Ex-G4 star Jonathan Ansell is set for solo success - see him on Thursday's GMTV show

24 Jan 08

Jonathan Ansell, the lead singer of G4, is poised to become a huge solo star.

The sensational tenor who shot to fame three years ago with the pop opera group on the X Factor, has signed a five album solo deal.

Jonathan achieved amazing success with the classically-trained group, who announced their split earlier this year. They performed their last concert this August, having notched up three hit albums, and sales of two million, in the three years they were together.

New album

Now Jonathan is set to release his debut solo album 'Tenor at the movies' on February 18th. It's a disc of classic movie theme tunes like 'Now We Are Free' from Gladiator and 'Here's to the Heroes' from Dances with Wolves.

"I had a fantastic time," says Jonathan. "I look back on G4 with huge pride. We put a lot into it, our hearts and souls, and we really developed and grew. But I wanted to leave while we were still pleased with what we had done, and I felt we had run our course.

"So although I'm sad the group ended, it is ultimately a good feeling. And what's important for me is just to be able to sing. I love entertaining people, and touching them with what I've been lucky enough to be blessed with."

Biography

Jonathan Ansell was born in Bognor Regis in 1982.
He joined the West Sussex Boys Choir at the age of eight, touring extensively with them.
He also learned to play the violin and trumpet.
He progressed to the Guildhall School of Music when he was 18.
When the X Factor auditions were advertised on TV, he persuaded his busking chums from the Guildhall to enter, and the rest is certainly television history.
G4 called it a day at the end of July 2007.
