Fifth Harmony have premiered the promo video for their European debut single Sledgehammer.

The five-piece girl group - who found fame on The X Factor USA - have dropped the video for the Meghan Trainor-written track on YouTube.

Beginning with the fivesome all in white as they perform a signature dance routine for the track, it later introduces shots of them wearing colourful floaty dresses as they sit on what appear to be trapeze rungs.

Men with hammers, a wind machine and scaffolding also appear at various points throughout the promo - which clocks in at almost four minutes.

The girls might not be very well known on these shores yet, but they have one fan in Cheryl Fernandez-Versini - who has been bigging them up on Twitter.

She wrote on Sunday: "Who has heard of fifth harmony ? I love them. What is your favorite song of theirs ?!!"

Who has heard of fifth harmony ? I love them. What is your favorite song of theirs ?!!

The group was put together by mentor Simon Cowell on the 2012 series of The X Factor USA and have since had a series of hits.

They are set to perform on the UK version of The X Factor on 7 December - which also happens to be the day the single is released.

Everyday is pay day
Swipe my card, then I do the nae nae
You're talking to a lady
I want a Kanye-ye not a Ray J

So that's a no, no
I'm a Maybach and you's a Volvo
This convo beat like Dre-e
I already know whatchu tryna say

You say that you a baller
And I see you tryna holla
But that ain't how I was brought up

'Cuz that's what my momma taught me
So yo ass better show me some respect
