Little Mix are Jesy Nelson, Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinncok and Jade Thirlwall. All four girls auditioned for the X FACTOR UK in 2011 as solo artists. However, at the suggestion of judge and mentor Tulisa Contostavlos they joined forces to become Little Mix, the X FACTOR competition's first ever victorious group.  Having captured the hearts and minds of the UK with their winning chemistry, musical sensibility and breath-taking vocal prowess, the girls nabbed two consecutive No. 1 single's with their debut UK single "Cannonball" and "Wings," and are now preparing to conquer America with their old school pop and R&B sound.

In the past year, Little Mix have amassed a dedicated and loyal fan base with over 67 million cumulative VEVO views, 1 million Facebook fans and over 2 million twitter followers.  The girls are currently on a sold-out UK tour and will head to the US in March with further details to be announced.

Little Mix's debut album DNA will be released in the US Summer 2013.
