A huge UK boyband have parted ways with their teams and are plotting a comeback.
New Hope Club shot to fame in 2015 after being signed to The Vamps' own record label, Steady, before eventually joining them on various tours. Consisting of lead singer Blake Richardson, 24, George Smith on vocals and guitar, also 24 and former X Factor star Reece Bibby, 25, on vocals, bass and guitar, the group have amassed millions of fans.
But in recent years, the trio have remained quiet on the UK front and have found fame across the globe with their hits including Permission, Let Me Down Slow and Call Me A Quitter. But after making tough decisions, they have parted ways with their previous teams and instead are now "navigating" their future.

We are now lucky enough to call this great city our home. We will continue to work together as a band from here moving into the future.
"2023 has been full of unforgettable memories as well as some of the biggest challenges we’ve had as a band. Together we've had to make some very difficult decisions. Moving into 2024 we are coming with a fresh new team behind us and lots of new music to share. The decision to change things behind the scenes has brought the three of us closer and more determined than ever. It has also given us the much-needed time to reflect and think about how, moving forward, we can bring more of our authentic selves to you."
