The team behind the success of Robson & Jerome is launching the solo career of stage star Darren Day. RCA A&R consultant Simon Cowell has drafted in Mike Stock and Matt Aitken to produce a double A-side single, coupling covers of Cliff Richard's Summer Holiday and Bachelor Boy. Promotional plans centre on three prime time TV shows, including the National Lottery Live, to coincide with the release on May 27. Cowell says, "We are approaching it in a similar way to Robson & Jerome - it's a cover version and it's launching off a fairly hefty TV tie-in. We're hoping for a number one, but you can only set the records up to the best of your abilities and then hope the public like it."
