The group - Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness, Parker and Nathan Sykes - will perform at the Royal Albert Hall, in London for Parker’s Inside My Head on November 12.

They wrote: “Here we go!! We are MEGA excited to announce that we are BACK and will be releasing our Greatest Hits Album on November 12th!!

“We’ll also be performing LIVE at the @royalalberthall as part of @tomparkerofficial ‘Inside My Head’ concert. It’s been far too long… Let’s do this.”
