Universal Music has used the first day back in the office of the new year to announce that former Neighbours and ’80s pop star Jason Donovan will release a brand new album in March.
As yet untitled, the new album is currently in the final throws of production, with a forthcoming tour of the UK coming off the back of his third place finish in the UK’s version of ‘Dancing With The Stars’.
“It feels great to be going back in the studio,” he said in a statement. “I know exactly how I want the new album to sound and I’m as excited as I’ve ever been about a record. I want to give a massive thankyou to my fans for all their support in 2011, here’s to a brilliant 2012!”
The new Jason Donovan album will be released in Australia on Friday March 16.

I like All Around The World album better than this. Jazz is not for Jason Donovan.

Hey Rini,
You’ll see on the new release schedule this week that the album has been delayed ’til April.

It’s mostly cover album. But the classy ones. Like from Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. There is a cover of quite new song Make Love that we can listen on youtube. Polydor will release this album in March 2012. So the sour past with Polydor is forgiven, maybe.
He had an album through Polydor before. A first non cheesy album that failed in the UK market. And it was not released worldwide.
Finally he can step away from his bubblegum past.

Hey Anonymous #4,
No word on Cher Lloyd’s album at this stage and because we’ve not received any new release schedules thus far this year, we can’t give you any indication of the singles that are released this week either.
The record companies only arrived back yesterday and it’s generally a slow and steady start-up as they get their collective heads around what’s happening for the year.

Hey Anonymous #2 and Ian,
No word yet on whether it’s a covers album or an originals. All the details we’ve got thus far are contained within the article.
We assume a UK release will happen at the same time.

Wow! That was unexpected…but totally welcome, thought! Do we know if it’s to be another covers album, or one full of new material? Either way, I’m excited!
