UAE dance-pop group Hollaphonic are hoping to break into Europe with a single starring reality TV star Vince Kidd.

Ahead of their performance at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Friday (November 21), the duo have revealed their next release was recorded alongside The Voice contestant Vince Kidd.

The singer is familiar to millions of music fans after reaching the final round of the UK edition of the show in 2012.

The London-based vocalist also found fame on the fourth series of The X-Factor as a member of the band Futureproof, appearing under his real name Matthew Protheroe.

Understood to be entitled Dangerous, the fifth official single from Hollaphonic is expected to be released in early 2015, ahead of the February release of debut album Personal Space.

“We’re hoping this will break us into the UK market,” said one half of the band, Olly Wood.

It follows from their recent single Runaway, which starred another notable vocal talent – Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter Aaron Camper, best known as a member of Justin Timberlake’s backing band The Tennessee Kids.
