The Return of Liberty X!
We spoke to you about two months ago and you were still working on the album – have you finished now?
Kelli: It’s being mastered today and then that’s it! So as of tonight we will have the finished album, which will be very exciting for us.
So what have you been up to over the past few weeks then – just hitting the promo trail or what?
Kelli: Yeah, we did lots of photoshoots at the beginning… Since we last saw you we went into photoshoots for teen magazines and stuff like that. We went on a radio tour, which was wicked, just up and down the country in a van with just our bags and each other, which was fun. We had a right laugh on the radio tour. What else have we been doing? Putting the very finishing touches on the album.
Jessica: Road shows.
Kelli: Yeah, the summer road shows, gigging – out in fields around the UK!
Talking of live shows, are you planning to tour?
Michelle: I think we’re going to see how the single and album does. Hopefully, if it does really well, and if it does then we’d love to do another tour and we’ll probably announce the dates around Christmas Time-ish. That’s if everything goes well.
What’s been the response to the single, ‘Song 4 Lovers’?
Jessica: It’s been really good actually. A lot of DJs have said it’s the best song we’ve done so far and it’s going to be a No. 1 and all that, so it’s been really positive.
Kelli: People seem to be quite surprised by it, don’t they? People seem to think it’s quite different, but I don’t think we see it as too much of a departure from our sound
Tony: It’s still at the stage with the track where I think people haven’t made up their mind or they’ve only heard it once. This kind of track is something that we have to incubate for a while to get into people. I think people are still unsure or making up their mind about it, but we’ve always believed that this track was going to be a grower and it’s going to surprise a few people and they’re not going to know what to think. We’re so confident in the song because it works for us and all our friends and families – it kind of seeps into them and they grow to love it. We’re hoping for that kind of effect in general.
Now you’ve finished the album, has it turned out how you had all hoped?
Michelle: Yeah, we wanted to make this album like what people want to hear from Liberty X – which is fun, upbeat club tracks, a couple of ballads, really good vocals, really fun lyrics and just be a party album. And that’s what it is – it’s going back to basics and is just a really good pop album, definitely.
