Untitled

Where We Are is the tenth album from Irish boyband Westlife's to be released on 30 November 2009 in the UK through Syco Music. The first single from this album will be "What About Now" released on 25 October 2009[2] as a digital download a day later as a CD single.[3]

Background

The song "Shadows" which has been confirmed to be included on the album was written by Ryan Tedder and AJ McLean for the Backstreet Boys' seventh album This Is Us but didn't make the track listing. It was subsequently purchased by record label boss Simon Cowell for Leona Lewis's second album Echo but it was decided that it better suited a boyband and was consequently given to Westlife to record.[4] "No More Heroes", co-written by Lindy Robbins, is also slated to appear on the upcoming album.[5]

Mark Feehily told the The Daily Mirror "We wanted the first single from our new album to be somewhere between the Westlife sound our fans know and love, and the new direction we're heading in. We've been experimenting with a fresh vibe on this record. After 11 years we see this as phase two of the Westlife story."[6]

Promotion

On 25 October 2009, during the X Factor results show, Westlife performed "What About Now". It was released online the same day.[7]
