The Vamps' Brad: 'I've been writing our debut album with James McVey for a couple of years'

'Can We Dance' hitmakers The Vamps are due to release their debut album this spring and frontman Brad Simpson told Yahoo! OMG that it has been something he's worked on for a couple of years now.

Heartthrob Simpson explained that it's high time the record is released because he has spent the past two years writing it with fellow member James McVey: "Our album's coming out in mid April - we're 99% sure. Me and James have been writing this for about two and a half years. That's why we really connected, because we're such keen songwriters, and we're kept that going."

"We've co-written a lot of the album, and Tristan (Evans) has been been helping produce lots of the songs."

Simpson then opened up about the band's forthcoming run of dates with Taylor Swift, which will take place in London at the O2 Arena in February, and joked that McVey has such a crush on her that the rest of the group will just act as his 'wingmen':

"We've met Taylor already – only once so far. James is already getting on pretty well with her. I think he's got bit of a crush. We're going to leave it to James and just be his three wingmen. She seems like the type of girl who would come backstage and chat – she seems really friendly."
