All that they told me
Was let it be

Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down

Countless obstacles in my life,
I just can't seem to do right,
But I keep trying

It seems they wanna knock me down
Like Mya, still I rise,
It won't happen this time, no,
I made up my mind

Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down

Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Yeah

Mountains in my way, I can't lie,
At times they seem too high,
But I just climb

I told them that I won't stop 'til I reach the other side,
They don't get to decide, no,
I made up my mind

Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down

Nothing stays the same,
Everything's meant to change,
See, I'm meant to be free,
So take your chains off me

I'm gonna turn it around,
Nothing can stop me now,
Some things are meant to be,
This time it's about me

Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down

Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Yeah

Stuck on the darkside,
Reaching for daylight,
Nothing wrong with all right,
But that ain't me

He teased: "I can't give away the juicy gossip just yet, The first people to know will be the fans. They'll know straight away: album, single, all that via my Twitter, Instagram and blog.

"I'm trying not to smile, but it is exciting!"
