About JLS

Since bursting onto the scene in 2008, Aston Merrygold, Marvin Humes, JB Gill, and Oritse Williams, collectively known as JLS, have achieved phenomenal success, becoming a household name and a staple of the UK music charts. Their journey began on the eighth series of The X Factor, where they captured the nation’s hearts with their infectious personalities and undeniable talent, finishing as runners-up. From that moment, their career skyrocketed.

Their debut single, “Beat Again,” released in 2009, immediately hit number one, followed swiftly by their self-titled debut album, which also topped the charts and went multi-platinum. This success story continued with a string of unforgettable hits that dominated radio airwaves and dancefloors across the country. Classics like the anthemic “Everybody in Love” became instant singalong sensations, while the smooth R&B-infused “One Shot” showcased their vocal prowess and undeniable chemistry. Other notable hits include the high-energy “The Club Is Alive,” the heartfelt “Love You More,” and the instantly recognisable “She Makes Me Feel.” Over their initial career, JLS amassed an impressive collection of awards, including multiple BRIT Awards and MOBO Awards, and sold millions of records worldwide, cementing their status as pop royalty. Their music is characterized by soaring harmonies, catchy melodies, and a blend of pop, R&B, and dance influences, all delivered with a charisma that connects with audiences of all ages. After a highly successful run, they embarked on a farewell tour in 2013, leaving fans longing for their return.
