Fifth Harmony have told fans that their first album should hit shelves later this year.

The band released their 'Better Together' EP in 2013 after finding fame on the 2012 series of the US X Factor.

They recently confirmed on Twitter that they were in the studio working on new tunes and Dinah Jane Hansen has announced that their debut record should be unveiled in the autumn.

When asked by a fan during a Radio Disney Twitter Q&A when their album would be released, she replied:

"Sometime this fall!"

Fifth Harmony meanwhile are one of the support acts for Austin Mahone's upcoming North America tour.

The run, which kicks off on July 25 and will finish in September, will also feature The Vamps.
