Thanks to @Snitchseeker, we have this great interview from The Sun. In it, Tom talks very briefly about his new album and gives us a few more details – namely that there will be a band to back him up, and says that they have “have turned my nursery-rhyme songs into quite credible pieces of music.” From the interview:
DRACO MALFOY is the Hogwarts star you would least expect to swap magic for music.
But actor TOM FELTON, who plays the muggle-hating blond wizard in the Harry Potter films, has landed a record deal.
He has signed to indie label Six Strings Productions, who posted this on their Twitter page: “Tom Felton has signed and the album is very much on its way…”
And it turns out Tom’s musical talents are up there with his acting abilities.
He writes his own tunes, sings well and is pretty handy with a guitar.
Until now music has always been just a huge hobby, second to acting. But that is set to change.
Tom said: “I’m a keen musician. Me and my mates have a great time jamming and recording stuff.
“We have a great band behind us and have turned my nursery-rhyme songs into quite credible pieces of music. But you definitely won’t see me on the broomstick with a guitar.”
I’ve had a listen to some of his old material from two previous EPs on t’internet – and liked what I heard. It has a touch of McFLY and THE KOOKS about it.
Given Tom is already a big name due to ten years at Hogwarts, it’s not going to be difficult for him to shift a few copies.
He’s a record company dream.
