Former Hear’Say singer Danny Foster says he isn’t ready to turn his back on the music business. He says he is planning to launch a solo career after taking a month long break in the Bahamas.

But he adds that wants to steer clear of formulaic pop music.

“People are sick of the format,” he told the Daily Mirror.

“I’m really into my music and taking some time out gives me the chance to find myself. After 2 and a half years of working 20 hour days it’s like ‘Did I really do that?’ I’m just taking stock of things.”

“When I get back I’ll be concentrating on my career, sorting stuff out with the record company.”

“I definitely want to get back in the studios in the next six months.”
