Becky Hill opens up about reuniting with her The Voice mentor Danny O'Donoghue

The lovely Becky Hill joined us backstage at Hits Live Liverpool on Friday 15th November, before she took to the stage to perform some of her biggest hits to the sell-out crowd. Speaking to presenter Fleur East, Becky spoke about her supporting The Script, her plans for Christmas this year, as well as revealing when fans can expect her 'proper debut album'.

Of course, if you didn't already know, Becky shot to fame when she appeared on The Voice UK back in 2012, with The Script's Danny O'Donoghue in the judging seat at the time. Now, Becky is set to join The Script on their 'Sunsets & Full Moons' tour in 2020, showing just how far she's come.

Speaking about the upcoming shows with The Script, Becky revealed how she's feeling about being reunited with Danny, she said, "It’s a bit weird for me because when I was on The Voice when I was 17, Danny was one of the judges. So this is a big full circle moment for me, ‘cause I’m going on tour with the guy who used to mentor me. I haven’t since him since (the show). He might just be like ‘Oh nice to meet ya!”

She's not only supporting The Script, Becky is also doing her own UK tour, performing some of her biggest hits across England. She said, "It's going to be a bit mad, it's 21 dates supporting The Script on their arena tour around Europe and the UK which is going to be mad. And then there's like six days in between coming off that tour and going on my own. It's six dates around the UK, but I can't really say the UK as I think it's just England."

During the interview, Becky also revealed to Fleur when fans can expect her real debut album, admitting her 2019 release 'Get To Know Becky Hill' wasn't supposed to be, and isn't her debut album!

She said, "I've been working for the past seven years on my debut album, which should be coming not next year but the year after, 2021. Which is great because I don't think I'll ever get a chance in my career to do that again and nor should I."

"I'm really excited to have an album full of brand new music that people wouldn't of heard of."

Becky Hill rose to fame after being a contestant on the first series of The Voice and reached the semi-final of the show with her mentor Jessie J. She scored a Number 1 hit with producer Oliver Heldens after appearing on his track 'Gecko (Overdrive)', and more recently collaborated with fellow Hits Live performer Sigala on 'Wish You Well'.

The fantastic line-up at Hits Live Liverpool includes, James Arthur, John Newman, Jax Jones, Sigala, Freya Ridings, Becky Hill, RAYE, Joel Corry and HRVY.
