All Saints are finally back, having set the date for their comeback single 'One Strike' as February 26.
The girl group are BACK
After 12 million record sales, five number one singles, two BRIT Awards and a pair of multi-platinum albums, the girl group are ready to dominate the industry once more with a "canny, charming reminder of everything huge swathes of the global pop audience loved about All Saints in the first place".
Shaznay said of the new song: "When I write, I just think about what's on my mind. The lyrics came from somewhere very real. Nic was going through a lot of things at that time. That was at the forefront of my mind because it was the heaviest thing going on."
Nic explains how the song was written as a direct response to the younger Appleton sister's marriage dissolving: "We spoke for hours and hours on the phone. The first few times I heard it in my car. I couldn't stop crying because I could hear so clearly what it was about."
Not only do they have plans for a brand new single, but their first album in a decade, 'Red Flag' will follow, being released on April 8.
Natalie says: "We didn't force ourselves into this situation and it couldn't have happened at a better time in all of our lives. I just missed being with the girls. It makes us happy. Listen, if you can work with your favourite people, then why not? I have such a good time and I spend more time laughing and having fun than I do working."
Shaznay added: "The album could have been made a lot quicker if we spent less time joking around while making it!
"Seriously, I got on such a roll writing and recording with the girls again, we've started getting material for the next album together already. This couldn't feel any more right."
