Lee Ryan, after the success with the renowned boy band "Blue," a revelation of recent years, makes his solo debut with his self-titled album!

Lee Ryan, born in Chatham, Kent, on June 17, 1983, is currently one of the most beloved pop stars in the world, especially in Italy. After the massive success with Blue, a well-known and appreciated boy band, even by music greats such as Stevie Wonder and Elton John, who didn't hesitate to duet with the boys on two of their most famous hits "Signed, sealed, delivered I’m yours" and "Sorry seems to be the hardest word," and after topping the charts with his bandmates and placing several of their albums and singles at number 1, here he is now presenting himself to the public as a solo artist with the debut single "Army of lovers" which has immediately climbed to No. 1 on the list of best-selling singles in Italy, followed by "Turn your car around."

"Army of lovers" is one of those pop songs that strike you right in the heart thanks to its sweet melody and the romantic words of the lyrics on a guitar background. The music video is one of the most played on music channels and was shot in Spain, in Palma de Mallorca. The video starts with the handsome singer floating on a pool's surface and continues with him walking soaked through the hotel under the astonished looks of people... the end of the video reveals how the charming Lee Ryan ended up in the pool... practically falling from his room's balcony while looking at a note with a girl's phone number! But even before its official release, the track was already known to fans, as it was sung live at the six concerts Blue held in Italy and had already won over the public, who simply couldn't resist such a sweet song! "Army of lovers" is just one of the singles taken from the new solo album of the "Blue chick," which bears the same name as the singer "Lee Ryan," on sale from August 5. It's no coincidence that the album carries the singer's name, as it represents his essence!

The album's success is immediately felt, climbing the charts to reach the third position. The album offers different tones suitable for any mood, while maintaining the "love" theme; furthermore, the album departs from the now predominant American R&B to open up to soul melodies in Marvin Gaye style. It goes from the aforementioned "Army of lovers" to the cover "Turn your car around," which will be the second single released and will come out next October. Then it reaches the very romantic "When I think of you" - You're my past, my future, my all, my everything - with its slow and soft rhythm. Then there is "Real love" that with a lively tone expresses how it feels when you experience a "real love" that isn't just for your boyfriend/girlfriend, but also for family, or simply for "your own people," "Parking" showing us how even a simple car can become a romantic place when there is love, perhaps while looking at the "the bright lights of the city," "Wish the whole world knew," "Close to you," the sensual "Miss my everything," "Daydreamer," "Jump" - There is no reason to be far apart, we should be two sides of one beating heart, so don't be scared to let me love you, we're standing on the edge of something else, just count to ten and let go of yourself, somehow we'll get by, we're sky high, so baby won't you. . . Jump take that leap of faith, take that leap with me, we can make it if you just believe. . . -

An important message... you must never be afraid to jump.... you must always live all the moments that life offers because "we know that life was never meant to last" and Mr. Ryan, writing this song, reminded us of what many often forget... finally, the album closes with the tracks "How do I" and "In the morning." After the scandals he has been involved in over the past few years, Lee Ryan is now ready to show everyone what he is truly made of, more mature and determined than ever, he has already started promoting his singles worldwide and also in Italy, where we have already seen him perform live in no less than nine shows! And we can only wish this young man all the luck in the world who truly has a lot of talent to offer.
