Once the news broke that George Shelley had quit Union J, all the talk turned to an impending solo project from the X Factor star.
The 22-year-old Capital FM Breakfast Show presenter has been busy working on brand new material this year, and already has a fan in his co-host Dave Berry.
"I'm in the studio quite a lot," George told Digital Spy at the Capital Summertime Ball this past weekend. "Songwriting is a passion of mine, so I'm never going to stop doing music.
"I actually played Dave one of my songs the other day."
Dave added: "I sent George a song that some songwriter friends of mine had written to get his opinion, and George sent me one back.
"It's sounding really good. It does, honestly."

George Shelley officially left Union J on March 3 this year, wanting to focus on his broadcasting and acting career for the immediate future.
It followed his high-profile appearance on ITV's I'm A Celebrity! Get Me Out Of Here back in November, where he finished runner-up after eventual winner Vicky Pattison.
The star also addressed rumours about his sexuality in an emotional YouTube video back in February, bravely telling fans that he isn't going to put a label on it.
"I've had girlfriends that I've loved and they've been amazing periods of my life," he said. "But I've also had boyfriends.
"And I just want you to know that whether I decide to be with a girl next or a guy next, it's because I love them and it shouldn't be a big deal."
