The Wanted are a British-Irish boy band consisting of group members Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness and Nathan Sykes; former member Tom Parker died in 2022. The group was formed in 2009 and signed a worldwide contract to Universal Music, Island Records and Mercury Records, and was managed by Scooter Braun.[1][2]
The Wanted's released their debut album, The Wanted in 2010. It peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart.[3][4] and spawned three UK top 20 singles: their debut single, "All Time Low", which topped UK Singles Chart,[1] "Heart Vacancy", which reached number two, and "Lose My Mind", which reached number nineteen. Their follow-up album Battleground, was released in 2011 and reached number five in the UK and number four in Ireland. The album lead single, "Gold Forever", was released in aid of Comic Relief and peaked at number three in the UK. The third single, "Lightning", hit number two in the UK.
In early 2012, the Wanted achieved success in the United States and Canada with their single "Glad You Came" which became their second UK number-one.[1] It peaked at number three for four consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, the highest American chart entry by a British boy band at the time. Their follow-up singles "Chasing the Sun" and "I Found You" reached the top spot on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart. The band's compilation album, The Wanted (2012), reached the top 10 on the Billboard 200.[5] In 2013, the Wanted starred in their own reality series on E! entitled The Wanted Life.[6] On 22 January 2014, the band announced that they would be taking a hiatus in order to pursue individual solo projects.
According to the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), the band has been certified for 600,000 albums and 2.4 million singles in the UK.[7] Their nominations and accolades include 14 World Music Awards, two Brit Awards, an American Music Award, and a MTV Video Music Award. On 8 September 2021, The Wanted had announced that they would be reuniting for a greatest hits album and a performance at a charity concert at the Royal Albert Hall in support of band member Tom Parker,[8] who had been diagnosed with brain cancer in late 2020.[9] Parker died from the illness on 30 March 2022.[10]
History
2009–2010: Formation and debut album
The Wanted were formed in 2009 through mass auditions held by Jayne Collins, who also put together the Saturdays and Parade.[11][12] The audition process, which saw more than 1,000 people attend, took over nine months. Just George, Parker and Sykes were involved at the start, and Kaneswaran and McGuiness joined later through the process. The group revealed in their autobiography that after they were informed of the line-up, seven more people were re-auditioned before they were signed to Maximum Artist Management and Geffen Records.
The group were credited with co-writing five of the thirteen tracks on the album. On 25 July 2010, they released their debut single, "All Time Low". The song was co-written by Steve Mac (who also produced it), Wayne Hector and Ed Drewett. It hit number one in the UK and spent 17 weeks in the UK top 40. The second single "Heart Vacancy", again written with Hector, was released on 17 October 2010. It peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. The group's third single from the album was "Lose My Mind", which reached number 19 on the UK Singles Chart following a performance on The X Factor. The group's eponymous debut album was released on 25 October 2010 and peaked at number four in the UK and has since been certified Platinum in the UK. Between 28 March and 15 April 2010, the group embarked on the fifteen-date Behind Bars theatre tour, which saw them play in twelve UK cities. They were supported by Lawson, Twenty Twenty and Starboy Nathan.
2011–2012: Battleground and The Wanted: The EP
In January 2011, the group began to work on their second studio album. The album featured writing credits from the band members on ten of the fifteen tracks, and contributions from Steve Mac, Wayne Hector, Ed Drewett, Diane Warren and Guy Chambers. The album's lead single, "Gold Forever", was released in aid of Comic Relief[13][14] and debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart. In July 2011, the group released the album's second single, "Glad You Came", which became their second number-one single. It was number one for two weeks, and stayed in the top ten of the chart for six weeks. The single also reached number one in Ireland and remained there for five weeks.[2] The song also charted in some European territories, and was very successful in Australia. The third single from the album, "Lightning", was released on 16 October 2011, peaking at number 2 in the UK and number 5 in Ireland. The fourth single, "Warzone", was released on 26 December 2011, with the music video and radio debut coming in early November 2011. On 7 November 2011, the group's second album Battleground was released. It debuted at number 5 in the UK and number 4 in Ireland. It has since been certified Platinum in the UK. In addition to shows in the United Kingdom, including T4 on the Beach, V Festival, and the iTunes Festival, the group supported Canadian singer Justin Bieber in Brazil on 8 and 9 October 2011 and Britney Spears on her Femme Fatale Tour at the Manchester Evening News Arena on 6 November 2011.
Between 15 February and 9 March 2012, the group embarked on "The Code" tour, to promote the release of the album. The 16-date arena tour saw the group play in thirteen cities in England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland. Known as #TheCodeTour, each concert featured an interactive element that linked to the group's official Facebook and Twitter pages.
In a bid to break into the United States market, the Wanted went on a short promotional radio and club tour of the United States, touring between 17 January to 8 February 2012. The success of the 10-date tour led to the group's official release of their debut American single, "Glad You Came". It peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since sold over 3 million copies there. Their debut American EP, The Wanted: The EP, was released in April 2012, debuting at number seven in the US and number eight in Canada. "Chasing the Sun" was released as the band's second official single there, peaking at number 50 on the BillboardHot 100 whilst also reaching number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart. "Chasing the Sun" was released on 21 May 2012. On 22 May 2012, the band opened and performed at the first Q102's Springle Ball concert. On 14 June 2012 the band performed a concert at New York City's Beacon Theater, which was also broadcast live on music television station Fuse. The group visited Australia and New Zealand for the promotion of their extended play in August 2012.[15] Following their promotional tour of Australia, the group headed to the US for a number of promotional concerts.
2012–2014: Word of Mouth, The Wanted Life and indefinite hiatus
The Wanted began working on their third studio album shortly after the release of Battleground on 4 November 2011. In May 2012, "Chasing the Sun" was released as the album's lead single, and the third single from the band's The Wanted: The EP in the United States. Around this time, the band also premiered a brand new track called "Satellite", which was co-written by Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic. In August 2012, the band filmed a music video in Los Angeles, reportedly for their brand new single, "I Found You". However, when the video for "I Found You" was released in October 2012, it was a different one. The band later revealed that they had reshot the video in London, not being satisfied with the first one. The original was later released as the "fan version" on Vevo. "I Found You" was released on 5 November 2012 as the album's second single.[16] The band confirmed in September 2012 that the album would contain a number of collaborations, including tracks with Pitbull, LMFAO,[17] Chris Brown, Rita Ora[18] and Dappy.[19] In November 2012, the band announced that the album had been pushed back from the original release of 3 December 2012 to February 2013 at their request; the reason stated for this delay was to perfect the album, and "tweak out a few insecurities involving certain tracks". It was confirmed that the album would feature a track co-written by fellow label-mate Justin Bieber.
In early February 2013, it was announced that the Wanted would star in their own reality series called The Wanted Life, produced by Ryan Seacrest.[20] In the United States, it premiered on E! on 2 June 2013.[21] In April 2013, the band announced the release of the third single from their third album, titled "Walks Like Rihanna", named after Barbadian singer Rihanna.[22] It was released on 23 June 2013 and debuted and peaked at number 4 on the UK Singles Chart. On 9 September 2013, the band announced that their new album Word of Mouth would be released on 4 November. It was preceded by the release of "We Own the Night" and "Show Me Love (America)". On 25 July 2013 the group was spoken to by police after champagne was thrown out of a hotel window, soaking poet Todd Swift. A police statement said "Police were called at around 12.20pm on Thursday, July 25, to a report of a man having been verbally threatened and having had a liquid substance thrown over him at a hotel in Marylebone."[23][24][25][26] On 7 October 2013, it was announced that the Wanted would embark on their first world tour, the Word of Mouth World Tour, in 2014. The tour included shows in the UK, mainland Europe, the US, and Canada.[27] While the band originally announced, in January 2014, that they were simply taking a hiatus in order to pursue individual solo projects.[28][29]
2021–present: Reunion, Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits and Parker's death
Since 2020, the band had been teasing a reunion.[30][31][8] On 5 September 2021, it was reported that a reunion would be officially announced on 8 September, with new music and performances announced, including raising money for cancer charities in support of band member Tom Parker,[32] who was diagnosed with an inoperable stage 4 glioblastoma in late 2020.[33]
On 8 September 2021, it was announced that the band would return with a greatest hits album titled Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits, set to be released on 8 November. The album would also include new music. Additionally, the band were set to perform at a charity concert by Tom Parker titled "Inside My Head – The Concert" at the Royal Albert Hall on 20 September 2021, the band's first performance together in seven years.[8] The concert raised money for the cancer charities Stand Up to Cancer and The National Brain Appeal.[34]
On 13 October 2021, the band released "Rule The World", co-written by Max George, their first single in seven years. This was closely followed by their greatest hits album, Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits, on 12 November 2021, which included another new song titled "Colours", co-written by Nathan Sykes, alongside all the fan favourites and some newly recorded acoustic tracks. Their Christmas single, a cover of East 17's "Stay Another Day", was released 5 November 2021 and also features on the deluxe version of Most Wanted. An acoustic cover of "Remember" by Becky Hill and David Guetta was released as the first promotional single off the album.
They kicked off their twelve-date Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits Tour on 3 March 2022 in Glasgow, which saw them travel up and down the UK performing to all their fans before finishing on 17 March 2022, in Liverpool. They were joined by special guest HRVY across all twelve dates. The band teamed up with the iPledge charity, where they donated £1 from every single ticket sale in aid of The Brain Tumour Charity.[35]
Parker died on 30 March 2022, as stated by his wife.[36] The band's single "Gold Forever" surged in sales and streams following the announcement, and the song debuted at number 2 on the UK Official Singles Sales Top 100 on 1 April 2022.[37] On 27 April 2022, The Wanted released a new version of the song, titled "Gold Forever (For Tom)" in tribute.[38] All proceeds of the single sales will be donated to The Brain Tumour Charity.

Биография
Британо-ирландская группа The Wanted просуществовала пять лет и за это время успела обрасти верной армией поклонниц и завоевать мировые чарты, включая американский Billboard Hot 100. Музыканты говорят, что добиться успеха им помогло следование мечте, исполнение которой превзошло их самые смелые ожидания.
История создания и состав
История создания The Wanted началась в 2009 году в Лондоне, где Джейн Коллинз, основавшая группы Saturdays и Parade, объявила об очередном музыкальном прослушивании. Группа создавалась как классический бойз-бенд, где участники выступали как солисты и бэк-вокалисты, при этом обладали привлекательной внешностью и умением двигаться, то есть справлялись с задачей одновременного услаждения слуха и взора.
На отбор, который длился в течение девяти месяцев, пришла тысяча парней, и в результате осталось пятеро. Все они как на подбор были музыкальны и хороши собой, не оставляя слушательницам шанса не влюбиться.
Макс Джордж родился в 1988 году. Он жил в Манчестере, с детства мечтал стать футболистом и до поры до времени даже играл в составе клуба из Престона, однако в итоге творческие устремления взяли верх над спортивными. Прежде чем стать участником The Wanted, Макс успел поработать в коллективе Avenue, который как раз распался накануне.
Сива Канесваран — одногодка Джорджа. Ирландец из многодетной семьи, он с ранних лет занимался творчеством и сейчас не выходит из домашней студии, где сочиняет песни, играет на гитаре и экспериментирует со звуком. До прихода в группу уроженец Дублина успел поработать моделью и сняться в телесериале.
Том Паркер, ровесник приятелей, родился на северо-западе Англии. Он научился играть на гитаре, беря пример со старшего брата, и даже пробовал свои силы в шоу талантов The X Factor, но отбор не прошел. Тогда парень стал выступать с трибьют-группой Take That II, откуда и пришел в The Wanted.
Джеймс Макгинесс был младше приятелей на пару лет. Уроженец Ноттингема и воспитанник католической школы, он с юности занимался танцами и играл на музыкальных инструментах, включая фортепиано и ударные.
Нейтан Сайкс оказался самым младшим в составе, но занимался музыкой дольше других. С шести лет он уже вовсю пел и выступал, в 2004 году принимал участие в национальном отборе на «Детское Евровидение», а чуть позже оказался в Книге рекордов Гиннесса как обладатель самого мощного голоса среди сверстников. Позднее певцу пришлось перенести операцию на голосовых связках, после которой он продолжил карьеру.
Музыка
В 2009 году увидел свет первый сингл All Time Low, который сразу обеспечил бойз-бенду лидерство в британских чартах и заразил энтузиазмом продолжить начатое. Дебютная пластинка вышла в октябре 2010 года и получила то же название, что и сама группа, — The Wanted. Альбом обрел на родине музыкантов платиновый статус и обеспечил их поклонниками, которые за неделю разобрали билеты на весенний тур по стране.
Год спустя дискография коллектива пополнилась пластинкой Battleground, содержащей хиты Gold Forever и Glad You Came, с которыми британцы начали штурмовать американский рынок. Планы удались: песня Glad You Came на четыре недели попала в топ-3 Billboard Hot 100, а трек Chasing the Sun возглавил чарт Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs.
Альбомы, украшенные фотографиями участников, продавались миллионными тиражами, а группа получала одну музыкальную премию за другой, включая Wоrld Music Awаrds, BRIT Awаrds и Amеrican Music Awаrd.
В 2013 году The Wanted выпустили диск Word of Mouth, состоящий из 14 композиций. Пластинка записывалась в Лос-Анджелесе, где музыканты работали совместно с Pitbull, LMFAO, Крисом Брауном, Ритой Орой и Даппи. Участники работали в студии и выступали с концертами, параллельно позволяя себе «озорничать»: они имели неприятности с полицией после того, как облили мужчину шампанским из окна отеля в Марилебоне.
Распад
7 октября 2013-го группа объявила, что в будущем году отправляется в первое мировое турне, включающее концерты в Великобритании, Европе, США и Канаде. Однако уже в январе 2014-го The Wanted заговорили о вынужденном перерыве, который необходим участникам для реализации сольных проектов. В итоге перерыв затянулся на года и оказался фактическим распадом коллектива.
После расставания исполнители занялись своими делами. Макс Джордж объявил о подписании сольного контракта, но за пять лет записал всего пару синглов. Сива Канесваран сочинил в 2016 году песню для «Евровидения», а в 2019-м выпустил собственный трек. Джеймс Макгинесс снимался в танцевальных шоу, Том Паркер работал диджеем и играл в мюзиклах, а Нейтан Сайкс в 2016-м представил полноценный сольный альбом.
The Wanted сейчас
В конце 2020 года стало известно, что Том Паркер болен раком мозга: у него обнаружили четвертую, неоперабельную стадию глиобластомы. Тогда же начались разговоры о том, что группа планирует воссоединение, дабы собрать средства для поддержки товарища и финансирования дальнейших медицинских исследований по поиску новых методов лечения болезни.
Осенью 2021 года коллектив объявил о выходе альбома Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits, который представил лучшие песни и пару свежих композиций. Тогда же музыканты поддержали Паркера на благотворительном концерте в Королевском Альберт-холле в Лондоне.
3 марта 2022 года группа отправилась в концертный тур по городам Великобритании, который начался в Глазго и закончился в Ливерпуле. Выступления проходили в сотрудничестве с благотворительной организацией I Pledge Charity, а часть выручки от билетов шла в фонд The Brain Tumor Charity. 17 марта состоялся последний концерт The Wanted, а 30 марта Тома Паркера не стало.
