On 28 January 2013, it was revealed that the record label was that of sub-division RCA Records and that the group would be releasing their debut single in June. On 14 January, it was announced that Union J were in London recording their debut single that day.

On 22 April, it was revealed that Union J's debut single "Carry You" would be released on 2 June. On 5 June, the group revealed that their debut album was nearly finished, and were hoping to release it in either September or October. Speaking about the album, band member George Shelley revealed: "It all depends how well Carry You does because we've got loads of different sounds on our album at the moment that we’ve recorded. So if Carry You does well then we will do a second single that's sort of down that route and if it doesn’t do as well as we are hoping then we will do something a little different." The group later described their album as: "It's pop music but there's some stuff that people wouldn't expect. There's some funky summer vibes, some dance music, some ballads and a Californian vibe to it." On 4 September 2013, the album's artwork and title was revealed, and it was announced that it would be released on 28 October 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Union J (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
