Peter Andre is back in the studio writing new music with Kaiser Chiefs star Ricky Wilson.

The Mysterious Girl hitmaker is hard at work on his next album and has called on pal Ricky, who’s written massive hits like Oh My God, I Predict a Riot and Ruby, to collaborate on tracks for the project.

He told new! magazine: “As my new album is well under way, it’s nice to get some familiar faces and great songwriters to collaborate with.

“Last week I spent the day in the studio with Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson and we’ve written a great song together.”

Peter’s session with Ricky came a few weeks after he recorded a track with rapper Lady Leshurr, havingpreviously revealed: “I’ve been working hard on my new album.

“As well as writing, I’ve had some great friends and artists come down to the studio. Lady Leshurr popped in. We’ve written a great song together. I can’t wait for you to hear it.”

And the Behind Closed Doors singer has also been collaborating with Take That frontman Gary Barlow, after they struck up a friendship during his virtual ‘Crooner Sessions’ gigs last year.

Peter recently revealed the Back For Good singer not only encouraged him to work on new material, but he’s also involved with the project.

“I did a Q&A on my YouTube channel and was asked what made me decide to get back in the studio and actually stick to it,” explained the singer.

“Randomly, I got the push from two people. One was [son] Junior telling me to write something cool, current, and fresh.

“The other was Gary Barlow. Gary and I did one of his ‘Crooner Sessions’ last year in the first lockdown and afterwards I sent him songs I had written and he basically told me to get my bum back in the studio and release some music.

“So now I’m working on two projects – one album that I plan to release soon, and another separate project with Gary. Watch this space!”
