Shane Filan to release first single 'Everything To Me'

Former Westlife member Shane Filan is making a comeback as a solo artist 15 years after the boyband formed.

He is set to release his debut solo single Everything To Me on 25 August.

"Working on solo material is something I had always dreamed of doing, and I'm incredibly happy with the results," the 34-year-old said.

"Everything To Me is a very personal song to me lyrically, it is such an upbeat and optimistic record, perfect for the summer."

Westlife bid a fond farewell to their fans in June 2012 with a goodbye tour. He was forced to file for bankruptcy at around the same time.

The Irish singer fell victim to the property crisis and was left unable to pay his debts. However, a year later the popstar and father-of-three is back with his new single – watch Shane's live performance of 'Everything to me':
