The Wanted tease US tour with Chris Brown

The Wanted have teased plans to tour the US with Chris Brown this summer.

The boyband revealed that they have spoken to the American star about joining him for his North American jaunt in July and hope the exposure will introduce them to the urban market.

Max George told Capital FM: “Scooter – our manager – told us the other week that they’d spoke. We met Chris Brown – he came in and saw us at the studio when we were rehearsing – and he was actually really sound.

“He said he liked our music and stuff. He’d spoke to Scooter since then and said he’d love to do a song with us so who knows? If it’s the right song then we’ll do it.”

Tom Parker added: “There’s talk about us, he’s got his American tour coming up in July, maybe we’ll go on that for a few shows which will be cool. Hitting that urban market – The Wanted go urban.”

The Wanted’s new single ‘Chasing The Sun’ is available to download now in the US and will be released in the UK on May 20.
